### 2/5 — Used to work

*2019-09-16, version 2.6.1*

Installed it on my new phone and it won’t ask for microphone access. The app asks me to manually allow. Go into privacy settings to manually allow and the app is not there. Needs updating. Very good app when it worked.

### 3/5 — Incompatible ios 12

Une maj ?

### 2/5 — Good, with manageable quirk

*2019-05-15, version 2.6.1*

I changed my rating from five stars to two because I got a new iPhone XR and it doesn’t not work on it. I went to settings to turn the microphone on, but it didn’t prompt me to allow this app access. The app probably needs to be updated for new models of phones. 
Below is my previous review:

Does not pick up my low E string.  I just fret up 5 and it detects it as an A.  I have paid more than $30 for a stand alone tuner that I have had to manage the same way. 
Useful and simple and always with me.

### 2/5 — Реклама на весь экран

*2018-09-28*

Реклама на весь экран без возможности закрыть. Разочарован. Используйте GuitarTuna

### 2/5 — Geht so

*2017-12-27*

Ob der Tuner tut, was er soll, kann ich nicht sagen. Das Social Media Teil jedenfalls nicht. Aufzeichnungen sind sofort weg, wenn man raus geht, speichern ohne Bild geht nicht und Bilder werden nicht angenommen. Sehr sehr schade.
Gerade das Tool könnte spannend sein für Musiker.

### 1/5 — Kein Zugriff auf Mikrofon mehr möglich

*2020-02-19*

Nach einigen Jahren habe ich mal wieder versucht, diese App zu nutzen, un die Stimmung meines Instruments zu messen. Durch Veränderungen in iOS benötigt sie die Freischaltung zur Nutzung des Mikrophons in den Datenschutzeinstellungen. Dort findet man sie aber nicht mehr zur Auswahl und kann ihr somit das Recht auch nicht geben. Ergo:Die App ist vollkommen nutzlos geworden.

### 1/5 — ??

*2019-05-03, version 2.6.1*

I can’t use the app because I can’t enable the microphone on my phone

### 1/5 — Used to be a good app, now can’t get past the ads unless I’m willing to download them

*2018-08-22, version 2.6.1*

Used to be a good app, now can’t get past the ads unless I’m willing to download them. Not gonna use anymore, going to get a different app!!!!!

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2015-10-20, version 2.6.1*

Tried it because it had drop d tuning unlike guitar tuna. This app needs a lot of work. Terrible tuner, free is too much to pay for it.

### 1/5 — Not even worth free

*2015-07-03, version 2.6*

Horrible all around ... Slow, bad display ... couldn't get it off my phone fast enough.

### 1/5 — What the hell?

*2015-04-13, version 2.6*

This was a very useful app before the last update.  Now its just aweful! Why couldn't you have left it alone like it has been for at least 3 years?

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time.

*2014-08-08, version 2.5*

This app didn't work at all. It wouldn't pick up the correct string even when I tried to manually select it. The auto select would jump from string to string when I was playing the same string the whole time. When it did actually get the right string it wouldn't pick up that I was changing the tune of the string. I'm sorry but this app is garbage...
