### 2/5 — Usually works

*2023-12-17, version 2.7.0*

But lately it hasn’t. Good app when it works

### 3/5 — No sound w/os 17

*2023-11-27, version 2.7.0*

Not sure why, but it just stopped playing any sound…everything else is able to play sound. Didn’t come back after restart of app or even a reboot. Bummer.

### 1/5 — Cant get rid of ads to actually use it

*2022-01-18, version 2.6.0*

Popup ads kerp from being able to use unless you want yo get crypto or something else they are pushing.

### 1/5 — Buttons 😩

*2021-12-06, version 2.6.0*

It’s literally just a picture of a uke… You’re able to play the chords with clicks of buttons but they won’t help tune to get those chords. Don’t recommend 😒🤚

### 1/5 — Ukele tuner

*2021-07-24, version 2.6.0*

BMW advertisement keeps cutting in and won’t go away.
Tuner doesn’t tell us if we are in tune or not - needs to be like the guitar tuner.

### 4/5 — okay, i guess

*2021-03-27, version 2.6.0*

it made my ukelele sound decent, but i think it is still out of tune. from my observations, it has come to me that different brands of ukulele’s sound different so it was kinda tricky, but it was ok.

### 2/5 — Frustrating design

*2021-03-21, version 2.6.0*

The ad buttons are so close and adjacent to the tuning buttons, you can’t tune your ukulele without hitting an ad every three attempts. Actually, horrible design. Go to another app.

### 1/5 — This is the worst ukulele tuner ever

*2021-02-09, version 2.6.0*

This is probably the worst ukulele tuner that I have ever gone or just guitar tuner in general. I have gotten multiple different ukulele tuner‘s I have a ukulele now that it’s a soprano ukulele and I needed a different tuna because it wasn’t this to make you get new ukulele was not picking up on my concert tuner. Even though it is a ukulele obviously you have to change and get a different ukulele tuner because it’s a different type of ukulele.
This tuner won’t even like tell you you’re hitting the right now it just tells you what the note was supposed to sound like and then you just have to tune it by yourself even though you know to my ear is a good lesson to learn when you are learning how to play certain instruments but when you’re just beginning it’s probably not the best idea to do that you need to have an easy tuner like I have a different tutor for my concert ukulele but it doesn’t pick up for this ukulele and this is getting really frustrating not being able to find a ukulele tuner for soprano you feel at least like this specifically says in the description this is designed for a soprano ukuleles and it’s not working for me.

### 4/5 — This app is great for all your ukulele tuning needs!

*2020-11-21, version 2.6.0*

This app was s amazing. I got to get my ukulele tuned in no time! It was great to play it. The tuner has the cords to play, so you know which string to tune. The only downside is the apps everywhere... but hey, it’s a free app! I totally recommend using this. Thanks for reading this review!

### 2/5 — I Can't Tune!

*2020-10-11, version 2.6.0*

I found it very difficult to tune my ukulele because the app doesn't show if it is tuned or not, it only shows the sounds

### 1/5 — Ukulele tuner

*2020-09-08, version 2.6.0*
