Caution: ads inappropriate for children

Recently my app started displaying nearly pornographic ads, I would caution anyone using this for students especially.

Does very little at all

I could not find how to actually activate the tuner (if there even is one). I won’t deny it’s useful being able to grab a sample of the open strings, but there are so many other ways to do that. Considering the near-instant download, it doesn’t surprise me that app is so small there is next to no actual functionality.

Not working

Just opens the Home Screen with the picture of a violin and Stays there. No actions or no activity buttons. Totally useless.

Watch out for this app

I downloaded and used this app once, about a month ago. Today, I checked my battery usage around noon and this app had been running in the background all day and had used up 20% of my battery. I haven’t opened it once since closing it a month ago. Delete this app immediately! Also the tones are pitchy and hard to use for tuning.
