This is too simple

This tuner is too simple, I am just learning the violin and I used it right before a lesson and my teacher immediately had to tune my violin when I started playing. It doesn’t tune it, it just plays a sound. It doesn’t record the sound your violin makes so it cannot tell you if it is sharp or flat, i could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure a tuner is suppose to tell you what note the string sound it leaning towards. There is a chance I am using the app wrong, but I didn’t see any other clear buttons to indicate another section of the app.

No frills,just perfect

Simple app, love it and use it every time I pick up to practice. Thanks

It sucks do not download it

It sucks

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.
