高精度なクロマチックチューナーアプリです。 基準音 A4 を 400Hz 〜 480Hz で 1Hz 単位で設定できます。 C0 〜 B8 の広い音程でサイン波のテスト音を鳴らすことができます。 【注意】 耳を痛めないように、音量を上げないでテスト音を鳴らしてください。 特に B2 以下の低い音は聞こえなくても、物理的に音としては出ているので音量を上げて耳を痛めないように気をつけてください。 C6 以上の高い音も、同様です(高い音は気づくと思いますが)。

Tuner (チューナー)'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
