This is a tuner app that visualizes pitch and intonation over time. ◯ Basic Features The app displays the pitch and intonation of incoming sound as a trace on the screen. Try singing toward your iPhone—you'll instantly see how accurate your pitch is, including slides and scoops. You can also tap the piano keyboard to play precise reference tones. Perfect for vocal training. Of course, it's not just for singing—you can also use it to tune or practice musical instruments. It supports a wide pitch range from C0 to B7, making it ideal for practicing with whistling or voice-based instruments too. ◯ Audio Playback Features Analyze and display the pitch of imported audio tracks. By comparing the pitch of the original audio with your own in real time, you can train yourself to match the reference more accurately. You can also change the key of the song during playback. With the vocal separation feature powered by AI, you can split the vocals and accompaniment of the imported audio. Play back "vocals only" or "accompaniment only" while displaying the pitch of the vocals—perfect for practicing along. ◯ Sheet Music Import MIDI, MusicXML, or MuseScore files to view the score while it plays. Sing along with the reference pitch, and practice with the metronome or by changing the key. ◯ VocalTuner Pro (In-App Purchase) Even on the free plan, you can save and practice with songs, scores, and recordings (up to 2 songs, 2 scores, and 3 recordings). Upgrade to VocalTuner Pro to save unlimited songs, scores, and recordings, and remove ads. It's a one-time purchase, not a subscription. ※ For feature requests or feedback, please use the review section or the in-app feedback feature.
