Guitar Tuner - Simply Tune
doubtful ratingFor beginners it wins with being free and tuning close enough to get started. But it genuinely sags on detection: it hears the mic poorly, especially on low strings, confuses strings, and sometimes just stops showing the meter until you restart. Accuracy is so-so, and experienced players say a proper hardware tuner is better.

About the rating
There is a worrying contrast: several gushing fives with no detail ("Tried 100s of tuners", "I lured gator in 1 week") sit next to detailed complaints that the tuner hears low strings poorly and confuses them. One review flatly says "this app sucks how does it have good reviews", which deepens doubts against storeAvg 4.79 and textAvg 4.09.
