Advertising now doesn’t let to user the tuner. I’m going to remove it and look for another one. This tuner now forces to pay to be available to use it

Blows. The free version. Forget it. Way too many ads.
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
Unreasonable ads…. I want to preface by saying: I understand a free app might have some ads, but this is excessive. I downloaded this with the hope of using it as a chromatic tuner, since my clip on tuner doesn’t have that option. In the free version, during 1 tuning session, I had to watch through 2 ads (one when I opened the app, and another after I tuned maybe 2 strings). Then there’s the flashing ads right in the middle of the screen that are conveniently located right where you might accidentally tap them. My tune never sounded quite perfect, so I clipped on my regular tuner and realized that E was almost a half step flat, and D was sharp. So not only is it frustrating to use, but it can’t even be accurate?? I’m not sure how this app ended up with such great reviews, maybe the older versions were better. But the 2026 version is horrific, and I used it 1 time before deleting.

Great Tuner. The free version is not professional. Imagine you are doing a live gig and you need a tutor in a hurry. This tuner will block you with a full page ad and offer no escape unless you dump and reload the app. Furthermore, the paid version is a subscription model! How absurd is that?

no custom tuner. no custom tuning

ridiculous. never seen ads more ridiculous than this app This corporate greed is getting exhausting
- ★★★★★paywalled tunings and instruments
Charging to change instrument. Uhm? Why would changing what instrument be a hidden fee? Wack.
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
Can’t tune a single string…. Two ads popped up before I was done tuning a single string. App used to be usable. It’s a steaming pile now, don’t bother with it. I reinstalled it just to leave this…

RUINED IT. A perfectly good app is now useless
- ★★★★★pitch detection accuracy and reliability
made me mad. my lettuce tuner is better, this app can’t even pick up my A string only my D and low E string putting it right next to my amp and still can’t pick it up
- ★★★★★paywalled tunings and instruments
Bait and switch. They insist you pay more. It stops working until you do.
- ★★★★★pitch detection accuracy and reliability
BAD AFTER 3-4 YEARS. I’ve had this app for 3-4 years now on my iPhone, was real great, now showing D or D# on tuned 1-6 strings (Standard Guitar & Standard Tuning).
- ★★★★★crashes and technical glitches
App is unusable. App is unusable, DO NOT DOWNLOAD, you’re better off with every other tuner app
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
Adds hide the tuner. Can’t use it because the add for google wireless covers the tuner entirely. There is no way to close the window to use the tuner
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
Adds. I dropped my paid subscription due to the adds.

Hambreados. Les ruje la tripa, solo faltaba que el standar costara premiun
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
No longer worth it. This app was totally free. Now the app forces you to watch a 30 second ad to use. But sometimes after watching the ad, the tuner screen goes black. It’s not worth the exorbitant cost to buy when there are so many other free options available on the internet. Im uninstalling this app. Not worth it.
- ★★★★★crashes and technical glitches
Downgraded. I don’t know what’s up with this app now, too many glitches or bugs. Used to be good but is garbage now.
- ★★★★★paywalled tunings and instruments
Terrible. Don’t buy. If I could give it no stars I would.. Don’t buy this app. No 12 string alternatives. And no custom tuning abilities.
- ★★★★★data collection and suspicious privacy policy
Malware Warning!. App attempts to install malware every time its loaded. Avoid like the plague!
- ★★★★★paywalled tunings and instruments
Yet another great app consumed by developer greed. This app was the best, Ive been using it for years and just the large selection of tunings *mwah* What’s changed? Well they locked everything besides E Standard behind a paywall. With the amount of tuning apps doing this nowadays you’re better off buying an actual tuner.
- ★★★★★crashes and technical glitches
Loved this app until…. Thus was my favorite tuner until iOS 18 update. Now the app opens and closes right back out. Have uninstalled and reinstalled. Looking for another good tuner.
- ★★★★★paywalled tunings and instruments
Not happy. It was great until they wanted to charge me I don’t even use it anymore but I was at my friends without my tuner and used this app and it locked up …
- ★★★★★pitch detection accuracy and reliability
Needs work. I bought this tuner with the hope of it being a good tuner. It is useless on a 5 string banjo. It cannot tune the B string. It cannot even hear the B string. The other 4 strings are sketchy. Banjo pickers save your money b

Premium price change. I used to pay .99 a month for this app and this month it’s forcing me to pay 9.99. Also won’t restore my account purchase even though I just paid for it. I’ve been with this app for 6 years for it to act like I’ve never had an account.
- ★★★★★crashes and technical glitches
Got rid of the ads with $$ but now it crashes. I like the accuracy but I’m tired of killing the process so it stops freezing up. 😵💫

Mr Gautsch. Ok, so the standard guitar tuner works well. But trying to upgrade to the next level is impossible. A million ads and inescapable exasperation to attempt to PAY THEM MONEY has sent me back to the app store.
- ★★★★★pitch detection accuracy and reliability
Inaudible even after tweaking iPhonne. Impossible to use… sound so low you cannot distinguish tune. I even tried connecting it to a Bluetooth external speaker with no luck at all - uninstalling.
- ★★★★★pitch detection accuracy and reliability
Didn’t work at all for me. Seems to just read sounds at random, or else it’s reading through the mic instead of my interface. Either way it’s useless to me.
- ★★★★★ads blocking and interrupting the tuner
Had to delete it. This app worked great for a year. Now it takes to another web site to watch adds before I can use it. I had to finally delete. I think the price to buy it is steep.
