One of the most accurate tuning apps I've found!
by Matthew Harrison, 2024-11-20

Been using this app for years, very rarely the needle would freeze, but that could be my old phone playing up; otherwise, the app works really well, it has great features and it's very easy to use.

Great app. Used it for years. Easy to read, allows different temperaments, standard note frequencies/orchestra tunimng, has built-in support for many instruments, as well. Everything you'd want from a guitar tuner, without being specifics to the guitar
