Customer Reviews
Tuner in your pocket.
Worth the cost just to have an incredibly accurate tuner built-in to your phone. My last portable tuner cost $35 and the mic wasn't the level of quality the iPhone provides.
Use it every day
Great tuner, very useful chord functions for multiple instruments and good metronome (wish it could be louder). Fantastic app.
....
I love the chord database. It's been helpful so far and I've only had the app for three weeks. Everything else is just fluff and filler. I wish the drum machine had more preset styles and variations of styles.
