OnPitch - Vocal Pitch Monitor 4+

Amazing! So simple and functional

I never leave reviews but I just had to with this one because I love how this app does one thing and does it so high quality. It’s rare these days to find an app that doesn’t bog you down with so many different functions/optionality, but I love that this app is so simple, it minimizes distractions in that way which is really helpful to making music. I love that it’s not trying to be a million things. And it’s so sensitive and exact. It’s helpful that it shows a continual line so you can raise and lower your pitch in real time to correct the note. I am obsessed now with figuring out the pitch of things and getting better at pitch myself. It’s more accurate than my uke tuner! Some people are saying that this app is discouraging because it shows that even some of the best singers sing off key, but I would just take that as evidence that it’s ok if you sing a tiny bit sharp or flat— it’s just a matter of how exact you want to be. You can be ok with the pink and blue lines if you’re ok with singing a microscopic amount off key!

Cool app!

I’m a self trained vocalist, and i have a hard time figuring out what notes my melodies are made of, so I wanted an app that could tell me what I’m singing. This does that, although it is a little clunky. The screen moves a little too fast on mobile and you can’t zoom out. What would be really helpful is if it could transcribe all the notes you sang in order, maybe with a filter so any note shorter than 1/2 note or whatever you set doesnt get added to the list, so the passing notes and feedback dont get added. So you sing your melody and it gives you “D4 A5 C#3 F#” etc etc, whatever notes you sang minus the super short passing/feedback notes, maybe listed on a bar on the side or a drop down from the top or something. i know this might not be the purpose of the app, but a majority of vocalists online are self taught like me, and I think you could turn this into a more powerful and popular tool by adding a feature like this.

Hi there, thank you for your review and your suggestion! I've added it to my list of feature requests, and will keep it in mind when working on future versions of OnPitch.

Worth it

People complaining that the “mic is sensitive” um no duh? Use headphones then! And “Doesn’t work with vibrato”?? If you can’t figure out that the pitch is changing on your own with vibrato that’s on you. It’s not like the app gives u a bad score for not hitting the notes. Why is it bad that it detects vibrato?? It will still say your starting note! Anyway this app is very -useful to me and I use it every week. Sometimes I’ll hear a funny sound my dog makes and check the pitch of it or I use it when singing all the time. Definitely worth it to me and doesn’t try to make you pay more once you buy it or sign up to pay every month or anything. There’s no ads, never crashes, works well to me.
