Tuner - Pitched!

More About Tuner - Pitched!
Features include:
- Choose from a range of instrument tunings ( guitar tuner, violin tuner, ukulele tuner and many more ) or upgrade to pro to create your own.
- Vary the reference tuning pitch away from the common 440Hz.
- Transposition for non-concert pitch instruments, for example the B-flat trumpet.
- Choice of light or dark themes.
- Adjust the volume sensitivity of the app for quieter instruments and noisy environments.
- Use the pitch pipe to sound a reference note and tune by ear.
Hands free tuning means you can tune all of your strings without ever having to touch the screen - you don't want to have to reach for your ukulele tuner in between tuning each string, and now you don't have to.
This tuner app has two modes:
- Instrument tuner
- Chromatic tuner
The instrument tuner shows you the target notes for the instrument and tuning that you have selected. For example a guitar tuner would show the notes EADGBE if you chose standard guitar tuning, or DADGBE if you chose drop D tuning. Or a violin tuner would show GDAE. You can then just play each string and the tuner will identify whether you are in tune. Pitched Tuner has built in tunings for many common instruments including banjo, bass 4, 5 and 6 string, cello, double bass, guitar including 7 string, ukulele, viola and violin. You can also easily create your own in the app.
The chromatic tuner displays the note that is closest to what is currently being played. This is useful for instruments with lots of notes ( piano tuning for example ) or with several common tunings such as the guitar.
Pitched Tuner displays a traditional tuner needle and dial. It clearly shows the frequency being played as well as the nearest note and error in cents. The dial then allows you to easily track small changes in pitch.
This instrument tuning app also works as a pitch pipe and can sound a reference note to tune your instrument by ear, or use as a target note when you are re-stringing your guitar or violin.
We hope you find Pitched Tuner useful. You can always contact us at support@stonekick.com.
If you need a guitar tuner, ukulele tuner, violin tuner, or kalimba tuner then try Pitched now!

Wow! Install and play! (Yes, I've got my A tuning fork with me, but just sometimes I need check-help with the lower strings, and this week I have no access to a piano, which is why I downloaded.) So: the CGDA is intuitive, and like carrying four tuning forks, which was all I wanted. But in addition to that the visual displays - "compass-needle" and digital - are excellent: I can foresee myself doing vocal exercises on them. Progress through technology, as they say. Thank you!!

Great tuning app. It has a great selection of instruments and after choosing one you also select a specific note to lock the tuning for that one making it easier to notice of you too low or high. Also if you tap on the note it with play it which helps in developing the ear to tune by ear instead.

An app that can even measure the frequency of your voice precisely. I'm impressed. New features may be implemented. Simplistic approach is ok, but casts a shadow on the precision of the app. You can use it to tune your instruments reliably. As I've said it even shows the frequency of your voice precisely. Well done!

Pretty accurate tuner, in spite of terrible phone microphone. What is most valuable to me is the option to hear notes. In my opinion the mic button icons in the tuner interface should be inverted (clear icon for "listening" state, slashed icon for "mic off" state) or the button should be turned into a checkbox

Nice work!! Thank you for not popping ads in to the screen like others do. I was looking for a 432hz tuner and this app allowed me to set that as a reference! Piano sounds great now! This app is worth keeping. We should support their efforts by purchasing!

Superb for proper players. Was using another, but would only tune for standard guitar tuning. Changed, and that was so innacurate made Led Zepplin's rain song sound like a bad jazz cover. Finally this app did what I needed. It's simple: hears the note (and if sharp etc) shows frequency (Hz) and has useful needle allowing you very accurate tuning. This is the app you need if you are a musician.

I think this app is great. However, I would like if it was more accurate and could clearly distinguish sung notes. I personally use it as a singer, so that would be very helpful. But overall, it's a great tool and quite useful.

I have been using it for microtonal music and it's been working great, the best tuner I've used so far. There are a few issues with the purchase though: On my older phone (Android 8), the ads were still showing after a purchase. On my newer phone (Android 11), the app crashes when the ads show. EDIT: My purchase keeps getting refunded every 3 days and need to rebuy.

Great tuners are hard—they must be not only accurate, but practical for people to use. This one pulls off (pun a little intended) everything beautifully. (The name, tho—"Pitched Tuner"? Isn't that obvious? 😁 ) • [EDIT:] If there's any improvement I could suggest, how about an option to control the update speed? Averaging out the display (needle, graph) to a bit slower, smoother response may not be as frantically accurate, but might be easier for those of us with aging reflexes. Cheers!

couldn't give this app a higher rating because it does all that you need. and it gives you a variety of ways to do it depending on who you are. I was always by ear myself and when I have this sounding the notes to me, I remember that I always wished I had something like this back in the day when I tune along with my cassette tapes. Megadeth Metallica was always good for an open E at the beginning of a song that rings out for a while but I still had to stop and push rewind and start it over.

First off, i live in New England and the humidity levels are in constant flux. This can cause a plethora of tunning issues. However, I use this app to tune a set of 5 Toca custom delux Tumbadoras(congas)to specific pitches/intervals. The tunner does a great job of not picking up on the many unpredictable overtones that a natural skin head and oak drum produce. This was not the case with other pay to use tunning apps. Easy to use, effevtive, and all for no initial charge....A++ !!!

Perfect for the Lyre! I was struggling with a different more popular tuner app and was so frustrated and decided to try this one instead and its WORLDS better! I love that it shows the fluctuations as you go between cords as you tune, its way easier to understand visually and helped me also learn where the sounds for each chords fall next to each other.

It is hard to find a good tuner app with a drone feature. Pitched Tuner has an easy interface with a few different drone options including sine wave, clarinet, keyboard, and guitar tones. The drone feature also has a range of 4 octaves. My only complaint is the drone rearticulates at regular intervals, which occasionally disturbes or distracts me from my practice excersices.

I enjoy this app, but there's one issue that needs attention. The pitch graph section doesn't smoothly transition between connected notes as I play my instrument or sing. It jumps abruptly to the next note it mainly detects I'm playing. Improving the graph's ability to detect and register these changes more seamlessly would greatly improve the benefits, and would be appreciated. I would suggest a graph that has the letter notes already preposition on the graph with the line changing between them

I like the Pitched Tuner app because it gives two tuning methods, using the meter, or sounding the actual note. I prefer to tune by using the actual sound, using the meter to verify if necessary. The reason why is because any background noise at all can cause the meter to give a false reading, making tuning by ear preferable. Pitched Tuner gives both options. My only concern for the app is that there's the offer to buy the ad-free pro version, but no mention of price. I don't like to press the purchase link without knowing the price beforehand. I finally relented and clicked the link to purchase the Pro version that has no ads. The price of the app is $3.99 USD. In my opinion the pro version should be available separately on Google Play Store and the price displayed. I tend to not trust companies and individual developers who cannot display the price and be open, up-front, and honest about their products. If the price is reasonable, I see no reason to hide it. In this case there is nothing to hide. It's a good app that is straight-forward, easy to use, and worth the price of the Pro version. I see no reason for the cloak-and-dagger where the price is concerned. Of course, the price displayed depends on the nation where the customer lives and the currency used. On the other hand, other apps on Google Play Store show their price, and I'm sure that Google Play Store adjusts the price listed depending on the location and payment method given by the customer. Even using the free version, the ads are not intrusive and do not interrupt or interfere with the use of the app. I definitely recommend Pitched Tuner as an instrument tuning app. Having two methods of tuning in the same app is definitely a plus in my book. Not being restricted to guitar tuning is another plus.

This is a great app. It's super accurate and I have never experienced a single glitch or bug. I use it to tune both acoustic and electric guitars and also mandolins. It can also be used unconventionally to detect notes in skngs or lead lines and solos to reverse engineer into chords. I've used numerous tuning apps, but over the years I've stuck with this one. 5 stars all around!

I've used a few different tuners and here's my perspective after using this one for several weeks. Does it work? Yes. Is it user friendly? Well, not really. The biggest issue I have with this tuner is that it is so good at capturing sound, it picks up on every little sound outside of what instrument you're trying to tune that the needle jumps all over the place. It works, but it's too much of a hassle to use, especially if you're trying to tune in louder or even just slightly loud environments.

This is a great tuner and drone app! But because the sound through the phone was too quiet to be heard, I hooked my phone up to a speaker so I can practice scales as loud as I please up against the drone. If you don't have a speaker handy or you don't feel like connecting your speaker to your phone every time you practice, I'd suggest not installing this app if the drone is a big reason you want to get it. But otherwise, from my experience, it works wonderfully and I highly recommend it.

A good app for what it does, but could be a real standout with one simple tweak. What this app does: One view allows you to play a selected note. The other view is a frequency needle, useful for tuning instruments or checking my singing pitch for a particular note. But the needle display could easily be much better. As it is, the needle's display range is narrow, so it jumps around too much to follow a whole song. It would be better as an octave wheel capable of following notes of a whole song.

I love that there is a feature that can play the pitches out loud, so that you can hear what a certain note sounds like. It's kind of a hidden feature because you have to tap the little music note icon on the top right, but I'm glad I know it exists because I've been looking for an app that plays out sounds of pitches you can select. The chromatic tuner is decent as well and seems to pick up notes accurately as long as there isn't too much background noise.
