It's literally so perfect. I play cello, and I always lose my tuner, so I use this one, and it works perfectly. I love how it's available to so many more instruments, including the whole set of orchestra instruments like violin, viola, cello, and double bass! I do have one request, though. Whenever you play finger notes, such as 4th finger "G," it doesn't detect it like an in person tuner, so I wouldn't know if my finger notes are in tune. That's my only issue. It's a brilliant tuner!

Hello cinnamon _stix! Thank you for using our cello tuner. Please select "chromatic" mode in the settings, and the tuner will detect any notes.

easy to see. chromatic mode shows notes which is useful for me. there's quite a bit of jumping around with the needle when it's a fingered note but I don't know if that's the app or me cause I'm a beginner so maybe I'm not holding the string down well.

It's perfect—it does exactly what it's supposed to do! There's a subtlety with tuners: some are designed to look for pure tones, but the sound from a cello has a lot of overtones. I *think* this app is handling overtones correctly, both from the fact that separate apps are offered for violin and cello, and because the needle doesn't jump all over the place when playing the C string, which has the most complex spectral structure.
