Introduced ads and trackers for no reason. I've had this app for years and they've never changed anything, now this. I would have tolerated ads since I've gotten so much use from it, but there's no way to deny trackers. It just keeps repeating the request with the option to accept or deny. This is a friggin frequency analyzer, you don't deserve my personal info.

Bryan, please update the app, and read the text shown before/after Google's Consent Dialog: 1. I do NOT collect PI (Google does), 2. you can disable personalization (follow the instructions in said text; Google makes this intentionally difficult). 3. you can disable ads altogether for the price of a beer. Or, just rate 1* as a thank you note. ;)

i've been using this tuner for as long as i can remember and have never had a single issue, never been bombarded with ads to the point it's unusable, and most importantly, never been gaslit into leaving a review like some other apps do every single time you open them. gstrings has always been there when i needed a reliable tuner. finally today it asked after all these years, even acknowledging i've been using it for a while. 10000 out of 10, have definitely already recommended to others.

Only tuning app I use, one of the first installs on every new phone. Straightforward functioning chromatic tuner, completely free. I most enjoy the fact that you can tune to whatever key you want without forking up extra money, doesn't have to be standard or one of the preset tunings. Besides that, it's pretty accurate as far as I can tell, I've never noticed any tuning problems that I could attribute to the app (ie dead strings, intonation etc).
