Has nice features, but messed up on something very important: it got left/right as sharp and flat backwards. Sharp should be to the right, not to the left. Absolutely counterintuitive. Messed me up during a studio season. While i really like everything else about it, i have to use a different app; i can't risk making the same mistake. (There doesn't seem to be a setting to reverse this.)

Former 5 Star review: Easy to use. Great for alternate tunings. Update: Sadly, the new version of the free app is terrible. Visually, it has no style and is completely generic. Practically, it is harder to read than the old one. There is no simple way to exit the app, an annoying app trend. Obviously, they want you to pay now for what was free last year by just downgrading the free product to something no one would want.

As a registered piano technician I can decide the best stretch by ear. This app shows me very accurately whether a wire has changed from the pitch I intended. (The app validates my ear and my ear validates the app--we agree.) The app is much faster at showing whether a pitch has slipped. Age has dulled my ear in the top half octave, but the app can hear all the way to the top on every piano. On the lowest few notes on all but the best pianos the app does not do well and I use aural tests--probably because fundamental frequencies are absent.
