Cleartune Overview
Cleartune can tune acoustic or electric guitar, bass, bowed strings, woodwinds, brass, piano, tympani and any other instrument that can sustain a tone.
Cleartune features a unique "note wheel" interface allowing you to quickly find your pitch, paired with a highly responsive fine-tuning meter for the perfect tune.
Cleartune is a chromatic instrument tuner and pitch pipe that allows you to quickly and accurately tune your instrument using the built-in mic in your device.

Thank you for the update!
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!! . I’ve been a professional musician since 1980 and this is BY FAR the best and most accurate guitar tuner I’ve ever used. I was devastated when IOS 11 came out and the tuner wasn’t working. Thanks for the quick update. The temperament function really makes it worth it, too. Ever since I read an article in an article in Disc Makers Blog, I’ve used it regularly. Below is a brief section from that article: James Taylor, in order to accommodate the vagaries of acoustic guitars, tunes his strings flatter than normal. Here is his guide: High E string -3 cents B string -6 cents G string -4 cents D string -8 cents A string -10 cents Low E string -12 cents This tuning method is also great for using a capo. Now, your mileage may vary. Your guitar is different than Taylor’s guitar. Your action may be higher. Maybe you play harder. Maybe you don’t use capos. Try it out and adjust your tuning as need be. Anyway, thanks again! This tuner is the best of any I’ve found in the App Store, and (if you’re a serious musician) is worth more than the price you are charging. Have a wonderful day! -DJG. nyc

Thank you for the update!!!!!
I never deleted this app before the update and I tapped on it by accident and it opened! I was so ecstatic, Ive never been more excited about an update for an app! No I can resume my practice just as I did before! Thank you so much for updating this wonderful app! One thing I did notice however... I like to play the drone through a Bluetooth speaker so I can hear it as I’m playing a passage, and now it won’t play through my speaker. My metronome does, so this is a little disappointing. But this is a minor thing compared to how great this app is! Thank you again!

Great with an iRig
This tuner works great with the phones built in mic on an acoustic guitar. It works ok on an unplugged electric if you hold it really close to the strings, but for electric it really shines when connected through an iRig(I'm sure other similar adapters work fine too). I've used this on iPhone 4, iPad 2, and iPhone 5. My main use is still on my old iPhone 4 which I keep around as a beater for just this type of use. I'm guessing this would have worked fine on my 3G while I still had it if I hadn't killed its usefulness by installing iOS 4 on it which slowed it to a crawl.
