Pros and cons of PitchBot - Smart Chromatic Tuner app for iPhone and iPad
PitchBot - Smart Chromatic Tuner app good for
I installed PitchBot on both my iPhone 4 and iPad and the readings are identical. Great job PitchBot. Im a tuner freak and this has become one of my favorites. Handles tuning step down in a multitude of 1/4 steps and the amazing tone generator is icing on the cake. Best part? It looks awesome when running taking up the entire iPad or iPhone screen. Great job.
Does what its supposed to do very well. After replacing all strings of my telecaster I used it and it tuned my guitar perfectly within minutes. Exceptionally easy to use and accurate tuner. Absolutely worth the 2 bucks.
This is an excellent tuner. Works great with my ios4 updated 2 gen ipod touch with an external mic. As accurate as my korg tuner, even better! Honestly I wasnt expecting this level of accuracy from a 2 bucks app, worth every penny!
I discovered the developers from another app. My main instrument is a guitar, and I was really happy with the other app so I gave this a try. It turns out that its really well made. Its also just as accurate as they claim...its not just my testimony, but my friends also borrow my phone to tune up when were on the go. Really, really well made and well worth the price....so cheap that it makes me feel guilty using it.
This app was inexpensive, easy to understand, easy to use, and very accurate. I would reccomend this tuning device to any guitarist, professional or amateur.
This is the best tuner on the app store!!! It works perfectly!!!!! Great app!! Awesome!!!!
Some bad moments
I see it hasnt been updated since 2011. It doesnt work anymore on my iPhone 6S. I deleted it and reinstalled it but it is frozen. The red light lights up for a second then flips to the far right and the needle stays there. The A 440 tone will ring but it wont pickup any sounds to identify the pitch. Looks like the developer took the money and ran.
I have a 3Gs running the new OS. Pitchbot doesnt work on my phone. It is not picking up any sound. How can I get a refund? I do not see any support services.
This thing jumps all over the place. Sharp then flat then sharp... Never settles down. If you can tune by ear at all I doubt you will use this. Had acoustic within 6" of mic with no background noise, adjusted dampening and never saw it perform better. It may be worth $2 but Im really questioning that. It does not replace a tuner in my view. Really wish it did!
App does not work, anyone saying how good it is must not have tried to tune an instrument with it. The needle randomly jumps all over the place.
Im a musician, was attracted by the graphics and positive comments and got this tuner. The fine tune needle just jumps around all time with annoying update intervals. Cant really use it to tune, instead got another $4 app to do the job. Hope I can get refund on this one.
This app doesnt work whatsoever. The needle jumps around and Im pretty sure all the good reviews are from the people who wrote it. Dont buy u will be disappointed.
Btw does neone no how to go about getting a refund?? Thnx,
