Banjo Tuner - LikeTones

I almost gave it a bad rating. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to use the various tuning options in the BLUE title bar but once I had the “AHA!” moment I absolutely loved it. It is by far my FAVORITE tuning tool. It is accurate and it is very easy to use. I’m embarrassed that it took me so long to figure it out but I am in my late 70s so I can use that as an excuse. This is a great app!

This thing does what I want it to do out of the box with zero configuration. Also, I’m not pestered with ads. And the interface is pleasant - substantially better than the most popular freemium alternative, except this app is ACTUALLY free! Easy 5 stars. Admittedly, I wouldn’t have written this review had the app not nagged me. But if your goal is to solicit user feedback, I can’t think of a better way.

This app works exactly like it should. Kudos to the dev for not being a greed monger. It is free, ad free, and works as intended. I can’t believe the permissions asked for by other tuner apps and the fact that alternatives on the App Store actually have the nerve to charge a subscription…for a tuner app. They don’t need to host any server space. I hate how greedy devs have become and this app proves there’s still a few good ones out there who are willing to do good work without nickel and dining everyone to death. I’m all for a one time payment for something that doesn’t have ongoing fees but the current iOS model of app pricing is getting gross. Thanks dev!
