Airyware Tuner - strobe & more

My initial review was rather unfair in that the iOS prompting to write a review was not caused by the software developer, hence my edit. This tuner is very easy to use and is very easy to see in either a bright setting with lots of lights or a dark stage setting. It appears to be very accurate and comes with numerous useful settings like key, which gives an audible response to which ever one you select. This tuner is not just for guitar as there are a plethora of settings you can choose from starting with a 10 hole harmonica to a zouk and just about anything you can imagine in between. One of the nice features that keeps this from being overwhelming is that you can simply choose your favorites and have only those as your default choices. You can go back to the main pool and choose others if you need to later. I use one for guitar and one for bass. You can also select whatever temperament you’d like and even edit them to taste. I have been using tuners for about 50 years and in all of that time the Airyware Tuner has been my constant favorite. It is on my iPhone and iPad and has kept my instruments in tune for a long time. I highly recommend this app!

I love the tuner. The issue I have with it is if you go into any of the settings, you can never get back to the tuner. You have to hit the screen all over swipe here seipe there. I have no idea how to do it and then somehow it goes back to the tuner. I’d like to get into some of the settings, but I can’t because I can’t get back to the tuner so I don’t even try. But I love the tuner part of it.

Not only is this an amazingly accurate tuner (I use the strobe setting) I was pleasantly surprised to find that it includes tons of “sweetening” intonation settings. I’m an acoustic guitarist and tried the James Taylor sweetening setting and my guitar sounds truly heavenly! I also tune my instruments to 432Hz and what a treat that I can have such accuracy, sweetening intonation as well as having the beautiful tuner interface that I love much more than the staple strobe tuner that I won’t even mention here because I honestly love this app more. I am so blessed that they provide so must for free that I’m going to purchase my license right away and you should too! These guys put their hearts and souls into creating this masterpiece and we must compensate their nothing-less-than-genius work.
