I had a little trouble figuring out where the buttons were for the cords but I figured it out but I still wish that the notes would play a few seconds longer because I don’t want to keep pressing it over and over again. But overall it was great and as a first time violin tuner it helped me a lot.
Doesn’t do anything- Just shows a photo of a violin
It is possible that this app didn’t work on my iPhone or hasn’t been updated recently enough to support modern iOS versions, but needless to say, the app didn’t work at all for me. I opened the app, started bowing my violin in an attempt to tune it for the first time in years and nothing happened. The app never showed any sign of changing from the photo of a violin with the strings listed by their keys below, other than the ad at the bottom changing every few seconds. Granted, I haven’t played violin in years and I know practically nothing about the mechanics of my violin even, but when I played, the app didn’t register anything. Furthermore, there were no buttons other than an info butter on the top right corner. When I look for a violin tuning app, I want an app that will simply measure the pitch of my strings and tell me if it is tune (or if not, if it’s too low or too high). This app was not helpful at all.
I got this for my son who played violin for 1 school year. Since we knew close to nothing about the violin or even how to tune it this app helped tremendously. We found out that the violin needs to be tuned before playing every time. The was simple and made tuning easy. Just touch the cord on the app and match the sound in the violin. Overall a great app.
While it get’s the job done, I don’t understand why the buttons to activate the notes are so small. Especially since you may need to press each note numerous times if you’re still getting the hang of tuning your violin. The picture is pretty, but there is so much wasted space that could be used for larger buttons. Learning an instrument can be frustrating enough; pressing buttons shouldn’t be. :)
Came in very handy for tuning away from house or other instruments. My 12 year old niece uses it easily. And the volume is great. My musicians kit app pitches were not loud enough in the low tones. Plus being for violin only makes it quick and easy. Love it.
If I were an intermediate player this would be fine, but as a beginner it's difficult for me to use because the notes only play for a short moment and I have to keep reaching over to hit it again and I can't tune it that fast. I had to delete and find another app that will play the notes for longer than a fraction of a second.
I downloaded and used this app once, about a month ago. Today, I checked my battery usage around noon and this app had been running in the background all day and had used up 20% of my battery. I haven’t opened it once since closing it a month ago. Delete this app immediately! Also the tones are pitchy and hard to use for tuning.
I could not find how to actually activate the tuner (if there even is one). I won’t deny it’s useful being able to grab a sample of the open strings, but there are so many other ways to do that. Considering the near-instant download, it doesn’t surprise me that app is so small there is next to no actual functionality.
I think the sounds of all the buttons need to be at least 10 seconds longer because I had to keep tapping the small buttons which was very uncomfortable for me and it took a lot longer then it needs to tune. Please try and make the sound lo her for each string.
This app does nothing more than play the 4 notes when you click on them. It does not help with my tuning at all. This app also takes information from other apps on my iPad. Overall, I don’t think that anyone should waste their time with this app.
It's not like super bad but it needs a lot of improvement. The sound is too short (if you know what I mean) and it's like a whole orchestra playing one note, and that confuses me. You should really make the sound longer and have ONE violin playing the note. (I wish I could put 0 stars but it just doesn't let me.)
I taped on the buttons and it played the sound but in a cord I am still new at violin I know what a cord is but I don’t play them much I uninstalled it but I still need to find a better way to tune my violin.
Its pretty good, but if I could add something to it, i would add sertain notes, like B, or F or C. then you could 1) tune those specific notes and 2) see if youre playing them right. But at least I can tune my violin 🎻
It is just a violin tuner app, and these angry reviews are annoying me. Most of them consist of petty complaints that this app doesn’t TEACH YOU THE FREAKIN ART OF VIOLIN!! IT IS JUST A TUNER PEOPLE!!! ITS NOT SOME KIND OF SYNTHESIS MATERIALIZER THAT AUTOMATICALLY MAKES YOU AWESOME AT VIOLIN, COME ON!!!!!!
I’m in sixth grade and when practicing I need to tune my violin. I got this app thinking that it would help me tune so I could play with the right sound but it didn’t want to leave the violin page. The app decided to stay on that page doing nothing, just taking up storage and being trash. So I slated the ungrateful app by deleting it and putting it to it’s grave... ICloud! So I hope you app makers can make your “ money makers” useful in the world and work! Now fix the stupid app!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! 😊
This app sucked it was less than a one star but that's the lowest you could give it was terrible and needs major improvement I can't stand to see a waste of my time and yours i can even express how angry I am ugh
If I could I would give it 0 stars. I press the note I want but it doesn't work I start spamming every button till 1min later for a sec it works then stops again. I try calming myself and doing it slowly but STILL DOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!!!!'
All this app does is play a sound effect, and it doesn’t help tune. It would be much better if it told you how out of time the violin was, or if the sound effect didn’t involve vibrato.
The first thing I learned when I got my violin is how to tune it. How am I supposed to know if my string is flat or sharp? I would like it to show me that.
This isn’t a good tuner. 1) I keep hitting the ads located practically on top of the thin buttons. 2) Sound is too short. Wish they would also offer in pizzicato. 3) There are better apps out there, or if your around a piano, learn the G,D,A,E keys and use that. 4) Sound quality isn’t amazing.
