Best Tuning App Ever
MaddProfessor
“I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.”
King of the moles chords by 
James Yorkston
N/A•
Verse 1
D
Bm
Building a dam on the beach with my
D
G
youngest using the broken backs
of black tar and yellow sandstone cracks
D
And porcelain kitchen debris
And bricks branded
G
And struther whims and logs sighed
A
And he tells me,
Bm
Father, when I'm older I shall
G
D
be the king of the malls
And I'll build you a house
A
right here on these rocks
Bm
And we can sit and throw
G
stones at the gods
D
And watch the tide pull them away
We find a bottle and inside there
are talks of one in a million
G
From one mile of the coast
D
There's a number I could call
But I am too shallow
G
For the tears and confusion
That surely would follow
And it's
Bm
Father dear,
G
why are you leaving me here alone?
D
A
This is love, and it's all that I have
Bm
I have lived through this with you
G
And we shall all see it through
D
G
D
For it's love, and it's all I understand
And high up above there's that
one daft kestrel
G
We always see him, we joke,
he's been hunting
crabs
D
Shunting his talons on the rocks
And cursing as our jaws slacken
G
and follow his stuttered flight
A
And he rises above,
Gm
D
watching and hungry still
And it's,
Bm
Father dear,
G
why are you leaving me here alone?
D
A
This is love and it's all that I have
Bm
I have lived through this with you
G
And we shall all see it through
D
G
For it's love and it's all I under
D
stand

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
