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.”

Laws by committee
Bb
D
Wars by committee
G
D
Governs by committee
E
A
It's the most effective way
E
Years ago, some time ago
F#m
Bm
A
A man I hardly knew
E
Talked too much and pointlessly,
F#m
Bm
A
so I sliced that man in two
E
F#m
He may have felt the blow I struck,
Bm
A
but it doesn't show today
E
F#m
I brought him back to life again,
Bm
E
D
E
and I had a debt to pay
G
Bb
D
Be sure by committee,
G
D
justice by committee,
E
A
it's the most objective way.
E
F#m
It had to come, I knew it would,
Bm
A
not cruel and then not kind.
E
Just asking what I'd done and why
F#m
Bm
A
Just opening my mind
E
And when it comes, what can you do
F#m
Bm
A
But offer to explain
E
How people bleed their lives away
F#m
Bm
E
An d truth is down the drain
A
E
That sounds very glib, they said.
A
G
You above it all,
A
G
deciding for another man.
A
G
Who gave you the call?
D
You say they're fair.
Ebdim
Ab
I say it too.
Ebdim
E
But they kill the bird of paradise.
A
Yes, they do.
Yes, they do.
D
E
G
Laws by committee,
Bb
D
wars by committee,
G
D
governed by committee,
E
A
it's the most effective way.
It could just be
E
F#m
that you'll ask me
Bm
A
to drive away with you.
E
Together leave it all behind
F#m
Bm
A
and try for something new.
E
F#m
I'd do it, yes, I think I would,
Bm
A
it's one thing we could do.
E
F#m
But will you cut my head clean off,
Bm
E
D
or will I do it to you?
E
G
I don't know, but I know it's all in me
Bb
The sky, the road,
D
your blond hair is in me
G
D
E
The thought that can explode, or fade,
into convening another

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
