## Review summary

The app is praised for its simple, quick reference interface and usefulness as a practice aid, but repeatedly criticized for not listening to the cello, lacking pitch feedback, sometimes failing to work, producing incorrect tones, and cluttered by ads.

### Pros

- Simple four-button interface for quick, easy use.
- Fast/usable for basic tuning in practice sessions.
- Useful as a reference tool to adjust pegs by ear.
- More convenient than a tuning fork for quick checks.

### Cons

- No instrument listening or pitch feedback; it just plays fixed notes.
- Often non-functional or unresponsive (taps do nothing).
- Sound output does not resemble cello tones and is not a real tuner.
- Contains ads and can be intrusive.
