SongScribe Tuner

Version 2.0 is here. Rebuilt in native Swift for iOS 26. Liquid Glass UI, 16 themes, custom wallpaper. Free with small and respectful ads. $1.99 removes it forever.

A tuner should feel like a precision instrument.

SongScribe Tuner is built for musicians who want one thing: accurate tuning with zero friction. All the features, none of the upsells.

Pluck a string. The needle responds.

No frantic twitching. No chasing note names that won't hold still. We bypass native audio plugins for the raw signal. We filter bands and suppress noise. We compensate for harmonic overtones. We have more secrets in the sauce than can be said.

The result? A needle that moves and it locks, steady and smooth. As it should be.

And laid on top is a simple and beautiful interface, built for purpose.

BUILT FOR iOS 26.

Rewritten from scratch in Swift 6 and SwiftUI. Liquid Glass panels, concentric corner radii, native haptics, and full light/dark support on every theme.

BUILT FOR YOUR INSTRUMENT.

Five instrument presets (chromatic, guitar, bass, vocal, and violin) each tuned to its own frequency range. Chromatic handles everything else.

16 HANDCRAFTED THEMES.

From warm parchment (SongScribe) and late-night studio tones (Midnight Jazz) to retro phosphor glow (Classic DOS) and high-contrast for low-vision musicians. Each theme has full light and dark variants. Plus the default iOS system theme that follows your device appearance.

YOUR PHOTO. YOUR TUNER.

Use any photo from your library as the tuner wallpaper. Adjustable blur, tint opacity, and vignette controls let you tune the look without hiding the needle. Set a picture of your band, your studio, or your dog and the tuner still reads cleanly on top.

TUNE TO ANYTHING.

Adjustable reference pitch from 430 to 450 Hz, in 1 Hz steps. Ensemble musicians, baroque players, and anyone tuning against a sampled instrument get exactly what they need. Default is A = 440 Hz.

YOUR GLASS. YOUR WAY.

Pick how the tuner card reads on your background: transparent, tinted, frosted, or full Liquid Glass refraction. Built on Apple's iOS 26 APIs.

SIMPLE PRICING.

Free with a small banner ad and respectful interstitials. One-time $1.99 purchase removes ads forever. That's it. No subscriptions.

Existing purchasers: your Remove Ads entitlement carries over automatically from v1. StoreKit 2 restores it on first launch — no action needed.

PRIVACY.

No account. No sign-up. No third-party analytics or crash reporting SDKs. Crash and hang reports use Apple's built-in MetricKit. The mic is only active while the tuner is on screen. Nothing leaves your device.
