HotPaw Talking Tuner is a hands-off, sound-activated, talking, chromatic, musical instrument tuner. It talks to tell you if your instrument is in tune or not; so you don't even have to look at it or touch the display. Talking Tuner uses speech synthesis, and works with or without VoiceOver being enabled. This app was created because I received a request to develop an iPhone app which could help a vision-challenged individual tune their musical instrument. This app is the result. With the Auto-Speak switch turned on, Talking Tuner will listen for a note to be played, and then, after waiting for the end of the sound (so as not to talk over it), will speak the note name, and how many cents sharp or flat the end of the note is estimated to be. Using headphones may help make it easier to hear what this app is saying while tuning. Make sure to turn the volume up high enough to hear it. The pitch estimation algorithm works best for notes between 2 octaves below Middle-C to 2 octaves above Middle-C. It may not work as well for very low notes, very high notes, or with any background noise, harmony, or accompaniment present. The default tuning resolution is about +- 3 cents (3/100ths of the pitch difference between semitones). Optional higher resolution tuning settings may result in a slower tuning response.}

Hello! First of all, I would like to thank you for the accessibility features of the app. The compatibility with *VoiceOver* is impressive. You've made a great app for those who need a highly sensitive and perfect tuning experience. Since I have limited theoretical knowledge, I struggled a bit with the *pitch range* settings. I would be very pleased if you could add *Turkish language support* to your app.

I’m a blind guitarist who’s been playing for 31 years and this app works perfect. Highly recommend it. Please keep updating the app to work on the latest version of iOS. Thank you so much Ronald!

I’m learning mandolin, and it’s nice to be able to have a tuner that I can use without being able to see. First time I started the application on my iPhone/iPad, it did not work, but force quitting and restarting changed it. Voice is clear and understandable because it works with voiceover on. For some reason it kept saying that my g was six cents too short, and then when I have done nothing with it but came back later on it said it was in tune. Any suggestions on how close the instrument should be to the phone? Nice update would be an option to have instant speech feedback instead of waiting for the end of the note, which would be useful when wearing headphones and would not create interference.

This app is a great idea but the talking feedback is waaay too fast to understand making this app unusable. Too bad. My guitar-playing husband is blind and really needed it to work.

Talking tuner works once then you have to down load it all over again for it to work this is not for the blind to use

I had struggled for years to find an electronic tuner that I could use with very limited eyesight. I have used the Talking Tuner app for about six years now at gigs, at rehearsals and for practising at home, Mainly to tune my tenor and soprano saxophones. It is very accurate, has input sensitivity control and is easy to use. It is worth noting that the tuning reference is taken from the ending of the note, so important not to hold a good steady note, only to drift off at the end because that will be the note spoken. I’ve tended to
