Tuning Fork for Watch

Tone pitch & reference tuner

  • Apple Watch
  • $0.99
  • Music
  • No iPhone needed

Tuning by ear needs one thing: a reference pitch you trust. A physical tuning fork is the one piece of kit that never makes it into the bag.

Features

What it does

  • Steady reference tone on demand, straight from the wrist
  • For choirs, string players and anyone who tunes by ear rather than by meter
  • No iPhone connection needed
  • Instant to open, which is the only thing that matters for a reference pitch

Do I need my iPhone?

Not while you are using it. This is a standalone watchOS app: it runs on the Apple Watch on its own, with the phone switched off or left behind. You do need an iPhone once, to purchase and install it — that is an App Store rule rather than anything about this app.

FAQ

Questions

Something else? Ask me directly .

What is a tuning fork app actually for?

Producing a known reference pitch so you can tune or pitch a voice against it by ear, rather than watching a needle.

Do I need my iPhone?

No.

Is this the same as a chromatic tuner?

No, and they solve opposite problems. This produces a pitch for you to match; Tuner Pro listens and tells you which note you played.

Can I use it with headphones?

Yes, which is worth doing in a noisy room.
