    I've been using this for years and so have my buddies. It helped me learn basic chords, strumming, etc. It helps me tune my guitar and it helps me when I'm at my buddy's when he needs to tune his banjo. Great app, would recommend!!

    GuitarTuna is awesome

    It works just like a professional-grade guitar tuner. It was spot on and it works on ukuleles and banjos. It is awesome. Everything you would want wrapped in the one, that way whenever you go somewhere you don't have to bring along your professional tuner or your little tuner, you can just bring your phone.
