I’m looking for a guitar tuner app that is FOSS/private in nature.

I saw one called tunerly, but figured I’d check here if there are any recommendations.

      Sometimes I’m not at home and find a guitar. Sometimes I’m at home and my phone is closer than my tuner is.

      You’ve got a computer in your hand that can do millions of things. Why don’t you buy something to do one task instead of installing free software?

        A dedicated piece of hardware is going to be significantly more accurate and easier to use.

          I actually own a chromatic tuner, and it stays at home with my guitar. Sometimes I’m elsewhere and need a tuner. Which for the record the recommended Tuner app is phenomenal, and very accurate.

          Definitely NOT more accurate with 95% of tuners available to buy. Just simpler, dedicated UI. So yes, easier to use.

          Tuners are dedicated to sell, not tune better.

            LOL what? You could say the same about literally any product or service. But ultimately they have to provide a product or service that the purchaser wants or needs or they can’t sell them…
