I have been playing guitar for more than 15 years, and I always have the same problem: Where's the damn tuner ?! The strings of guitars and basses, both electric and acoustic, naturally loosen and consequently go out of tune continuously. Because, it is essential to have a good tuner on hand. They are devices that do not cost much and always do their job well.
Luckily, it is no longer necessary to buy this type of gadgets, since we can use our own smartphone or tablet and obtain equally satisfactory results. The application that we are going to talk about today is called Guitar tuna, And it is a guitar and bass tuner for Android that works just great. Yes Yes! It is also free.

The good thing about the app is that is to open it and get straight to tune. The app uses the microphone of our device, so no need to use any cables to tune the guitar. This could suggest that in some cases it does not reach a perfect technical tuning, but it also has a much more calculated professional mode for those looking for a tuning that is as accurate as possible.
The Guitar Tuna app works with various instruments, such as 6,7 and 12 string guitar, Ukulele, Cavaquinho, bass, violin, mandolin, banjo and balalaica.
It also includes various types of different tunings (dropped tunings, low midtone etc.), but in order to access them we will have to get hold of the Pro version of the application.
Metronome, games and chords
If we still do not master our instrument very well the app includes small games that will help us learn new chords and interpret the odd well-known song. It can be a good way to expand our knowledge or just have a good time. Finally, another very appreciated functionality is the inclusion of a metronome. A point in favor of Guitar Tuna.
It shows that the developers have not limited themselves to creating a simple tuner, and the truth is that the result is very positive. If you play an instrument and you are looking for a good tuner, or if you just want to learn a few chords, don't hesitate to give it a try.
