Featured by Apple as "New and Noteworthy" on the main App Store landing page. Pitch Pipe+ is a tuner application for the playback of reference pitches, perfect for singing and tuning instruments. It consists of three views: Chromatic - Playback of all pitches from 6 octaves. Choose between the note sustaining indefinitely or for 3 seconds. Useful for choirs and a-capella singers as reference for starting note. Pitch Pipe - This one is for singers used to using chromatic pitch pipes. Sounds are sampled from actual pitch pipes. Choose between C-C and F-F pipes. Tap a currently playing note to kill it immediately. Guitar - Dedicated guitar tuner lets you tune to guitar samples in addition to the sine wave tone. Auto advance moves down the strings so you don't have to keep reaching for the phone. The following tunings are available: Standard, Dropped D, DADGAD, Open D, Open G, Open A. The last visited view is shown whenever you relaunch the app so you have instant access to your preferred view. Calibrate tuning from A = 414 to 466 Hz. Retina Displays supported.
Comfortable to use
This app looks and works like a traditional pitch pipe. It is easy to give a pitch unobtrusively from the midst of the choir.
Abandoned?
I loved this app. I used it occasionally and it always did what I wanted. But on iOS 17.0.3 it crashes on launch. And it has not been updated for years.
If all you want is a standalone pitch pipe, hard to beat
There are newer options available now such as Tunable that include a tuner and metronome as long as with pitch, but for a buck this still does the job of a pitch pipe is the only thing you need. These tones are triangle wave I believe (keyboard mode), and sound less harsh. The pitch wheel is however kind of harsh.
Great electronic pitch pipe!
This is a really nice and easy to use device. As a visually impaired musician, though, it does need some work to make it fully accessible. For example, when playing a guitar note, it’s not announced. Overall, though, a great app.
