## Tunepal Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great App!"
Useful app at sessions. It doesn’t always find the right tune, but I wouldn’t expect it to. The accuracy is pretty darn good though. Really happy the app was finally updated and now works offline! I also like that the app does not collect any personal data…all apps should be that way.
-- Graeck, 2025-08-07

### *---- "Freezes on use"
It appears this app had not been updated in quite some time, and the record/analyze features no longer function.
-- smaezane, 2025-05-15

### *---- "Useless"
Tunepal is useless if it simply craps out and crashes each time I record and submit a melody played on my mandolin. 99¢ wasted.
-- Prickly Picker, 2025-01-14

### *---- "Abandoned?"
No updates in years, and it fails completely on iOS 17.5. It was great while it lasted.
-- Mr. Archer, 2024-08-12

### *---- "Submitting then shuts down"
Love, loved this app. Used it all the time. Now it records, says it is submitting, but then closes with no response. So sad :(
-- SchafDawg, 2024-07-18

### *---- "Love this app but won’t function for me"
This is a great invaluable app. When it worked., but it stopped being able to record to my last iPhone several years ago. I tried u uninstalling but could never get it completely uninstalled. Asked for help several times and got none. On my new iPhone I have the same problem. Can’t seem to uninstall in order to try a fresh version. So sad.

### *---- "Crashing on search"
Have always loved using this app, but it now crashes on every search and is unusable.
-- StephenHebert, 2024-02-25

### *---- "Tunepal"
Just purchased this app. Tried to submit two tunes. Message said NSXML error 65. What gives?
-- Nerdnoc, 2023-10-05

### **--- "Please fix bugs!"
It used to work but the last update was 5 years ago. It crashes when I try to record, when I press on the preferences, when I press on the map, when I try to save a tune to my list. Luckily, saving to my list works after I re-open the app, but it had to crash before I can do that. Maybe new iOS upgrades have rendered this app obsolete?

### ***** "Great and very useful app. Needs reliable back-end"
This is such a useful app for finding Irish tune names in a session (or even out of your head, if you can play a snippet of the tune on an instrument but can’t recall the title). 
It does have frequent back-end outages, which prevents tune name lookups and is annoying. It will save them as “Unsubmitted tags” that you can upload later for ID. But by then the moment is usually gone. Hopefully the developer can remedy this issue. Would even be worth a small annual subscription ($5-10) if more money would buy a better backend service.
