It uses the built-in microphone or headset microphone to record the audible tick of the watch and calculates the seconds-per-day deviation. Works with almost any 'ticking' watch/clock. Use in a quiet environment. Any ambient noise can affect the accuracy of the results. Complete silence is best. Recommended way to record the ticks is to touch the crown of the watch with the headset microphone. You will get the best results using original Apple EarPods. This is a simple version of Watch Tuner application. Not everyone needs detailed information about a watch movement, sometimes only accuracy is important. Watch Tuner Lite uses very similar algorithm like Watch Tuner does but displays only seconds-per-day deviation. If you want to know how much your watch is fast or slow, this application is for you. If you prefer to measure also beat error and amplitude, try Watch Tuner - a bigger brother of this app. If you need frequency diagram look at Watch Tuner Timegrapher - the most sophisticated app of Watch Tuner series. ## Watch Tuner Lite Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/f2/36/10/f2361086-ca63-b1ac-9499-f9127601b895/wt_lite.jpeg/1242x2688.png) ## Watch Tuner Lite Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 19 (50%) - 4 stars: 2 (5%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 2 (5%) - 1 stars: 15 (39%) ## Watch Tuner Lite Reviews in United States ### ***** "Worked as intended" Keep it in a quiet area and adjust the sensitivity and it’ll help you get the right time set. Intuitive and simple, set +- 2 seconds for my 1913 Elgin that I’m sure fluctuates more from temperature than this can fix. -- Alexlink404, 2025-04-29 ### **--- "Works sometimes" Not very accurate, works occasionally -- Velo Kevin, 2024-11-04 ### ***** "Works with the right microphone and settings" I was able to get a reading when laying my watch face down on my iPhone near the built-in microphone (in the lower left corner). It didn’t work when laying the watch on its side—not loud enough. This did not allow me to measure my watch in different positions. I tried using my original AirPods, but that didn’t work at all. I finally pulled out the wired headphones that came with one of my iPhones. I held the microphone part against the back of the watch with a wire tie wrap. Masking tape should work even better. I set sensitivity = 2/3, noise cancellation = on, and measuring time = long. This produced stable results in most positions. These generally agreed with my seconds/day measurements for 24 hours, but of course is much faster! -- DrMEMS, 2022-11-14 ### *---- "+329 s/d…no matter what." Make all the adjustments you want, it’s +329 s/d. -- onlynname, 2022-08-04 ### ***** "Exceeded expectations!!" I don’t normally leave reviews but this warrants one! I tracked my watch visually by atomic time clock but hated the eyeball variance and waiting lol … I didn’t want to shell out hundreds for a pro watch timegrapher, either. I went out on a limb and paid the small fee for this and using Apple EarPods I never use this worked flawlessly!! Detected BPM, and it appears it validates my eyeball atomic method, but can be done in just a minute or two. Top work to the developer; this is one must have cool little app :-) -- chudc, 2022-07-02 ### *---- "Doesn’t work" I tried this on a variety of watches. I tried watch crown to iPhone microphone. I tried wired iPod microphone. I turned sensitivity up and down. Noise cancelling on and off. I could not even get a remotely accurate measurement of beats per hour. I get too much noise or no signal. Two days of fiddling. Also does not work even with the case back taken off of a noisy watch. -- jezebel37, 2022-04-28 ### ***** "Does exactly what you expect" I was a little bit skeptical before I got it, but it turned out to work well. Of course, it is less accurate than a Timegrapher for $100+, but it gives you excellent results nevertheless. The main hint is to put your watch and the mic into a box (preferably with thick walls), so it will catch far less noise than in an open environment (I used my Bose headphones case for that), and keep your phone outside the box to read the measurements. -- NSDmitry, 2021-11-05 ### ***** "Great alternative to dedicated timegrapher" While learning about how to regulate my mechanical watches, I game across this app. Buying a dedicated timegrapher seemed impractical. I used it to regulate the 7s26 movement in my Seiko SKX013. At first it gave me some strange results, but after playing with the microphone sensitivity it was reporting roughly what I’d been observing. It worked well using the built in microphone on my iPhone XS about 1 cm from the case (with case back on). I had the phone and watch on a desk on a mousepad in a very quiet room. I think a help screen would be nice, but after fiddling with it, it’s pretty straightforward. This combined with Marc’s video on how to regulate a movement on the Long Island Watch YouTube channel were extremely helpful. -- netvector, 2021-07-19 ### **--- "Not for case clocks" This app may be OK for a watch. I thought it would work also for a grandfather clock, but it isn’t. The app collects a certain number of ticks, and for a watch that’s a minute or two. For a tall clock, with 3600 beats per hour, this takes a l-o-n-g time. Not a good buy for clocks :( -- vpndev, 2021-06-09 ### ***** "The only review I’ve ever written" This worked exactly as expected. Like reallly really well. It’s obviously not a timegrapher, but if you use as directed you can set a Seiko 7s28 to within +\- 5 seconds/day or better. I hid in a quiet closet away from my loud kids and opened the caseback, set my iPhone wired earbuds mic on the case, and got a signal no problem. The measurement is way more accurate than your ability to push the 7s28 regulating lever, so it takes a few tries. I bought this thinking it might be a bust. It was so super good this is the only online review for anything I’ve ever written. If it’s not working for you, you’re not following the directions. The accuracy I have on an SKX007 is (for now) within 2 seconds/day and it feels like a million bucks because of it. Great job! -- Mike in Oakland, 2021-04-20 [View all Watch Tuner Lite reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Watch Tuner Lite Discovered Keywords -
