Braw Bagpipe Tuner

This is a fantastic tool to balance the notes on your chanter and get “a number” for tuning others. The notes are compared to low A and are shown as flat-sharp in comparison. With this information you can make the adjustments in the usual ways.

Looks very helpful & the price is right. Unfortunately I can't get it work. The Calibration step appears to freeze: the count down doesn't start & there is no recourse but to abandon the app. Also; there is no option for support or bug reporting (except this review). Can't go lower than one star. 😜 Update: Discovered that my Restrictions setting prevents the app from asking to use the microphone (too bad even the message is blocked 😜). Now that obstacle is gone the Calibration seems to work. Hint: Add a note on this to the Help info.

Our band has been using the premium app for a year now. We are quite happy with it compared to other we have used! To have a piper play up the scale and then stop, and then be able to see the recorded notes is a big plus!

I actually paid $30 for this garbage. It is impossible to get it to work correctly to actually tune your chanter. Stick with the FREE bagpiper tuner App. Much easier to use.

$30?? only a fool would spend $30 just to see if the app was any good. I guess this is more of a sucker finder than a bagpipe tuner

I purchased the premium upgrade and have never got it to work properly...I am so frustrated. I have contacted the site...no one has returned my messages. Wish I could use the app.

Read the Description carefully about free and “fully functional with in app purchase”. There is no real deception here in the description if you read the description. It states “Free” and fully functional with in app purchased. So basically the free is a trail version and will be fully functional once you give up $30. In the free version, when you look at the notes half of them are “X” out and don’t appear to be functional. It might be good for the $30, I’m not taking the chance and paying $30 for this app.

Seems to be quite advanced with an averaged readout of tuning, however, to do something as basic as set reference A to 440, it asks for a $30 upgrade fee. Back to normal tuners for me, I think.
