I have been using the free one for the past year. Worked perfect for keeping my tuba tuned. Decided to go with the paid app. Well worth the $2.

Works well on HTC Desire , looks good + has comprehensive options although the auto tune option can get itself in a muddle + is best ignored .

Well I put it up against a precision tone generator and it did very well; just a few cents sharp across the scales, very impressive! Guess the Android phone A/D is pretty good too. Wished that the tuning scale was simular to every other tuner I worked with C C# D Eb E F F# G G# A Bb B guess there is not a Sharp and Flat symbol on the phones yet. Maybe you could use Cap letters for each note and lower case “b” as Flat, and of course “#” as Sharp.
