Free Online Guitar Tuner

Tune your guitar in seconds, accurate, browser-based, works on any device.

How to use it

Tune your guitar in three steps.

i

Allow microphone access

Click the orange microphone button. Your browser will ask permission to use your mic, say yes. Nothing is recorded or stored, the audio is processed locally on your device.

ii

Pluck a string

Pluck any string clearly. The tuner will detect which string you're playing and tell you whether it's flat, sharp, or in tune. The needle on the dial shows you which way to turn the tuning peg.

iii

Tune to the centre

If the needle leans left, your string is flat, tighten the peg. If it leans right, you're sharp, loosen it. When the needle sits centre, the string is in tune. Repeat for all 6 strings.

Beyond tuning

In tune is just the beginning. Now what do you play?
