JustDrones - Tunable Just Intonation Drones App Reviews

This app really needs e flat and a flat!

Good app-the drones are incredibly useful when working on tuning, and the complex waveforms (not just straight sine waves) are a big plus. Only four stars because the design isn't the best (the on/off button is too big, the note buttons are too small, and landscape orientation would be nice) and it would be nice to have multiple octaves. To the person asking for e flat-play d sharp, close your eyes, and you'll hear e flat :-)

I just bought this and I'm really impressed. Very nice for intonation and impovisation practice, especially for strings players.

Love the app but would be better if the drone continued to play when you turned the screen off. But other than that, no complaints!

Trumpet13, the drones work perfectly with the speakers. If you don't hear anything from them, it's because the mute switch on your iPhone is on. It's the very first thing listed on the app's support website FAQ,

You can choose all twelve keys as well as put a couple intervals on to the root note, and fine tune the pitch up or down 50 cents. That being said, I do not like the sound one bit. Check out the demo on the website and make sure you can deal with the tone cos it is odd to play along with in my opinion.

It does everything that it promises and has some really cool features. The only complaint that I have is that the ui could use some updating.

I’ve had this app on two phones over several years. I’m surprised to see low ratings from some but I guess they didn’t know what Uilleann pipes were.

This is an excellent practise tool. I play Uilleann pipes and flute and find this app very useful.

Mostly fine, but drones do not sound through the iPhone's speaker. It can only be used with an external sound device such as headphones or speakers. This is an issue for me as I prefer to play without wearing headphones and portability is affected by needing an external speaker.
