Ukulele Tuner

Tune your ukulele (G C E A) with your microphone, including low-G, D and baritone tunings, with reference tones to tune by ear.

– Tap “Start tuner”, allow the microphone, and play a string.

Tap a string to hear its reference note. With the tuner running, it follows whichever string you play.

How it works

How to tune a ukulele

  1. Start the tuner and play one open string at a time, letting it ring. Begin with the G string (nearest your chin).
  2. The tuner shows which string it hears. If the needle is left of center the string is flat — tighten it slightly. Right of center is sharp — loosen it.
  3. Always tune up to the note: if you go past it, drop below and come back up. The string holds its pitch better that way.
  4. When every string is in the green zone, play a chord you know and listen — then check each string once more, because tuning one string slightly changes the tension on the others.
