Frequently asked questions

The tuner does not detect the string

  • Bring the guitar closer to the device and play the open string, one at a time.
  • Reduce the noise around you: the tuner ignores very quiet sounds on purpose, so it does not "tune" the fan.
  • Check that the microphone permission is enabled in the system settings (see below).

I denied the microphone permission. How do I re-enable it?

  • iPhone/iPad: Settings → Apps → Tabs Pro → Microphone.
  • Android: Settings → Apps → Tabs Pro → Permissions → Microphone.

Without the permission, the tuner and recording become unavailable — but you can still generate chord charts from audio files.

Which audio files work?

MP3, M4A/AAC and WAV (16-bit PCM) saved on the device. Songs from streaming services are protected and do not open in any app — in that case, play the song out loud and record it through the microphone. If a WAV does not open, export it as 16-bit PCM or convert it to MP3/M4A.

The analysis takes long or the result came out strange

  • The analysis covers up to 3 minutes of audio; anything beyond that is ignored. Shorter recordings (30–90 s) give better results.
  • Clean recordings, with a single guitar and no vocals, are the ideal scenario. With a full band, the app approximates the predominant chords.
  • The chord chart is a starting point: tap a chord to correct it, use the half-step transposition and adjust the BPM in the tempo control (or mark the rhythm with the tap button).

What is the free preview?

You can convert 2 songs into chord charts for free. In upcoming versions, a one-time-purchase unlock (processed by the store) enables unlimited conversions. The tuner, playback and the chord charts already saved are not part of the limit.

How do I delete my data?

Everything stays only on your device: delete chord charts through the library or uninstall the app to remove everything. Nothing is kept on servers — details in the Privacy Policy.

Found a problem?

Write to contato@oakappware.com with:

  1. device model and system version (e.g. iPhone 14, iOS 18);
  2. app version (About screen, on the ⓘ icon in the library);
  3. what you were doing and what happened (if possible, with a screenshot).

The more details, the faster we can reproduce and fix it.
