Field notes
The page distinguishes a free tuner from Pro features such as listening to audio from YouTube, Spotify, a backing track, or a DAW. It describes pitch readings within one cent and an A4 reference range of 415–466 Hz. The landing page says Pro will be a one-time Mac App Store purchase, gives a $24.99 early price, and invites visitors to join a list for one launch email.
