Do you have a smartphone?

No different from using the camera, or the mp3 player, or the mobile internet, or any other app for any other purpose.

Saying that, Idon't actually use my phone as a tuner. I've a Polytune 2 mini that I use exclusively, it's awesome!

@hobbio The phone is Smart, me, less so.

I use TU2 for most performing & rehearsing situations. I think I have 3 on different pedal boards.

I have a super-duper Korg tuner for intonations (can't recall the model as I am at work) - considering a Strobe Tuner of some sort for setups.

Clip on ones for acoustic duties - easily lost/misplaced though.  They are much more reliable tuning to 12th fret harmonics. I prefer Intellitouch clip-ons.

I found the really small models (can't recall which make, D'Addario ?) eat CR2322 batteries at an alarming rate.

In a parallel universe somewhere:
All the Stones albums were recorded with Keef's guitar perfectly in tune.
Adele's first 2 albums were recorded and released with autotune applied.

Nobody bought them. I haven't asked why as it is obvious.
