About Rosin: Violin Tuner
The first thing you do is rosin your bow. The second thing you do is tune. Generic guitar tuners don't understand the unique overtones and frequencies of a bowed string. Rosin is a beautifully designed, highly accurate chromatic tuner built exclusively for the orchestral and acoustic string player. Whether you are practicing in your bedroom, warming up in the orchestra pit, or preparing for a gig, Rosin’s custom algorithm isolates your pitch instantly, giving you stage-ready accuracy without the clutter. FEATURES: • Tailored for Strings: Dedicated modes for Violin, Viola, Cello, and Double Bass. • Advanced Temperaments: Switch between Equal Temperament and Just Intonation (JI) to perfect your ensemble intonation. • Highly Accurate Chromatic Engine: Catch every micro-tone on a gorgeous, high-contrast display. • Adjustable Calibration: Easily adjust your base frequency (A=440Hz, 442Hz, etc.) to match your orchestra or piano. • Reference Tones: Play pitch-perfect audio tones to tune by ear or practice with a drone. • Distraction-Free UI: A sleek, dark-mode design that looks beautiful and reads clearly on your music stand from a distance. Built by musicians, for musicians. Prepare for a perfect performance with Rosin.
What’s new
Version 1.2.6 · Updated October 11, 2026
Listening picks up again when you return to the app, and reference tones now play through your headphones. FIXED • When you come back after switching to another app, the tuner listens again instead of appearing to listen while hearing nothing, and a reference tone no longer shows as playing after it has stopped. • Reference tones and the drone play through connected headphones or Bluetooth devices instead of the built-in speaker, and a connected external microphone is used for tuning. • When you play a softer note an octave below the one on screen, the display now switches to it instead of staying on the old note. • With the drone on, notes an octave or a twelfth away from it — for example, a low D against an A drone — now show correctly instead of as the drone’s note. • If the App Store briefly can’t confirm your Pro purchase, your tuning and other Pro settings come back once it does, instead of being reset. The Pro screen also retries loading the price if it failed at launch.
