On Your Home Screen
Pitch, Please! sports a three-octave range in C-C or F-F and features four original, high-quality sound banks that can play short samples (clarinet or piano) or loop them continuously (strings or horns). Or, for pinpoint accuracy, use our custom sine wave generator instead and avoid those annoying loud pops that some other apps create. All sound options can be finely tuned to your preferred frequency.
It even works when your device is in silent mode, so you don’t have to remember to flip the switch each time or worry about embarrassing interruptions.
On Your Lock Screen
With iOS 16, add the built-in widget to your lock screen to jump right into the app at any time with just a quick tap.
Or use the older Today View widget* for an instant, interactive experience: swipe from left to right on your lock screen, the home screen, or Notification Center (accessed by swiping down from the top of the screen from within any app). Tap a note to hear it with your preferred octave and tuning. It couldn’t be simpler.
*Apple has retired this older style of widget but it is still available as of iOS 16. As soon as Apple allows us to create a modern replacement for it, we plan to.
On Your Apple Watch
Your wrist is the perfect place for a pitch pipe, and watchOS is just the thing to bring it to life. Use the Digital Crown to select your note, and tap the “play” button to hear it through the Apple Watch’s built-in speaker or through your connected Bluetooth audio device. Add the included complication to your watch face for even quicker access at any time.
Just like it’s larger counterpart, Pitch, Please! for Apple Watch can play your note using the same beautiful clarinet or piano samples, or generate a tone tuned to your exact frequency (due to technical limitations, fine tuning is currently unavailable for Clarinet and Piano sounds on watchOS).
Best of all, the Apple Watch app is bundled with the iOS app, so there’s no extra charge to download it. It even works independently so you can install and use it without having the iOS app installed on your phone. If you’ve got an Apple Watch, it’s a no-brainer.
Pitch, Please! for Mac
Even on your Mac, you can always access the streamlined utility you love no matter which screen you’re using. It’s the same great experience as on all of your other devices, but with full support for Mac standbys like the menu bar and touch bar. Thanks to its extensive support for keyboard shortcuts across all devices, you’ll feel right at home with Pitch, Please! whether you’re using a touch screen, keyboard and cursor, or both.
