Google Search Has An Instrument Tuner
Google Search now has a handy built-in tuner, letting you use the microphone on your phone or computer to tune a guitar, Android Police reports. To access the feature added this week, search for “Google Tuner”. The interface is similar to dozens of guitar tuning apps already available. You play a string on the guitar and Google detects the note you’re aiming for and tells you to “tune up” or “tune down” as needed.

Like other guitar tuning apps, Google Tuner’s effectiveness depends a lot on the hardware you’re using. My iPhone 12 Pro (via Safari) or a Windows desktop with a blue snowball USB microphone (via Edge) had no trouble listening and helped me tune a nonamplified electric guitar, but the more affordable Android device I’m currently reviewing (with Chrome) couldn’t. I don’t take it at all. Your mileage may vary substantially.
As with other guitar tuner apps, I don’t think Google Search’s feature will destroy the market for dedicated hardware tuners from the likes of Korg or Bass. It depends a lot on the quality of the mic on your instrument, and there’s no easy way to plug in an electric guitar without worrying about background noise. But if you need to tune in in a pinch, Google Search is now for you. Google Search’s built-in device tuner has a simple interface, but its effectiveness depends on the quality of the microphone in use.
Google has added a new feature that allows users to easily tune their string instruments. The Internet giant has added an instrument tuner to its search engine that lets you tune a guitar using your device’s microphone. The new inbuilt tuner works like any other guitar tuning available in various app stores. The feature is live now, and users need an updated browser and a phone or computer with access to a microphone to try it out. You can access the tuner by typing “Google tuner” in the Google search bar.
The rollout of the latest feature was first spotted by Android Police. Google has unveiled an instrument tuner feature on its search platform on Thursday, October 7, the report said. Chromatic Tuner’s interface is familiar and works just like any other popular instrument tuning app in the Google Play Store or Apple’s App Store — a very physical tuner. When the user plays a string on their guitar, the tuner quickly catches the note and gives instructions to play the note on target.

To use the feature, you must give Google permission to use your device’s microphone. The output from the instrument tuner will depend on the quality of your mobile phone or computer’s microphone, but should generally work well with most devices.
Google has recently introduced several features for its platforms. The search giant released Chrome 94 stable update last month with new security features, new functionality and bug fixes for Android, iOS, Mac and Windows operating systems. The company recently announced eco-friendly routing, light navigation for cyclists, and bike and scooter share information features on Google Maps to reduce users’ carbon footprint.
Google has also added new search filters in Gmail for Android. The new feature allows users to quickly and easily filter email search results on their mobile devices. Search filters should appear below the search box in the Gmail app. The filter can be a name or a specific time range. In addition, Google has released new settings for the Google app on Android that allow users to choose personalized search results.

If you’re a musician and find yourself stranded somewhere without your trusty portable guitar tuner, Google can come to the rescue. You can call up a fully functional tuner in any web browser to help tune your six-string.
1. In a web browser, use Google to search for “Google Tuner” or “Google Guitar Tuner”. The tuner should appear at the top of the Google search results page.
2. Click or tap the microphone icon. You may need to allow the browser to access your device’s microphone.

3. Select a string to start tuning. You may need to be closer to the phone, tablet or computer to hear the guitar properly.
4. Google Tuner will try to detect which note you are playing and display it along with an indication of whether it is sharp or flat. If it is perfectly in tune, the green triangle will illuminate along with the “In Tune” message.
After clicking the microphone icon, Google Tuner will automatically detect your guitar strings as you play them. Dave Johnson

Quick Tip: Wait for consistency before adjusting a note; A plucked string often registers slightly sharper.
Google Tuner is designed to be used only for standard tunings and has no settings or preferences to adjust. For more tools and toys from Google, though, click the arrow under Tuner to see additional options like metronome, color picker, automated coin flipper, and more.

A new feature called “Google Tuner” was spotted by Android Police a few days ago. To activate it, just google “Google Tuner” and you’ll get a fully functional tuner that uses your computer or phone’s mic to listen to and notify you of the sounds coming from your guitar (you have to allow it first). It’s in tune.

According to Android Police, similar functionality existed before and you could enable it by telling Google Assistant to “tune my instrument,” but now it’s available as a search phrase and it works from any device.
Oddly enough, it only works if you type “Google Tuner” into the search box. If you search for “guitar tuner” or “instrument tuner” you won’t get the same result, which makes absolutely zero sense.
I’ve tried the feature on a Mac and iPhone and it works satisfactorily, but it certainly doesn’t replace my standard guitar tuner (if you’re using an iPhone you’ll need to play a bit louder). But hey, your phone is always with you and your guitar tuner might not be.
