How to tune your ukulele

  1. Tap Start tuning and allow the microphone.
  2. Play one open string and let it ring. Auto names the nearest string; if it picks another one, tap the string you're tuning.
  3. Turn its peg until the marker sits in the middle and you see In tune.
  4. Do the same for every string, then check them all once more: tuning one string pulls a little on the others.

About ukulele tuning

Standard ukulele tuning is G C E A with a re-entrant G: the 4th string, nearest your chin, is tuned higher than the 3rd. That gives the ukulele its bright, close sound. The four strings match the top four strings of a guitar with a capo at the 5th fret, with the G an octave higher.
