    My kalimba arrived yesterday. The app suggested for iPhone was not “intuitive” for me. I’ve tried several tuning apps. I will try the one you suggest in this video.
    Also, your video is so helpful to me! I’m glad I came across it. I knew there had to be a reason for the heavier side and lighter side of the hammer, I just didn’t know if it was a specific thing or not. I hope I am making myself clear in what I mean…
    Having said that, I Am having Fun with the tuning!!! I am not stressed, I am Enjoying the process!

    This is quite the old video but it was very helpful. The instructions I got with my 17 key kalimba were not extremely helpful on how to tune. Your tutorial confirmed what I thought I was supposed to do with the hammer but it didn't occur to me that I might use both ends of the hammer. I just got my kalimba for Christmas (2021) I don't play it a lot but I love the sound.

    I use the pointed end to space the keys, and also turn it so the wide part of the pointe end will push down (only down) and nudge the keys into tune with out tapping because I have a tendency to tap the keys on either side of the one I am tuning.

    My kalimba arrived this afternoon and you're right the lingting is beautiful! Both in desing and sound. I went to check the tuning and some tines needed to be adjusted a bit. Normal stuff. I was like "Goodbye Kalimba apps! I'm ready for this! I've watched the tuning video like 3 times!". Poor me. Changed my c4 into a b something and all I could think while I tried to undo it was "I didn't even play a song and already ruined it!" because I'm that dramatic. But I watched the video again and managed it! This app you suggested was my favorite from the ones I downloaded so thank u!♥️
