Any recommendations on a belt tuner?

The Prusa belt tuner app on my Samsung Galaxy S24 doesn't work.  When you enable listening, put the microphone near the belt, and start strumming the belt, the app doesn't indicate anything (it's like the app doesn't hear the sound).  Is there any better way to insure the belts are tuned properly?  I have printed the tower, and I get a little layer shifting about 5mm up the tower, but otherwise, the tower is fine.

If you hum in to the phone does the app pick that up? You should be able to trick the phone in to thinking it’s a belt. If not you might have to allow microphone access to the app. I’m not an Android user so I can’t tell you where to look, but I’m guessing there is some privacy section in the phone’s settings.

75 - 80 Hz is good value to start.

Remember doing a Homing Tower an Set the alignment right!

So I have a Samsung S24 Ultra and had the same issue and it was driving me nuts. Quick question, do you have "Link to Windows" enabled on the phone to connect to your PC via the Phone Link app? If you do then disable "Link to Windows" on the phone or disconnect from the phone in the windows Phone Link app. I did this then it was able to hear and work as it should.

Sorry, I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra.  The Link to Windows is disabled.  The Prusa belt tuner still doesn't work.
