Version: Chromatia Tuner 3.4
"Better to buy a tuner at the music store"
Pros: Installed and ran properly right away, it's able to both generate and receive tuning notes, it comes with a nice display and with some program options.
Cons: Up on normal notes (with input using just from my laptop microphone), the meter-needle tends skip around all over the place. even when the "don't jump around" settings are turned up all the way. It doesn't work at all with low notes (ie., my tuba.)
Summary: For the same price or less, you can get a much more portable and well-behaved physical tuning meter down at your local music store.
(If the product were $6 or $8 instead of $20, I'd give it a much higher rating.) -
Version: Chromatia Tuner 3.4
"I'd have to say this is the most competent I've seen"
Pros: You can't sing or play a horn and watch a pocket-size tuner. They're dark and tiny and miserable............The full screen mode on Chromatia is insane. Unique and extremely visible.
Cons: With a shaky voice you have to turn the needle filter all the way up, but it does reach a usable level. There oughta be a volume compressor though, because it has perfectly understandable trouble hanging on to said skaky voice.
Summary: Best that I am aware of. Far and away the best for voice training and horn pitch training because of the BIG screen.

Version: Chromatia Tuner 3.4
Pros: Very accurate. Displays the tuning accuracy and the frequency. Excellant for the begining guitarist so you know which E you are tuning to, bass or standard etc.
Cons: 10 minute time out on the un paid for version. Still plenty of time to get in tune though.
Summary: Great piece of software. Well worth the price I think.
