As of today, TuneWiki is a legit iPhone app that’s available in the App Store. You can check out our tunewiki review from the days when it was available only on Cydia.
Besides being available in the App Store, not much has changed. TuneWiki is a must have app for any music lover.
(From our previous review…)
Features:
- easy to use navigation buttons
- album art support for your music collection
- live song lyrics – sing along with your favorite tunes, and contribute back to the project with lyrics for your songs if they are not in the database.
- music maps – see what songs are playing near your location or in a specific region (like the United Kingdom)
- Tune Wiki Top 50 – see what other Tune Wiki users are playing
- help menu – shows you how to use the tunewiki interface
- very good reliability – never crashed during my tests
Limitations:
- it needs an internet connection, either WiFi or EDGE/3G because all the information displayed is stored on Tune Wiki’s servers.
- can be sluggish in low performance network conditions
We are glad that Apple’s new iPhone 3.0 allows access to the music library, which encourages developers to migrate their jailbroken-only apps to legitimate ones.
Strangely, TuneWiki is still available on Cydia, which is (we’re pretty sure) against Apple’s agreements.
Try Tune Wiki for free at the App Store.

App Store Top Charts
This is a real cool app. I actually find the website http://www.tunewiki.com also very interesting. Check out the maps and charts section, it has top 50 by area, you just drag the map and the top 50 changes based on your location or how you zoom in and out. Should be very cool for artists to see where they are played. This is the map link , it is kind of hiding in the website and i do not know why?

Also fun to have the lyrics translated on the website. I found a Chinese song that was played on the live feed and played it, and translated it to English…not came perfect but i could understand what is going on.
I would really like to try this out, but it doesn’t show on my Cydia, perhaps they have taken it down.
its in iTunes now, for free
