Actually, he has apparently issued it on iPhone, just not available  
from iTunes App Store. From the horse's mouth, 9/23/08 Piano World  
Forum (I stumbled across this).

"Tunic OnlyPure (the piano version of the Tunic software) is available  
for the iPhone now.

iPhone version 2.0.2 upwards supports sample rates up to 44.1 kHz, so  
no problem to use it for piano tuning. You can try Tunic Guitar Free  
(available shortly on the App Store in iTunes) to get an idea of the  
look and feel of the program. Tunic OnlyPure will at the moment not  
appear on the App Store, since it is only intended for professional  
piano tuners, and is available through ad hoc distribution.

You can get more information about the program on our homepage.

For anyone interested in Stopper's theory behind his 12th based tuning  
system, the following link has his basic article, apparently updated  
in 2004 from the original 1988.
