Albert:

 

Trust me, the software is not deficient.  TuneLab is something that needs to
be set up to match both the tuner's taste, and the scale of the piano.
There are more ways than most to set it up though I've seen people have
trouble understanding the concept.  

 

TuneLab uses octave sizes that you can choose (i.e. 8:4, 6:3, 4:2...) but
people who don't understand the theory sometimes have trouble setting those.
Personally I like 3:1 12ths but TuneLab is very flexible.  I can't imagine
not being able to find an octave size that suits with the options available.

I've been using Cybertuner (PDA) for about 8 years and keep trying the
Tunelab on my iPad (I love the big screen). I can't get enough stretch with
the tunelab, especially on larger Steinways. What settings do you use? Any
tips would be appreciated.

I'm glad someone else has mentioned this issue with Tunelab.  While I don't
use Tunelab myself, a colleague with whom I work very closely does use it.
We work together in an institutional setting, so we hear each other's work
all the time.  One thing I noticed as soon as he switched from Cybertuner to
Tunelab was that much of the treble was coming out flat.  It may be a
hardware issue, because he runs Tunelab on an iPhone, whereas he was running
Cybertuner on a Dell PDA.  But now that someone else has mentioned this
issue, I'm again wondering whether the software is somehow deficient.
