When the Tuner Isn't the Problem
A guitar that won't stay in tune is usually the nut binding, the tuning machines slipping, or new strings that haven't stretched, and a tuner can't fix any of them. A guitar that's in tune open but sharp at the twelfth fret is intonation, which is the saddle: part of a $79 setup on an electric, sometimes more on an acoustic. The tuner reads the note it's given; it doesn't move the saddle.

Tuning and Intonation
A tuner can't fix intonation: if the fretted note at the twelfth fret reads sharp or flat against the open string, the saddle is the fix. On an electric that's part of a standard setup, $79, strings extra. Service is first come, first served.
