Tuner in F-droid is good. I've used several different android based tuner apps, and a couple Linux based tuner apps over the years and they've generally all been serviceable. Tuner is what I use at the moment.
I use insTuner on iOS. It’s a basic tuner, but seems to work well for all my instruments. It has a tone generator too, in case you prefer that method.
I have an old pitch pipe. If I can't tune by ear I get out the pitch pipe and blow into a certain note that matches the particular string. I then do my best to make them sound the same. I bought it once, back in the 80's, and it still works!
I use VocalPitchMonitor on android. It's free and just gives me a dead simple line showing pitch. It's not specialised for guitar at all, but all we need to know is which note the string makes when we pluck it

For Android I use Moessner's Tuner, it's precise and responsive.
On PC (Linux) I use Chromatic or the Guitarix team plugin if I'm working on a DAW.

A Steinway grand piano works for me.
