I’m 99% sure that a professional piano tuner would be better served with a dedicated tuning device than a $999 Android tuning app.

No idea. Probably cause it’s a bit gate-keepy in the way I say “any tuner worth their salt” as if it’s the only way to achieve good results.
I haven’t met a tuner that uses anything other than forks. Maybe that’s because all the pianos I’ve worked with have been in good condition, so haven’t needed drastic measures applied. As I haven’t met a tuner that uses anything else, I can’t say if they are better/faster/whatever. I just assumed it’s the industry standard, like how orchestras tune by ear

Do you own a piano? Have you ever had one tuned?

I haven’t, but I’ve had many grand and baby grand pianos tuned after being moved onto stage, and a guy comes in and does it by ear.
I asked them why they didn’t have a stroboscopic tuner or something, and they’ve always found it easier with a couple forks and by ear
