Need suggestions for iPhone app to test speakers at different frequencies

I sometimes get a tiny bit of subwoofer rattle which seems less the speakers, but perhaps the feet on the floor. In any case, I wanted to get an iPhone app that I could use via Sharing to my Apple TV that would emit different test tones at low frequencies. I've seen a variety - some with simple tones, some with sweeps, etc. This isn't to communicate with the sub, just to identify tones that might be causing problems and to confirm crossovers. An app that covers higher frequencies to isolate sounds/crossovers for all speakers would make sense, probably, not just one for subs so anyone have an iPhone app suggestion - need precise name and developer's name, too so I get the right one?

Do you own a laptop? If so, use REW to generate the tones, sent to your AVR via HDMI (or analog RCA from the headphone jack).

That being said, I am surprised nothing like this exists for iPhone, there are a plethora for Android (Android user here).

There are plenty for iOS - they go under tone generator,frequency generator, function generator, etc. the problem is there are too many of them (just like android).

The OP wanted a specific app, likely for the same reason. No other reason than to demand the exact name of the app and developer because you have to sort through a million of them.
