Ratings and reviews

It doesn't sync between devices. What they call synching is just uploading to a cloud from one device and downloading it on another. If you last used a pattern on one device and didn't upload it or something happens to it, you won't be able to access that most recent update. I would have subscribed just for that. I can use Samsung notes and do virtually everything else, including actual synching.

I like this app to keep track of my rows and stitches. The manual can be vastly improved for instructions on how to assemble linked markers. Setup is very nice, but I am using it on a phone and cannot get it to crop and join charts because the phone is too small and unresponsive. I really, really, REALLY want this app on my desktop where I have a mouse! Having this as a desktop would make it the best on the market. I could edit my patterns, then send them to my phone to knit.

Convenient; does what I need. I shouldn't have to install an app to find out price. Your website with video tutorials etc. has an FAQ with a "paid options and cost" entry. Guess what info is conspicuously absent? Yeah it's the cost. Tell. Me. The. Cost. Up. Front. I want to know the pricing for all available tiers. A knitting app is not an "if you have to ask you can't afford it" moment. Pricing is public information. EDIT: gimme numbers and a currency; I can look that up, easy.

What’s new

A whole new way to work with color! Now you can select from an unlimited color palette, select from recently used colors, create named colors and use them throughout your project, and manage named colors including categorizing them and sharing them across projects and devices.

Get instant help with any stitch! When you used a named color with Magic Markers and Custom Markers, you can tap the stitch while knitting to instantly see the description of how to perform that stitch.
