A vanishing skill, a working knowledge of knots is indispensable when you need it. How often have you secured a load with an assemblage of various "granny" knots, and known there was a better way? It's easy to carry a short line wherever you go, and practice with this exemplary app when you have a moment. It categorizes knots by likely use (e.g., boating, general "useful"), and you can change perspective and speed. There are special knots that do cool things you wouldn't imagine. Try it!

I absolutely love this app! Not only is there a multitude of knots, the feature that shows the knot being tied is great. This feature will show the knot being tied & you can stop it, control the speed, and reverse all with a slider control that works very well. It has more knots than I will ever need but when I do it's right here with a perfect view.

Fantastic 3D animations, people really should learn knots, they are invaluable in many situations. Having lived in Alaska for 3 years, the first agenda is how to Survive in the Wilderness. If you want to get home Alive, survive and thrive Knots are absolutely essential. Great app for learning, Brovo to the team, this is a First Class App!
