There are loads of tools on this app, although I haven’t used them much so far. My favorite feature is being able to open you pattern pdf with the row counter over it. There is one thing that is missing for me that I was utilizing in another app- having a global row counter and the ability to have a secondary counter that automatically restarts when it hits a certain number. This is especially helpful for increases and decreases, so you’re not having to do the math of what row you have to get to next. And then the global counter increases each time you hit the secondary counter. That would make this app perfect for me!
Subscription & pay extra

First, the idea for the app is good. I like the guides showing the pattern row by row only for your size. But I have some issues. You have to pay a subscription to use the app and then pay extra to create the Smart Parser (AI) guides that break down the pattern into the rows for your specific size. The guides are the major selling point of the app. I don’t think you should have to pay extra for credits to create them. I think this main function of the app should be included as part of the subscription. Yes there is the ability to create manual guides, but it is tedious and not sure that would be worth the cost of the subscription for me.Also the app crashed 2 of the 3 times that I created my guide for the Links Cardigan/Vest which wasted 2 of the 3 included credits. Yes it’s a more complicated pattern than the Sophie Scarf they show as a sample, but the app needs to work on these patterns too. I’m not willing to pay for more credits to use on other patterns if I might lose them to crashes. The app is a good idea, but the pricing model and functionality needs more work.
The App we’ve always wanted
ELindsay23
As a new knitter, I found the knitting patterns overwhelming and to easy to make mistakes when following. I tried the printing out and highlighting and notes and stitch markers, I did it all but I still emended up forgetting where I was or what the next stitch meant. Finally this app does it all for me, it keeps me on track, no more crazy notes everywhere and my projects actually turn out the way they are supposed to. This app gives me the confidence and clearing I desperately needed when reading knitting patterns. I’m so impressed by the team who built this and I’m forever grateful for making me feel like a more confident knitter

Awesome App-But extremely slow or no response
3Labmom
Loving the app and paid for a year’s subscription. But i have messaged through multiple channels question and no one has answered. Also Community needs more work. Hard to find others unless you already know them. Hopefully these are on the future roadmap. Otherwise I am loving the app creating a guide and then going through it. No longer do i need to worry about paper notes and getting them lost. My patterns for WIP’s are always with me digitally.
