Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Find the right knot for your situation by voice or text, use photo-assisted checks, and keep your own knot journal. Learn 218 knots with animations and 360° views.
Learn useful knots. Remember them when it matters.
Knotwise brings knot guides, short lessons, practice, and everyday tools together in one app. Learn how to tie a knot, find one for the job, and keep a record of the knots you use.
218 KNOTS TO EXPLORE
Follow step-by-step tying instructions and animations, with interactive 360° views to help you understand the rope path. Slow the animation down, repeat a step, and look at the finished knot from different angles.
FIND A KNOT FOR YOUR SITUATION
Describe what you need by voice or text. Whether you are tensioning a tent line, tying to a dock, or attaching a fishing hook, Find uses AI to suggest relevant knots from the library. Read a short explanation and open the tying guide with a tap.
PHOTO-ASSISTED KNOT CHECKS
Take a photo or choose one from your library. Check helps identify the knot you intended to tie, then lets you confirm the match or select another knot. Follow the knot's visual checks and compare your work with its tying guide. Photo suggestions are a starting point, not a pass/fail or safety verdict.
YOUR OWN KNOT JOURNAL
Keep your work in My knots. Save multiple photos with a title, notes, and tags. Zoom in to revisit the details, filter your collection, and edit entries as you learn. Your private collection syncs with your account, and saved photos stay available offline.
LEARN THROUGH PRACTICE
Start with the essentials or follow courses for camping, fishing, boating, climbing, scouting, and other activities. Lessons explain uses, tying steps, and common mistakes before testing what you learned. Field notes add practical context around the rope.
BUILD YOUR RECALL
Practice identifying knots, choosing one for a situation, and remembering what you have learned. A spaced review schedule brings knots back over time, while your streak, progress, and accuracy help you follow your practice.
A LIBRARY THAT FITS YOU
Browse by activity or knot family, search names and alternate names, and save favorites. Your learning plan, progress, and review deck sync with your account so you can continue on another device.
KEEP LEARNING WITHOUT A SIGNAL
The knot library, tying animations, and 360° views are stored on your device. AI recommendations, photo identification, and account sync need an internet connection. Journal photos must be downloaded before they can be viewed offline on a new device. No ads.
SUBSCRIPTION
Knotwise requires a subscription. Available plans, local prices, and any eligible free trial are shown in the app before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, or when an eligible free trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.
SAFETY
Knotwise is an educational reference. AI suggestions and visual checks cannot certify that a knot or rope system is correct or safe. Critical uses require qualified hands-on instruction, suitable rated equipment, and inspection before use.
