Ratings and Reviews
Just brilliant
This is not only the best knot tying tutor you could ever wish to find in an app but it is definitely one of the very best learning apps I have ever come across.
I’ve had this for years now and the gradual adjustments they have made to the presentation have consistently improved from what was already a very clear tutorial. The information about the knots and their uses is so well directed and animated it’s almost worth a loud round of applause.
Not only that but they have added knots as time has gone on so there are now loads of solutions for any scenario. Take my word for it, this is the dogs doodads..
Knots 3D
Couldn’t tie a knot before to save my life, not even my shoe laces. But this app is an excellent instructor. It’s easy easy peasy to watch and imitate. As well as a sliding speed setter, you can scrub your finger over the image to wind back and forth at your preferred rate to scrutinise the knot technique. That is essential if, like me, you’re one of those slow learners who doesn’t hold the motion in your head no matter how slowly the process completes. What is there not to like. The developers have thought of everything. Finally, at sixty five years, I can now tie my shoe laces!
Developer Response ,
Try sliding/scrubbing your finger back and forth over the knot image. You’ll see that it acts as an “invisible” slider - slide right over the image to advance the animation or slide left to rewind. Cheers!
If you're getting into knot tying GET THIS!
Wow, what a great app! I especially like the A.B.O.K. references and the explanations of usage and strengths for particular occasions. The ability to have the app draw the knot at a speed set by yourself and also go full screen is awesome. This has quickly become my favourite app and quite frankly I can't see how it could be improved upon. I suppose the call for more knots will always be there, but then where do you end?
Brilliant!
