Reviews

Great!

Love the app, obviously the adds are going to be annoying, but that’s like any app you download.


Annoying ads
really005

After every knot view you get 5–6 seconds of an advertisement most of time, the same one every time.


Adds

Used to be good.

I used this app to learn many knots a while ago. Upon searching for it again, I see it has been ruined by ads that can’t be closed. too bad


Nah I’ll Pass

Just doesn’t cut it. Sorry. There’s other free apps that aren’t so obtrusive with the ads. So ya can’t really say “well it is free so that goes along with it”. The other completely free knot app only has little ads down on the bottom and never takes you away from your page as well as have to x outta it in order to move forward. Not animated like the other app free app either which pic to pic is handy but once you see tying in animation pics seem and are so less than. I know there may be a paid version but that’s actually keeping me from paying for the paid app instead of making me want more it made me want less and with a quickness as well.


App

Lining it so far


Great app
Clarke’s iCloud

Put together well, easy to use app.


It’s free which is great , lots of ads
MYC5

The fact it’s free is always great. And they need to make money some how. But ads on every knot is annoying enough to want to go pay for another ap.


Knot guide
Shel-man

Terrible app. Poor knot instruction and constant bombardment with adds making it nearly impossible to follow the knot instruction. Don’t bother. There are better choices


Works ok
Megiddo4

Ads interfere
