Wooly: Ravelry Knitting and Crochet Reviews

Wooly is great

Elyse147

I love this app. It’s my go to when I want to see beautiful work. It functions great and there is plenty of eye candy to give me new ideas and keep me motivated to try new projects.

I don’t knit a super lot, but liked having the app to access Ravelry when I was out and about. But now I just can’t login anymore. I do have a new iPhone 11 with all the latest updates. So I’m wondering if Wooly has kept up with the iOS updates???

I love Wooly!

Wooly is my iPhone’s connection to posting yarn and project photos on Ravelry. If it weren’t for Ravelry, I could not keep track of all my yarn. So, you could say Wooly is that important, too! I post photos to Ravelry, then later can fine tune everything on my desktop. Thank you for creating Wooly!

Facebook???

I've been using and loving Wooly for years. This morning I discover that I need to sign in using Facebook? I don't have and don't want Facebook. There's no reason to log in with FB when we all have ravelry accounts ... that's why we are using the app. Wooly, as far as I'm concerned, you've bricked your app.

Non facebook user

I just noticed that my app updated. Tried to take a look and it requires me to login with a facebook account. I am not a fan of facebook, nor do I own or ever will have an account. Too bad I won't be using this app. Remove the facebook requirement and I'll rate with more stars.

Why do I now need a Facebook account to access Ravelry via this app.

Before just being a member of Ravelry was enough, but no more. Sadly, that means no more Wooly for me.

Old features now locked behind a subscription

I went ahead with the Facebook login to see the changes in this update, and boy was I disappointed. They made the decision to take away the in-app photo editing and place that behind the subscription as well. Instead of being brought directly to the dash, you're now brought to the Discovery page of new patterns, a redundancy of Featured Patterns. The first one you can see for free, after that, you need to a premium account. But you can share them on Facebook! /sarcasm It is not worth $9.99 a year to see patterns that are on other websites like a knock off Pinterest. Or to upload photos from the app when I can already do it directly through the Rav site or through the #ravelry hashtag on Instagram.

Newest version - bug fixes?

I think a bigger bug has been created with the Facebook sign-on requirement. I'm about ready to give up and delete this app. It's too bad because the early version was so useful.

This app is no longer accessible without Facebook.

Disappointed Knitter

This used to be my go-to knitting app, but the latest update requires a Facebook to log in, and I don't want a Facebook.

Argh. So sad to lose Wooly

I've loved the Wooly app for years and find it super for adding project photos, actually it's the only way I've done that for the past year or so. So I was not happy to see that I can no longer use the app as it no requires a Facebook login. Sigh...... I've never had a Facebook account and do not intend to ever start one. Do now I will have to figure out alternatives to Wooly. Off to purchase alternatives........
