What's New in KnittingHelp Video Reference

September 22, 2017
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
- Updated for compatibility with newer iOS devices and screen sizes.
- iOS 11 compatible.
- Simpler layout and easier to read fonts.
- Various bug fixes.
In almost every video the camera moves away from the presenter's hands while the presenter does the most important step. This is most aggravating. What I don't understand is why these videos weren't corrected or re-done. Certainly the developer could see that 90% (no exaggeration) of the videos lose the camera.
If it wasn't for this monumental mistake, this would be a reasonable source of knitting instructions for the relatively new knitter. As is, it is useless.
