  • Awesome app

    Best app out there that does all the tracking type things. It has a timer It will track stitches! It will show you progress photos. It gives you minute by minute detailed information on your projects. Easy to use. And user friendly.
  • Love the app, but…

    Love using this app for tracking time and stitches on each project, but after the latest update it erased all the times I worked in a day on every project. Hope this can get fixed!

    Thanks for your feedback. Please make sure that the project list isn't filtering out the project that you added. For example, if you are showing started projects and add a project to the wish list, it won't show up in your list.
  • Best cross stitch journal app

    I’ve been using the app for a while now and loving it. However, I went to add a new project and didn’t save info and didn’t add it. It’s been like that for a few weeks now. Please fix.

  • Great App

    This is just what I’ve been looking for to track my stitches. I would like to offer a suggestion. Is there a way to backup your logs? Or export/ import the data?If something goes wrong with my phone all my data will be gone.

    Otherwise a great App!

    The app's data is synced and backed up to iCloud. Make sure that the app is allowed to access iCloud and your data will be available on another phone.
  • XS journal review.

    This is a very good app. One should be aware that you can only add 3 projects before you are required to buy the app. This is understandable but it took me by surprise. Thanks for all your hard work to develop a good app.
  • Excellent app

    I love this app for tracking both the time I am stitching as well as number of stitches completed. The graphs and other tools are so helpful to visualize how much progress I am making. Thanks so much for making this app. I am wondering if there is a way to add my progress for a day of stitching where I did not do the timer to start stitching and then to end stitching? Sometimes I just want to be able to enter my progress when I have forgotten to do the timer. So far I have not found a way to do this. Am I missing something?

    To do this all you need to do is add a log instead of using the stitching button.
  • Best Cross Stitch App

    I’m loving this app. I like that I can time my projects now and was able to import my excel file so I didn’t lose my information and data. Thanks Brian!
  • Awesome app!

    I love this app it’s so easy to use and the tracking options are great. It’s a very functional app for keeping track of your stitching. Just about any feature you can think of that you would need is there and if not, it will likely be in a future update. You can offer suggestions and report bugs and you do get helpful responses. Highly recommended this app!
  • Not counting correctly

    I found this and thought “finally something to track my stitching without having to keep a spreadsheet”! However after using it for a few days I’m realizing it doesn’t count correctly. I use a stitching app that allows me to check off stitches so it has up to date progress of how many stitches I did for the day and shows the remaining stitches. At the end of my sessions I put my total stitches for the day in my session in this app and save. When I then look at “number of stitches remaining” in this app and compare it to the other one it is always 4-5 stitches short compared to the other. I’ve even adjusted it and added a few stitches to the session so it matches my stitching application, the next session? Same issue. Maybe it’s just a bug, but it’s a little frustrating. Hopefully an update will be able to fix this in the future.

    Thanks for your review! Can you please check and make sure that the total number stitches for your project matches the total stitches that are entered in your other stitching app? If they do and you are still seeing a different number of remaining stitches, please contact me through my support email address. I would like to work with you to figure out what the problem is.
  • Best Cross Stitch Journal App EVER!!

    I’ve tried other apps in the past but this one by far is the best! The best features - tracks so many data points and creates charts and graphs in all possible ways to show progress and predict finish dates. Trends, hours, stitches… you can track it all or just track what you want. It has a simple yet elegant interface that is easy to use. My favorite feature is the timer start and stop from the projects screen to track every stitching session and capture logs. From a wish list to a “pause” (time out) list, this app has everything! I’ve already paid for the full version because I know I’ve finally found for good the perfect app that will track my stitching!!
