Love this app

I just got the CM 17 machine and decided to download this app. OMG! It has made my hooping and placement so much easier. Receive my design to my iPad, snap a pic of my hoop with my iPad, do a little adjusting on the screen, send it back to my machine and there it is, exactly in the right spot! Love, love this app!!!

App works great!

My iPad is v 14.4.2 and have no problems as have some reported.
This app really helps to get precise positioning of embroidery designs, and is easy to use.

Broken in iOS 12.1.4

Unfortunately this software is broken in the latest update to iOS for the iPad. You can take the initial picture but it does not advance to the next screens for fine tuning rendering this once great feature of the skyline S9 and Memory Craft 15000, completely useless.

Love this app. So easy to use. It’s my new best friend 😁

Mixed thoughts

I have tried this app numerous times and am frustrated. I have had to repeatedly dump and reload it. I have found that the app freezes or won’t acknowledge my janome 15000. When it does take a picture it seldom displays the adjustment markers. I am glad that this app is free because it isn’t at this point worth the hassle. When it works properly it is awesome, but isn’t often enough.
