No longer works

I used to use this app to help when shopping. But it no longer connects and all my data is gone.

Thread list is just okay

I love that I can have a list of the threads I have and can choose multiple weights per color. What I don’t like is that when you want to look up a thread, you have to scroll through the whole list because they’re not in numerical order. You also cannot add multiples of the same color and weight. I wish some tweaks would be made.

Don’t bother

Since nothing works, why would I want it? Everything responds with service not available.

Very basic

It is useful to be able to “stash” colours and weights, but does not allow to specify the spool size, nor the quantity in one’s stash.
Also it does not synchronise between devices, so if you have lots of spools - as one does!!! - you will have to re-enter all of them if you want to be able to access you stash from a different device or simply a new one!!!
So most definitely this app is not up to their threads’ standards. Shame.

Update?

The last update two years ago reorganized the thread by number—great! Thanks! But why oh why are you deleting the thread names when the thread is retired? Why not write “(Thread Name) - RETIRED”? I need the thread names to help with color selection. Grrr.

Needs enhancements

1. Needs a search option so you can look for a number OR a color by name - general color like “blue” would be nice also
2. Needs preference options for ordering: by number, by color, by weight (in stash)
3. Needs a section those colors you want to buy next

Obviously NOT updated!

The only store listed in my region, has actually been closed at least 7 years! Nearby cities are not listed, and none of the quilt supply or general sewing store in the region are listed. Google is more helpful than this app.

Needs more work!

I have lots of Aurifil thread and would love to be able to use this app to record my thread stash BUT although Aurifil have helpfully detailed the different types of thread available you can only 'stash' the shade and not the wt. of thread. It would also be extremely useful to have some kind of note function so you could easily see when supply of a particular thread is running low ready for the next order.....

Needs organization

I so agree with other reviewers that the thread colors need to be listed by number, both in the Thread Color list and the Stashed list. There are so many colors that it takes forever to find what you're looking for, rendering the app ineffective. This could really be a useful app if it had some organization.

Disappointing

Store list is out of date. Addresses for stores are old & online stores are not listed.
Keeping a track of the colours in my stash is a great idea, but would be better if it had actual photos showing the colours of the thread.

Handy app, except...

PLEASE list the thread colors in numerical order on the product page. It's non-productive to have to sort through EVERY item to try to find the colors I'm trying to add to my 'stash' list. Otherwise, this would definitely be a five star app.

Disappointed

I stashed all of my threads, they disappeared! Please fix this. The app needs a sort feature on the thread colors, by number and color family would be nice. It would also be good to sort the stashed threads as well.

Still needs work

Has new feature to pick the colors you own, but needs ability to sort or search the list to be really useful. I’m not sure what order the colors are displayed in.

Colour Card Needed

Useful as far as it goes. A colour card listing colours and numbers would be useful. Content needs to be updated to show colours in designer kits and to add new kits.

Bit dated

I eagerly downloaded this app, but was extremely disappointed to find the articles dated 2006. Not happy.

Won't work

Unable to open most of the details pages as I get a server unavailable error. :-(

Freezes

Downloaded app. Opens to home page. When I try to open Products or any other page, I get a warning stating that I am not connected or it keeps "thinking". Won't open. Does the same thing on my iPhone. Tried delegating and downloading again. Didn't work. VERY disappointed.

Not functional

None of the functions work. I deleted it immediately. I wanted to use it to locate businesses in my area that sell Auriful thread. An error message presented said it was not available. This app needs bug fixes!

Wish list for future

I wish that there was a way to track my aurifil threads on this app. I would like some way of tracking them. Please consider adding some sort of check list with a way to star my favourites!

Extremely helpful locating Aurifil threads worldwide!
