My mistake. Yeah I have to favorite stuff on the website to actually see it in the app so it really doesn’t fit my actual needs. ### 1/5 — Read reviews first *2021-04-07, version 1.7* Really wish I had read the reviews first to find out I couldn’t even actually access the patterns on the app which was the whole reason why I wanted to download in the first place. Thought I had to pay money for that feature so I did... uhhh 😅 thanks for nothing then! This app is literally useless. There’s no reason to view favourites in an app without being able to then access the pattern. ### 1/5 — Rating is misleading *2020-12-13, version 1.7* I’m confused how this has a 4 star rating when all I’ve seen are mostly 1 star in the reviews. First, this app hasn’t been updated for 2 years. Second, Ravelry functions nicely in Safari and it is free. If this app seemed to function properly and smoothly, I’d consider paying a one time fee but a monthly or yearly fee for this service that is free in your browser, this just seems like a rip off. ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-02-09, version 1.7* Useless ### 1/5 — You have to pay once you are in the app *2019-10-15, version 1.7* I was so excited to finally have a revelry app that worked well, but turns out, this isn’t free and they don’t tell you until you download it and enter your information. Bait and switch. ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2019-10-08, version 1.7* It’s my fault I bought it without looking further into it. It has no value ### 1/5 — Scam *2019-09-28, version 1.7* Scam don’t waste your time and money ### 1/5 — Useless app - deleted *2019-09-19, version 1.7* Thought I could pull patterns nothing like that. Basically a wanna be social media app to post project updates. Can’t even view the patterns I favorited in the website. This is ridiculous and what’s the point of charging people for?!?! Scammers and false advertisement. ### 2/5 — Since I have been banned *2019-08-30, version 1.7* By that place that this app goes to I have no need to use it. It really was not much but a fast way to see my friends photos anyway. The place went to H E 🏒🏒 when they chose to ban and call any conservatives WS The site is now full of hate. So I will now be heading over to Fiberocity instead Make an app for that please ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2019-08-19, version 1.7* Nothing I was hoping for which was ability to use ravelery in a meaningful way. Plus so far have not found way to unsub from it made mistake of going add free ???!!! ## Frequently asked questions about Close Knit for Ravelry ### What does Close Knit for Ravelry do?
