Bought to support, doesn’t have everything the website does
I primarily use Ian’s stuff for work boots. This app is all sneakers except for “riding boots”
I don’t really know a tradesman wearing riding boots to work
Kinda upset I spent money on this

Disappointed!
Website is way better. No step-by-step directions on how to tie each different lacing style. I guess I probably owe Ian $2 for my use of his website. Was hoping the app would be a good experience. Unless I’m missing something, stick to his website—it is a better teacher and far more user friendly. (unless you’d like to donate $2 to his cause)

Amazing site, great app
So excited to discover Ian’s amazingly helpful site has an app! Useful and fun.
Love this app!!
I’ve known about Ian’s web site for several years now, and have always enjoyed wandering around on it. Was surprised to find this app and payed the $1.99 to down load it. I’m writing this review as speculation about the Mueller investigation runs rampant (fall of 2018). This app is a nice diversion. Entertaining and informative [if you’re into tying shoes ;)]

Excellent lace and knot app!
Lovingly compiled by a true shoelace expert, this collection of lacings and knots is full of "must try" ideas. The "how to" parts are perfectly clear like the best knot apps, and the "create-a-lace" is the fastest way to try out your ideas.
Latest update is a step back
I like this app. It does a good job of showing you how to lace with clear directions.
I downgraded my rating because the latest update shows a summary of all laces on real shoes. Previously they were drawings of the laces. This change seems like a good idea but makes it very difficult to compare different lacing styles when deciding which one to use.
Also, the lacing instructions are in a much smaller popup window instead of taking up the full screen.
If you're looking for a lacing app though, this is a great one.

Amazing and fun!
Lacing just got serious! Don’t expect anyone to take you seriously unless your shoes are laced with a dash of creativity! This has everything, from the sublime to the simple when it comes to lacing.
Super easy to use app with hundreds of lacing options, and the diagram to lace is so easy to use.
Essential for anyone who owns Converse as well.

My boots will never be the same!
This is a well designed and thought-out app that has loads of different lacing and tying methods.
I use a combination of the 'twistie lacing', 'lock lacing' and 'Ian's secure shoelace knot' to keep my work-boots snug and secure. The descriptions are nice and the ability to switch between a picture and an illustration is really useful.
Also, I really like that there is an email link in the app: I emailed the dev and he emailed back the same day!
5/5!

Awesome app.
This app is great it gives me different ways to tie my laces so I can be different in my group of friends. It also gives you the added benefit of being able to teach children to tie their shoelaces quick and easy. Thank you Ian.
Great app, c-a-l is a flop though
Great list of lacing methods and knots.The favorites and wall of laces are good features. Animated steps for the knots are helpful also. Frankly the create-a-lace feature is a joke and the app would be better without it as it is now. I don't mind the price because I like Ian's website so maybe I'm helping support it but others may not like it

Teacher
I can't use this to teach my 4-5 old students how to tie their shoes. Lost my money.
Trendy!
I'll probably be setting a new trend with my snazzy shoe knots!
Their is one thing
Their is one thing I didn't like about this app it is about the make your own lace
You can only passe the lace thought the eyeholes once therefor you can only make simple designs

Surprisingly fun!
I never thought that learning different lacing styles would be fun, let alone informative, I was wrong. Thanks to my wife for buying me the app! Great app, Ian!
At last!
At last at 49 I'm learning how to tie my shoelaces properly and I'm beginning to believe in the utility of the Internet as a result.
Just downloaded the app and using it but for an update it might be handy to think of a way of reversing the diagrams for both left- and right-handed knot-tying.

Great app
Finally I can keep my boat shoes tied! Thanks Ian!
I will now also be able to learn many more ways to tie my shoes. I bought the iPad app, great graphics with easy to follow directions

Wow.
OK well this is the BEST and only good app for lacing. PERIOD. I mean all my friends have the bar lace and I had no idea how to do it. But now I can do it and many more!!!! I mean this app helped my kid learn how to tie his shoes!!!! I mean I couldn't teach my kid how to tie his shoes for NINE YEARS. NINE YEARS!!! After downloading this app my child learnt how to tie in ONE AND A HALF HOURS!!!!
If you can't get your kid to tie.
STOP READING THIS REVIEW RIGHT NOW! AND BUY THE APP!!!!

I love this app but they should put a thing where you can save the shoelaces you create in-app and show how you did it. They should also put a search where you can search the laces. And when you ate making your own laces you should be able to put two laces in one hole.
