Want to add

That I like the app enough I’d be willing to pay for an ad-free version. The ads kill my phone battery & if I use it while my phone is plugged into the charger the ads don’t let the battery charge.

There is nothing on the screen

I used to use this app a while ago. I just opened it and there is nothing here. I started a new project and there is nothing but a white screen

Everything gone!

I opened the app after several months and ALL of my projects were GONE! I’m SO upset as I have many projects going at once & use my counters as reference for other projects of the same caliber.

I noticed many other reviewers have experienced the same thing and had no luck in reaching out to the developer.

PLEASE FIX THIS! Until then, looks like I will be going back to manual counters!

Almost perfect

The app works great for me. I love the way you can set up multiple counters and link them together, as well as set max rows.

The only reason this gets 3 instead of 5 stars is there’s no way to back up or archive projects.

From looking through the negative reviews, seems like I wasn’t the only one to lose a ton of work about a year ago. I had about two years of projects wiped out. The rest of the counter works so well, I’ve kept it but even being able to email an xml file (or other format) to myself to reload later would make it perfect.

Update deleted my projects

The most recent app update deleted all the projects I had in the app and there is no way to contact the developer for support.

Ok

It’s a decent app, good functionality. Just make sure you have a hard copy back up of your project info somewhere; I’ve lost several projects to updates. As there’s no sign in feature or cloud backups, there’s no way to retrieve lost data. If you don’t mind that, then it’s a great app. I haven’t lost anything super important so far, but the losses were still pretty inconvenient. Took me two days to figure out where I left off on a sweater I had been working on, and put down for a little too long, after I realized that all the project info was gone.

Was great...until I updated and everything vanished

I absolutely loved this app...until I updated it last week when I realized that I was a bit behind on doing so (note: the most recent update was three months ago). Today was the first time I opened the app again after doing the update and absolutely everything had been wiped. All of my projects from the last few years, notes on those projects, everything.

I went to contact app support to see if this was just a glitch and if anything could be done to retrieve the info, but the link to contact the developer leads to a defunct placeholder page.

I would recommend not using this app if you’re planning on using it to keep track of multiple WIPs that you’re taking a while to complete, especially since there’s not a good way to get in touch with support for this app. I now have several projects that I’m going to have to rip out and completely restart because it’s been months since I worked on them and I’m not sure where I left off on them. I also have several projects that I was developing and have now lost all notes on.

Great app

I’ve been using this app for a few years now. It does a great job keeping track of multiple projects. I love being able to link counters to other counters in keeping track of pattern repeats since I have to leave my projects for long periods of time and always know where I am at when I pick it back up. My only issue, would love a paid version to get rid of ads. They drain my phone battery.

Grrr

It was great until the last software update. I had about 10 projects saved, everything is GONE! Very unhappy, it's going to take so long to try and remember and figure out where I have left off, not to mention increases and repeats. Sad panda.

Don’t use this app!!

It’s all fun and games, until you do an update I lost all my projects. This has happened more than once!! I was only using this app so now I’m going to have to try to figure out what row I’m on a huge lace work shawl!!!

Don’t risk it

I used to like this app despite the problems with counters rearranging randomly. The ability to link counters and set the increment was great. But the last update deleted all my projects and despite reaching out to the developer, two weeks later there seems to be no hope of getting them back. The prospect of figuring out what row I’m on for several of the more complicated projects is daunting.

Also there’s a new bug. You can’t link more than one counter anymore.

Lost my work

I’m not sure what happened, but when I opened up my app, my project was gone. Now I’m not sure where I am in my work. It’s really upsetting! I’ll be looking for a different (and hopefully more reliable) stitch counter.

Lost all my projects

I loved this app until I opened it today and all my projects are gone! I’ve lost my place on two different projects I was working on. It will take me many attempts and hours to figure out which row of a 16 row repeat I ended on. Very upsetting. When I click on the help link-the page can’t be found-am I totally out of luck???

Everything is gone

Went to open the app to finish a project I’ve been working on for over a year and all of my data is now gone. I don’t remember where I am and this project was huge.

Most recent update deleted ALL projects

I have loved this app for so long but the last update seems to have deleted the DOZENS of projects I’d been tracking, and had tracked personalized/altered patterns. Severely disappointed.

Everything was deleted

With this most recent update... all of my projects were deleted. Everything is gone so now I don’t know which row I’m on nor how each row was supposed to go. I’m not amused and I want this fixed now.

Was good

This was perfect, until a recent update deleted everything. All of the projects I was working on, all of the work I was keeping track of, completely lost.

It’s all gone

I have been using the app for a while and it has been critical to me when I’ve returned to hibernating projects (of which I have quite a few... who doesn’t??). So, this AM I wanted to pick back up on a rather complicated shawl pattern.... Buuuuuut, Stitch Counter has deleted ALL of my projects. ALL OF THEM. They’re gone. That’s completely unacceptable. Done with it.
PS: I’d give zero stars if it were possible.

Update deleted project data

An emergency update was pushed out to fix crashing issues and it deleted all of my projects. Very unhappy.

Lost everything with recent update

I’ve loved this app since initial download. I use it to track multiple WIPs. But the last update erased all of my data and there’s no way to contact the developer. I’m going to move onto something else, unfortunately, because I can’t imagine trying to rebuild on this one, knowing it could happen again.
