Turno, Taskbird, etc) where the tutor sets his availability and you as a student simply choose from those times—instead of the back and forth negotiations of “what times are best for you” every time you need a session. ### 4/5 — No landscape mode *2025-03-06, version 5.28.0* Pls just landscape mode it can’t be that hard ### 4/5 — great idea- needs technical help *2025-02-14* super smart idea, and definitely can go far!! the app and website have so many technical issues though, where tutors don’t get paid out unless reaching out to support for approved hours + the app constantly glitches (for instance i have a student who only sees requests she sends but nothing i send) messages won’t show up unless you click to open the chat (ie no notification on the homepage). small glitches, just means you have to be more on top of your work. also confused on why there is an hourly limit for post grad tutors, since the reasoning given is that the max hours is what students should be working in a school week. ### 4/5 — good but some tweaks *2024-10-31, version 5.12.0* it says that it won’t tell your tutor what you do or say (on the review after) but it does. so be careful what you put! ### 5/5 — Great Platform *2024-10-13* Customer service is amazing. The tutors are very good. I wish they allowed more hours per week but other than that, Knack is very good. ### 5/5 — Impeccable *2024-09-25, version 5.10.0* Very accessible‼️ ### 5/5 — love!! so easy to use!! *2024-09-07, version 5.7.0* love your app usually, but it is currently glitching, and i need someone to fix this immediately ;—; but seriously i love this app so much!!!!!!! <3 ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-08-21, version 5.5.0* I love this app, it makes it easy to find tutors! ### 5/5 — Knack *2024-05-02, version 4.18.0* Phenomenal app ### 5/5 — Great training and tutoring service! *2024-04-16, version 4.16.0* Great stuff ### 5/5 — Excellent as always *2024-03-14* Sharyn has been a game changer for me.

Everyone that I know that uses it does not like how buggy it is ### 1/5 — Poorly Designed *2020-07-10, version 1.39.0* Poorly designed application that is difficult to navigate.

Used to be good but now there is on one managing the app and the tutors are like Instagram models with very low teaching skills! Wasted my time and money ### 1/5 — Waste of time! *2017-12-08, version 1.6.1* They have no tutors and the few ones listed don’t even respond when contacted or they don’t honor scheduled sessions ### 2/5 — knack *2023-11-05, version 3.14.0* the app is so glitchy it needs major updating ### 2/5 — Keeps Crashing *2019-06-04, version 1.17.0* My knack app keeps crashing every time I click “view and edit profile.” ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best resource on campus *2026-04-16* Yeup nothing comes close, I’ve gotten help from so many tutors for years now.

I was struggling so much and thought I had no help. Now? I tutor for that exact class and have a 5 star overall review for more than 50 sessions this semester and I can only thank God and knack for being so easy to apply for. ### 5/5 — Would highly recommend! *2025-05-20* I love Knack tutoring! The app itself is really easy to use and the concept is great. I love that I could meet new people while also getting tutored by a fellow student.
