## What is Knots?

Knots brings your events, diary entries, and anniversaries together in one personal timeline. Keep the moments that shaped you close, from everyday thoughts to the days you never want to forget.

A TIMELINE FOR YOUR STORY
Add an event for a trip, a new beginning, or a small win. Write a diary entry on its own or link it to an event so the story continues in one place. Switch between all entries, events with their linked entries, and diaries.

WRITE WITH FEELING
Choose a mood, put your thoughts into words, and add photos. Give quiet days as much space as big milestones.

REMEMBER WHAT MATTERS
Save birthdays, anniversaries, and other important dates. Set reminders and see the days ahead or the time that has passed.

LOOK BACK, FIND YOUR WAY
Revisit memories with On This Day and browse your calendar. Use notebooks, tags, and search to find a moment when you need it.

Every day adds another thread to your story. Let Knots hold them together.

OPTIONAL MEMBERSHIP
Knots offers an annual auto-renewing membership and a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app before purchase. You can manage or cancel an annual subscription in your App Store account settings and restore purchases in the app.

### 5/5 — 非常好用简洁的app

*2025-02-01, version 2.18*

非常好用简洁的app

### 5/5 — 希望桌面组件更丰富

*2025-01-20, version 2.18*

作者的 apps 几乎都下载啦，也买了会员，很喜欢这种风格，千结记这种时间线的设计真的设计在我的心巴上！希望作者可以增加快速创建记录的小组件，目前只有纪念日倒数有点单薄哦！作者大大加油！！

### 5/5 — 太好用了

*2024-12-28, version 2.18*

真的很好用！！！都是免费的！！！很多选择可以用！真的强烈推荐！！！！！！

### 5/5 — 一句话+感想的设置很不错

*2024-07-28*

界面很舒服，希望能在纪念类的条目上加上记数，这样不用点进去就能看到，也就是倒数日的那种模式。

### 5/5 — 来说说吧

*2024-06-17*

刚下载，因为永久会员不贵所以直接就充了，觉得图标可以再加点可爱的，背景图可以加点纯色的因为那些花哨的我用着看不清字，颜色标记希望可以来个颜色盘，或者可以自己加代码，最重要的就是，希望能有账号登录选项，不然真的觉得没有什么安全感，要是卸载了再下载怕会员也没了，然后详情希望加个可以添加图片的选项，其他的目前没什么，如果有再来！

### 5/5 — 评论

*2024-06-15*

有时候修改某一事件的信息后会出现顺序反了，还得重新调整顺
序。尤其是在已经筛选标签的情况下，增加事件后，再取消标签
筛选，事件顺序和原来选择的不一样。另外感觉时间选择不是很方便，还是觉得有滚轮或者点击选择更方便，这个仅是个人看法
哈。因为我没有记录历史，只是自己的一些事情。可能不太需要太遥远的时间。或者可以增加选择是否要公元历，也是不错的。

### 1/5 — 天数不见了

*2024-01-22, version 2.15*

我只用它来看天数 怎么偏偏天数没了

### 5/5 — 负更新负更新负更新！

*2024-01-19, version 2.15*

新的主界面好丑啊啊啊啊！！！！

把之前的连起来的结还给我！！！！

还有想要一些更日常能用的图标！！

火锅啊烧烤啊泡图书馆啊野餐之类的！！
