### 1/5 — Uses AI Art

*2026-08-03, version 2.4.0*

An app made for artists using AI art :-( lazy and hypocritical

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-02, version 2.3.5*

I use this app almost every day, and while it’s no substitution for the desktop app, it’s a fantastic option to find patterns and keep up with friends and other knitters!

### 5/5 — one suggestion

*2026-06-15, version 2.3.1*

amazing app! just wish there was a way to keep track of time and sessions

### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2026-06-08, version 2.3.1*

Love this app! If you use Ravelry or want patterns for knitting/crocheting this is it! The UX design is great! It so easy to search different patterns and yarns and favorite things I want to circle back to. They update it all the time too and are constantly improving it. I love it.

### 3/5 — Way too many ads now

*2026-06-06, version 2.3.0*

I love to scroll on this app when I have my social media bricked. I used to use it a ton a couple months ago and the ads were totally tolerable. I’d expect one after I viewed a pattern I’d bought and then some other random ones. But now in the span of 10 minutes i’ll get 3 or 4 ads when I’m just browsing. It’s making me was to spend a lot less time on it. Please change this back to the way it was.

### 2/5 — If you ask me for a review one more time

*2026-06-04, version 2.3.0*

It’s one star.

### 5/5 — Totally worth it, my favourite tool as a new knitter

*2026-05-29, version 2.3.0*

I’ve been using kntd for about three months now and didn’t think to review until today with the newest update. It’s amazing, I wouldn’t use Ravelry nearly as much as I do without it and I’ll only use the website to buy the patterns these days. I love scrolling and liking patterns à la Pinterest and use all of the tools everyday. It’s an awesome complement to Ravelry.

### 4/5 — So helpful

*2026-05-26, version 2.2.1*

I love this app. My only complaint is the recent annoying ads the pop up from horrible games.

### 5/5 — Easy to use for beginners

*2026-05-21, version 2.2.1*

Came across this app recommended in a fb group and it was not talked about much and not people use it and I don’t know because as a beginner it’s a lifesaver and keeps me on top of my WIPS

### 5/5 — I love genuine patterns!!

*2026-05-17, version 2.2.1*

This is a direct link to Ravalry. There is no AI slop there. I swear by this app and the Ravelry website.
