Love this app!!!

I started doing Kumihimo with beads about 6 months ago. I’ve been wishing there was a an easier way I could design my own pieces. I bought this app last night, and I wish I hadn’t wasted so much time! It is SO easy to use. I m excited about all the possibilities!

Really nice basic app

This app works very well but would be really nice to see an update accommodate for larger string lengths like 24 and 32!!! Please update?!?

Not versatile

I had expectations for this app but was disappointed at the lack of versatility. Not worth the money - as apps go it is expensive! No acknowledgement that the technique of Kumihimo varies e.g. I learned bottom left to top but no facility to accommodate this variation. The pattern of the beads is affected by the order and technique. No idea of the strings being chosen so difficult to be consistent. No repeat pattern option. The manual is basic! Not even any FAQs..

Not Happy

Does any one know how I can retrieve my projects that disappeared from my app. I opened the app and sixteen of my saved designs were no longer there.

This is horrible!

If you are searching for a bead calculator this is NOT the one. I was shocked I had to manually touch every possible bead to highlight the color, then I still have no idea what the bead pattern ends up looking like. This is horrible and I was surprised this was not a function of the software. Please try the Excel Spreadsheet offered but Pacific Patina - it really worked like this one should have. I want my money back! Is there no guarantee?
