"This is probably the best program I have ever used for beading and I’ve been doing this for over 20 years. Thank you for coming into my life" - By Tennah W on the App Store

"I have been searching for years for something like this that works on the iPad. Very similar to software that I have for Windows, but with the portability and convenience of iOS. No regrets so far on taking the plunge and unlocking. Thank You So Much For Making This !" - By Visionhorse on the App Store

"This is a great tool for beading design. It is intuitive and easy to use. I like the complete list of Myuki Delica colors to choose from to create custom color palettes for projects. I like to tinker with patterns and the last few designs I could not have done without this tool to help to visualize the result. There are a lot more features that I still need to explore but one of my other favorites is the ‘duplicate’ option that I use to easily copy my designs for creating pattern variations. This is definitely a winner!" - By devaah on the App Store

### 3/5 — Battery drain issue

*2026-08-13*

Great app but to the developer, please check for a memory leak or some other nefarious background activity because this app just destroys the battery on the iPad

**Developer response:** This issue has been resolved in the latest version of Loomerly. We're sorry for any inconvenience caused. Thank you :)

### 5/5 — Versatile and easy to use

*2026-08-03*

I tried paper designs when I first started beading, but quickly realized an app was going to make my life much easier and beading more fun. I liked being able to try out all of the features before committing, but haven’t looked back since investing in this invaluable tool. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, we're really glad you're enjoying the app :)

### 5/5 — Love it! Worth it!

*2026-07-18*

Really love this app. It’s very well designed and pretty intuitive. They thought of everything though I do wish one of the templates had the three-section triangle shape (adjustable for size) as are commonly done with the peyote stitch. Just shape options in general would be really cool for making patterns for more geometric beading (ex: 3D stars, kaleidoscopes—both done with peyote). Still, great app and so worth it!

### 4/5 — Super easy to use

*2026-07-16*

I have enjoyed using this app for about a year or more. It’s super easy to use. I also love that I can add in the beads that I own, which helps keep track, as well as add in color palettes I come across. Still learning the more advanced features but it’s a great app. I would ,however, like to see the addition of herringbone as an option maybe in the future. All in all a great app.

### 5/5 — So much fun

*2026-07-05*

I love this. So enjoyable to design designs and change them.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, we're really glad you're enjoying the app :)

### 5/5 — Best option

*2026-07-01*

I’ve used probably all the beading software programs and this is definitely the best and the most up-to-date. It’s also not run by a Russian company that pretends to have a US address.

My big issues are that although you can exchange one color for another, you can’t switch two colors with each other. Also, they don’t have Toho Aiko, which is a pretty big problem for me because I send a number of clients the design for approval and create about 90% in Toho Aiko. Some of the Toho colors are pretty far off from the actual color. In addition to getting those Aiko colors, it would be nice to be able to just have a CMYK option to create your own color.

There’s a few bugs when you export it, especially around the line breaks. I spend almost an hour in the time to export it in PDF, then do a find and replace in the word chart because I like changing it to my own shorthand for the colors as well as giving them an actual color in that chart. Plus, I like to add cell borders around each row.

These are not insurmountable issues, and it really is a nice piece of software. I think the other programs had many of the same problems and were incredibly unstable, although the exporting process was better. I have no hesitancy recommending loomerly wholeheartedly to anyone looking.

### 5/5 — Einfach zu bedienen

*2026-06-23*

Ein super Programm, das die Arbeit sehr erleichtert! 
Sehr durchdacht, kann ich nur empfehlen!

### 5/5 — Bonne application

*2026-06-19*

Bien pensé, pratique, très agréable et facile à utiliser

### 4/5 — Good app but needs sync

*2026-06-07*

The app is good and it’s a helpful way of designing bead patterns. But we really need iCloud sync between devices rather than having to send backup files manually to do it. I also echo the point about editing the size of a pattern - yes I know you can do it but you shouldn’t have to exit out of the editing mode to change it and then go back into the pattern. Also it would be helpful if you could rotate the view without rotating the pattern. I often find I need to physically rotate the device or lie and say I’m doing brick stitch so I can see the pattern the way it works for my brain. Also the Home Screen sort order doesn’t stick - it will change to most recently created even though I keep setting it to A-Z. And it will sometimes show zoomed in sections rather than the full pattern with a little space around the edge. 

Basically I like the app but everything feels like it needs more clicks than it should eg to edit a pattern you enter it then press hamburger then edit then edit pattern. Just give us a shortcut to edit on that front page.

### 5/5 — Gute App

*2026-04-22*

Die App gefällt mir sehr und ich habe mir die Vollversion gekauft. Ich brauche aber dringend eine größere Fläche für meine Muster. Ich nutze die App nicht nur um Armbänder zu gestalten. Derzeit plane ich eine große Stickerei für ein american native Dress. Es wäre daher super wenn die Möglichkeit besteht in der App die Größe der Fläche dementsprechend anpassen zu können. Derzeit bekomme ich nicht mal die Hälfte des Musters in die Planung wobei der Bereich nur die eine Schulter und den Teil vom Rücken zeigt. Der vordere Teil passt nicht mehr in die Fläche. Ganz zu schweigen vom gesamten Schulter Bereich mit dem dazugehörigen Rücken und Brustbereich.
