But i have messaged through multiple channels question and no one has answered. Also Community needs more work. Hard to find others unless you already know them. Hopefully these are on the future roadmap. Otherwise I am loving the app creating a guide and then going through it. No longer do i need to worry about paper notes and getting them lost. My patterns for WIP’s are always with me digitally. **Developer response:** Hi Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! This is really helpful and so sorry that you have not received a response from us yet. We try our best to get back to everyone, it must have slipped through the cracks. Please do send another email or DM on instagram - I will get back to you immediately. So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 4/5 — Love this app! *2026-07-07* I wish there were a 4.5-star option because that’s what I’d give it. This app is a game changer and absolutely worth the subscription if you’re a serious knitter or crocheter. It turns PDF patterns into clear, focused steps and has helped me finish multiple projects this year. I also love that it syncs seamlessly between my iPhone and iPad. The developer actively listens to the community, and I’m excited to see where LooseLoop goes next. Thank you for improving the digital knitting experience! **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — So convenient!! *2026-07-06* I recently downloaded this app because its so hard to keep track of all of my projects and progress on paper. It’s so convenient and easy to use with tutorials on how to use the features in the app. Highly recommended! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 5/5 — Tellement pratique! *2026-07-06* Super application ! Tous les outils ont été bien pensés pour une lecture claire des guides! La création de guide avec les pdf est rapide et bien détaillée! Le service client est aussi super, on a pu me répondre vraiment rapidement pour un problème. En bref, une belle application pour garder des traces de ses projets ! ☺️ **Developer response:** C'est trop gentil! Merci! Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 5/5 — THE APP made for type A knitters *2026-07-06* I am in love with this app, I tried a classic row counter app and the toggle track app to record my Knitting time, but LooseLoop is better. The pattern pdf parser is such a game changer ! Follow instructions row by row, it’s easy and so simple. This app lightens the mental load, for real ! Read and understand a pattern is so simple with it. The Knitting guide looks like a quest line in a video games and so satisfying to complete each task. I love how the app enhances the stats : weekly, monthly and for wip wednesday. It motivates me and satisfies my ADHD brain who loves numbers ! If you don’t love numbers as I am, you can still use the app to help you follow the pattern and count your rows and stitches. I subscribed to unlock every functionnality and that’s worth it ! Give this app a chance and use the free trial to discover the Knitting guide from PDF parser, you Will love it ! **Developer response:** wow wow! Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — love it!! *2026-07-06* so easy to keep track and fun to see how much time you actually spend on knitting! and I love that there‘s constantly new features! **Developer response:** Danke! Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 5/5 — Top *2026-07-06* J’ai découvert cette application sur Instagram, et j’ai direct accroché vraiment super pratique pour se souvenir de tous les projets réalisés + pouvoir savoir combien de temps on a passer sur un projet et tous plein d’autre chose, Bref je recommande ☺️ **Developer response:** MERCII! this is so nice! Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 5/5 — Can’t live without it!!! *2026-07-06* The app is absolutely amazing, love it so much 🫶🏻 **Developer response:** yayy! so happy LooseLoop is your favourite! Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — Great app for tracking your knitting progress. *2026-07-06* It’s simple to use, beautifully structured, and really helpful for keeping an overview of different projects. I especially love how it makes the whole knitting process feel more organized and motivating **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 5/5 — User friendly & extremely helpful *2026-07-06* I absolutely LOVE LooseLoop! It is extremely user friendly and is a great way to track projects or create individual row counters (which you can have multiple at a time to count full rows, colorwork, AND repeats at the same time). My favorite feature has been the project guide creation. From the PDF of a pattern, LooseLoop will create a step by step guide to follow where you can track your project time, count rows, and see live how far you’ve progressed in your project by the percentage gauge. I would 110% recommend LooseLoop to any yarn user🧶 **Developer response:** WOW! Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 ### 2/5 — App doesn’t work properly *2026-06-18* I’m trying to set up the app on my iPhone 14 and unable to proceed past the social media settings. Very frustrating. Will try on my iPad tomorrow just disappointed glad I haven’t bought it **Developer response:** Hi there! So sorry to hear about this issue! We looked into iPhone 14 compatibility and it seems to be working! Perhaps the font size is too large? We hope you'll give it another go! Thank you!💙 ### 5/5 — Can’t live without this app! *2026-06-17* Genuinely the best knitting & crochet app I’ve ever tried! The team is so helpful and has been adding all suggestions & feedback SO rapidly! It’s made my projects so much more fun and I love to track all my profile stats, yarn, tools and patterns ! ✨🧶 **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for the lovely review! This means the world! Thank you🩷 ### 5/5 — Fast perfekt *2026-06-14* Mir hilft die App wirklich sehr bei Strickprojekte besser umzusetzen. Perfekt wäre es wenn es auch auf der sapper watch funktionieren würde. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you so so much! We will be adding this soon! ✨ ### 5/5 — It’s fantastic! but… *2026-05-24* Everything about this app is clear, modern and easy to navigate. I love it being a beginner knitter. It’s really helped me keep organised and also learn techniques that my patterns don’t show. I would love to see a battery keep function however, I have noticed it does tend to eat away at my battery. **Developer response:** Hii! Thank you so much for the lovely review! We are working on the battery issue - thank you so much for the feedback and support!💙 ### 2/5 — Too many Glitches *2026-05-13, version 1.1.19* I want to love this app, as it has so much potential but considering I am unable to load the pattern 8 times out of 10, makes it unusable. I would like to use an app that I am paying for. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Todo bugado. Full of bugs *2026-07-03* App bugado, come teu credito pra gerar o plano de projeto e fica horrivel. Fala q puxa do Ravelry mas nao puxa nada, so a foto do padrao. Tem q fazer tudo manual. Nem percam tempo baixando. **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your feedback! We are constantly fixing bugs and improving the app - I'm very sorry you had a bad experience. We do hope you'll give it another go now! Please contact us directly with specific bug reports, we always respond and fix them! Take care🩷 ### 1/5 — Leider unbrauchbar *2026-06-25* Ich wollte die App testen, habe meine Anleitung hochgeladen und die App hat eigentlich auch alles gut übernommen. Leider kann man aber keine Größen einstellen, es wird automatisch eine Größe eingestellt und dementsprechend die Maschenanzahl etc. angegeben - leider die falsche Größe. **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your feedback! We are constantly fixing bugs and improving the app - I'm very sorry you had a bad experience. We do hope you'll give it another go now! Please contact us directly with specific bug reports, we always respond and fix them! Take care🩷 ### 1/5 — boo ai *2026-06-07, version 1.1.19* why does an app like this need ai? so pointless and stupid ### 1/5 — AI Slop *2026-05-23* First, let's address the legal and ethical issue here: this app relies on users to upload patterns protected by copywrite law, essentially letting AI steal real human beings' hard work to do what? "Rewrite" already carefully written, edited, and tested patterns? Teach AI how to churn out AI slop pretending to be knitting/crochet patterns written by actual people? Moreover, the AI function itself is poorly programmed and instead introduces new errors into patterns that have already been checked for such errors prior to publishing. Save yourself and your wallet. Don't get this app. **Developer response:** thank you for raising this - it's something we care about deeply, so we want to address each point properly 💙 on copyright: nothing is taken from anyone. the smart pattern parser only works on a pattern YOU already own or purchased, and it stays fully private to you. there is no training on your uploads, and no data is ever sent back to any models. designers' work isn't collected, shared, or used to build anything - ever. on “rewriting”: the parser doesn't rewrite, generate, or alter a designer's pattern. it simply breaks the pattern you uploaded into clear, trackable steps so it's easier to follow row by row. the designer's actual instructions stay exactly as written. on designers more broadly: this craft and community were built by them, and we'll never use ai to replicate, replace, or profit off their work. it's why we built our own marketplace with 0% fees, so designers keep 100% of their revenue. on errors: if you ever spot a step that doesn't read correctly, please email us - we genuinely want to know and fix it, and your original pattern is always there untouched as the source of truth. LooseLoop exists to make crafting more accessible, never to take from it 🧶💙 ### 1/5 — Money grabber *2026-02-18* The app was really good before it was decided to charge for “smart parsing” allowing AI to create a pattern guide automatically. While the feature is great, you have to pay to use the app, now you need to pay even more to have credits to use this feature, which should be included in the subscription price… ### 1/5 — too much effort and bugs *2026-01-22* If you have a super simple pattern with 100 repeats - great. But as soon as pattern is a little more complex it takes hours entering details - only to then have the buggy app delete steps / change steps / change amounts entered = result unusable instructions. For a paid version there is too many bugs in the app itself and while nice looking it will not be usuable for complex patterns. Shame. ---- Update: the developer response "try it again - we will lock you in directly into subscription again just for you to figure out if the bugs still persist" - No. I spent two days getting into app, adding patterns to then have unusuable instructions because your app was buggy on release. For complex pattern there was no developer response. This is a PAID APP - these bugs were a dealbreaker and you lost the trust - especially at the price point. If hours are spent on the app - this is hours taken away from knitting. **Developer response:** Hi there thank you so much for the feedback! We have made 100s of updates fixing all these issues you have mentioned! We do hope you'll try the app again and improve your review! Truly appreciate the support ! 🧶 ### 1/5 — Not worth the subscription fee *2026-01-15, version 1.1.1* I don't see this fitting into my knitting flow as it stands- I have to manually input a pattern to use the app to follow it. As far as I know there's no integration with Ravelry, and there are still constant bugs. ### 1/5 — Not tested for larger text *2026-01-03* I would like to say I was able to get beyond the set-up stage. But I couldn’t. The app isn’t amenable to settings of larger text sizes for those of us with vision issues. Therefore the iOS pages do not scroll down to make choices for Skill levels & my ability to use the app ended on that page. Perhaps testing should include larger than 6 pt font? Just a thought. **Developer response:** Hi there! So sorry for this error - we are now fixing the onboarding pages to be adapted to larger text sizes! We are a very small team of 2 so have not had time to test for this specific edge case! We will fix this shortly so you have access to the app!⭐️ Thank you! ### 1/5 — Literally useless *2025-12-30* I am extremely confused with this app. I downloaded it, and yes, it looks cute, but you can't literally do anything because EVERYTHING is considered premium; minus downloading and creating an account. There's a 1 week trial period (which really is not helpful, unless you have unlimited time on your hands). This HAS to be a joke... **Developer response:** Hi there! We've heard your feedback and made some changes! With our latest update we have made the knowledge hub AND inc/dec calculator are now completely free to use. We hope you'll give our app another try—and if you enjoy the updates, we'd be so grateful if you considered updating your review. Thanks for helping us improve! ✨ ### 2/5 — Great in theory, alright in reality *2026-07-25* The features of this app are great, in the way they are intended. It doesn’t work very well if at all without WiFi, sometimes when you pause the timer and go to unpause it toggles straight back to paused and leaves useless 0m logs behind, and half the time the buttons for the row counter or pdf don’t show up until you reload the app 3 times. Unfortunately most of this started happening after I already paid for a year of it. It’s unfortunate because I love having my stash saved in here and saving info about projects so they don’t get left as endless WIPs when I forget where I left off. **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you so much for this honest feedback. We will look into these reported issues and get them fixed asap. Please don't hesitate to contact us directly with your specific issues so we can help you directly. I do hope that with the latest updates your experience will be better! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — LOVE this app *2026-08-10* As a beginner knitter, this app is so helpful with breaking down patterns and helping me keep up with where I am. It is super user friendly and aesthetically pleasing. The only downside is that it drains my battery so quickly and my phone is super hot when using it. I find I do need to take breaks to cool my phone down. ### 5/5 — wirklich empfehlenswert! *2026-07-27* Ich nutze die App mittlerweile seit Januar und bin wirklich begeistert. Egal ob man nur seine Reihen tracken will, oder die Übersicht bei komplexen Anleitungen bewahren will, die App ist genau richtig. Selbst wenn man sich keine Schritt für Schritt Anleitung erstellen lässt, kann man in den Projekten immer durch einen Klick in das zugehörige pdf gucken und den Überblick behalten. Durch die Möglichkeit seinen Ravelry Account zu verknüfen, spart man sich das doppelte eintragen seiner Projekte und seines Stashs. Außerdem sind die ganzen zusätzlichen Funktionen, wie der Zu-/Abnahmenrechner, das Glossar etc. wirklich praktisch. Auch wenn die Apps am Anfang einige Bucks hatte, ist sie mittlerweile wirklich empfehlenswert! **Developer response:** thank you SO much for your support and kind feedback! We will keep improving every day! 🩷 ### 5/5 — L’application INDISPENSABLE pour les tricoteurs !!! *2026-07-23* The Loose Loop est devenue indispensable dans mon quotidien de tricoteuse ! La fonction Guide est un véritable atout : elle accompagne chaque étape du projet et permet d’avancer sereinement, sans se demander où on en est. Quand on débute, compter les rangs et suivre un patron peut vite devenir compliqué. Avec cette application, c’est une vraie charge mentale en moins : impossible de perdre le fil ! J’adore aussi le compteur de temps, qui permet de voir le temps passé sur chaque ouvrage, ainsi que la gestion du stash, ultra pratique. L’application regorge de fonctionnalités pensées par et pour les tricoteurs. Depuis que je l’utilise, mon expérience du tricot a complètement changé. Je la recommande les yeux fermés ! **Developer response:** merciiii! This is so so nice to hear ! Thank you so much for this amazing feedback! SO happy you love the app! ### 5/5 — My latest knit/crochet essential *2026-07-22* I honestly can’t imagine trying to keep track of my stash/projects/patterns any other way! I am so happy I discovered the LooseLoop app and will never look back 🫶 **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — The best app for knitters *2026-07-21* I am a beginner knitter and find patterns so hard to understand and break down! This app has been a lifesaver for breaking down my patterns to the exact information I need and love being able to see my progress! Would highly recommend this app for any level of knitters and it such a great community. The app also has amazing tutorials if there is a section of your pattern you may not know! LOVEEE this app **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — Love this App *2026-07-17* Finding this App really fabulous to use . I've uploaded all my electronic patterns and find the auto build for the patterns really good! Have also discovered you can use a scanning app to scan your patterns and upload. The tips and hints and knitting terms and linked videos are invaluable. **Developer response:** Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — Génialissime *2026-07-09* Cette application est juste géniale, elle fonctionne super bien et je ne peux plus m’en passer pour tricoter. Je suis débutante et ça me permet de vraiment mieux appréhender mes patrons **Developer response:** Merciiii! Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — Fabulous App *2026-07-09* I’ve been using this app for sometime now and it’s really supports my knitting experience. I was always a pen and paper girl but this is made it’s so much easier ,I also love how you can store all your stash and see the progress of each make too ! . I’d also like to say the customer service is amazing with a quick and friendly response x **Developer response:** I'm so happy to hear this! Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — The App we’ve always wanted *2026-07-07* As a new knitter, I found the knitting patterns overwhelming and to easy to make mistakes when following. I tried the printing out and highlighting and notes and stitch markers, I did it all but I still emended up forgetting where I was or what the next stitch meant. Finally this app does it all for me, it keeps me on track, no more crazy notes everywhere and my projects actually turn out the way they are supposed to. This app gives me the confidence and clearing I desperately needed when reading knitting patterns. I’m so impressed by the team who built this and I’m forever grateful for making me feel like a more confident knitter **Developer response:** YAY! SO fabulous! Thank you so so much for your kind feedback! So grateful for your support!🩷 ### 5/5 — Best knitting app ever *2026-07-07* This app is amazing for knitting! It helps me recognise how much time i spend knitting and helps me follow patterns and leave notes for myself. I can also track my progress. I love it so much and 100% recommend! **Developer response:** YOU ARE SO KIND! Thank you so much for the feedback - we really appreciate your support! 🩷 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
