App wasn’t great to start with now barely usable
Actually came back and dropped a star because of the ridiculous response from the developer. We all get that it’s ad based, I wasn’t complaining about that. I was complaining that the ads are screening up the UI AND UX enough so that I’d rather just use the web version of Ravelry. Ugh.
Like others I’m having issues with the ads. The app already had some struggles from the layout and the UI, but the new problem is video ads are now taking over my entire screen and I can’t get out of them without restarting the app. Same thing with accessing the PDFs and other options that pop up at the bottom of the screen, covered by apps. I get it you want to make money but this is ridiculous. I was using this to gauge my interest in the $4.99 version and frankly I’ll be looking for something else based on this experience.

Thanks for your feedback. The free version is indeed ad-based. You may get support in our forum https://www.ravelry.com/groups/stash2go
Extremely annoying ads
I mostly use this app to for the row counter. I also search for patterns and upload photos to projects. These functions all work well, except for the loud video ads that play unexpectedly, and don’t have a way to mute or close them because the X is obscured. Sometimes this means I can’t get back into the patterns and have to close and reopen the app to start over. The ads have woken up kids because of this stupid app, which means cranky family and less sleep for me.

Good, but...
Crashes more often than any other app that I use, but still the best interface for Ravelry available. The option to add a needle size to your own project is deeply flawed. There is no button to say you’re done, whether you choose a needle size or not. I had to re-start my phone to escape that dialogue.

Freezes CONSTANTLY
The only reason I didn’t rate 1 star is because I really rely on it for patterns. But I’ve literally spent hours with it crashing over and over, having to close the app every time I add a new filter on my pattern searches. It simply needs to be worked on, or there needs to be an alternative app to create some healthy competition. Please please fix these glitches, please. It’s a good resource for our knitting community, but whoever programmed it needs to get their act together

Should be called ‘Crash to Go Lite’
I am trying to use this to find some cute baby patterns as it looks like I may be getting two new grand babies in the next couple of years. However, it just freezes up or gives me a network error. I have no problem with other programs, but this one may be so ad intensive that it won’t run with my ad blocking hardware/software, raspberry pie. I will be looking elsewhere.
