Needs a separate section just for needlepointers
Hello -
Can you pls create a template that uses “crosses” instead of cells? That would make it more like needlepoint. It can’t be that hard. Thanks.

Great app!
Such an easy app to navigate!
Pretty nice program but needs better help files
I really like this for making my own patterns but it’s sorely lacking in instructions, and a help community.
I was also hoping to use it to track my progress and it works buts it’s also lacking.

Great App
I've used it for several pieces now; very good color matching and thread colors to choose from, along with the ability to create custom colors and palettes for limited threads. Along with this, the pattern creation is smooth and clean, easy to alter as needed and great to work with while progressing through it. 10/10 and worth the purchase.

I love the app and I told my friends about it and I wish I can get more space more stitches in the canvas so I can beat some records. I wish I can have 999x999 for the grid for design , please can you do it ?
I love this app but there’s just one problem
I want to like this app but I’ve been searching for an app that will let me input a pattern that I’ve purchased on Etsy and then show me my color listing, I just purchased a big cross stitch and it has been hard to understand all the colors and symbols, I thought maybe this app would help, I did some research and google said it would do what I was wanting, in which in the demo it shows other patterns along with the dmc colors and symbols so I thought it would show me the colors and symbols when I input a pdf. I purchased the full app for the 39.99 in which I messed with this app for over an hour and it wouldn’t give me my color code as I thought it would. Unless I’m doing something wrong it sadly doesn’t do as I thought. This app looks great, I love how you can make customized ones along with it has some patterns within the app which I love but i was really hoping I’d be also able to use this app with my exported pdf patterns but sadly not. I’ve tried so many other apps and they need a subscription this is one of the only apps that seems to be great for the cross stitch community, I’ve also tried cross stitch saga which would work great but they only allow specific files and it’s a pain to even switch the file to what they accept. I’m just wanting this app will do what I’m wanting at some point, I feel like I’m not the only person who’s wanting this. Unless it does and it’s just user error even though I messed with this app for so long and couldn’t get it to work, which is so upsetting.

Great for drawing your own patterns
So far I’ve only tried drawing 2 patterns with this program, but I am loving it! I initially decided to try this program because of the one-time-fee pricing model (rather than a monthly or per-use charge). I like that there are palettes of colours built in for flosses like DMC and others. I find the program simple and intuitive to use and also like using the phone app as I kind of way to sketch ideas. For an idea on the price, I am in Canada and the charge was $100, but there was a discount as an incentive to purchase quickly so I only paid $40. It feels like great value for money.

Palette choices missing DNC solid option
I love the software, but I can't find any of the DMC threads that are in the palette choices. My stores only sell DMC solid, and that's not an option in the palette choices. I'd there a way to convert DMCVAR flood to DMC?
Best design app!
Best app I ever used to design cross stitch patterns! And they keep adding more and more features to it.
Highly recommend!!
Highly recommend!!
Could be better
Love the app and how easy it is to convert image into patterns. However, I wish the blending can be improved especially the high blending mode as it looks too grainy. Also, an option where you can select a specific area and change the color of a symbol only within that selected area, without affecting the same symbols or colors outside of it. KINDLY ADD ABILITY TO BLEND OR COMBINE FLOSS.

Wonderful app
This app is so helpful to make cross stitch patterns with. I find it quite easy to use and love the final product pdfs.
Dimensions need expanding
Overall this app works great. 3 star review is because needlepoint belts and bag straps are a popular product and cannot be designed in this app without breaking up the design and/or designing a repeating design since the dimensions allowed in app do not allow a size long enough for a belt/strap.
Not the best app out there
This app started out great, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that the developers are prioritizing printing functionality over actually developing the app into the powerful design tool it has the potential to be.
The extra steps that have been added just to save an image are completely unnecessary, especially when you’ve made it significantly easier to print directly from the app. It feels like basic functionality is being made more complicated while printing continues to receive update after update.
Honestly, how many people are actually using this app primarily to print? I would much rather see that development time go toward updated fonts, better design tools, a more intuitive user interface, and more advanced features—especially features that competing computer-based software already offers.
The app has so much potential, but it feels like the focus is in the wrong place. Instead of continuing to optimize printing, I’d love to see the developers focus on what this software could actually become if they prioritized the design experience and brought the app closer to its full potential.

I love it with one request
I really wish it would add an option for overlap stitches when exporting a pdf and the grid is broken up into multiple pages. I also wish it would save to the cloud so I could access patterns across devices. Otherwise it’s a nearly perfect app.
Best cross stitching app out there
AHHHHHHH, it’s genuinely so good
Folders
Good product for creating files but would love to see the ability to create folders. I don’t like having to scroll through so many of my patterns to find the one I need. It would be super helpful for me to have folders I can create by category
Needs some work..
I want to be able to track my progress but you can only do that by using the draw tool to mark off the stitches you've done. I'd love it more if you could just tap on the stitches and it would grey them out or something instead of having to draw a line.
I’m currently using printed patterns right now and drawing lines is how I currently keep track, so this app isn't an upgrade from that unfortunately.
I’m referring to a pdf pattern i've uploaded by the way, in case that for some reason makes any difference.

Love it!
I love this app it’s super useful and very versatile. I love that it has support for different devices. Being able to use it both on my laptop and phone is so handy! I just wish there was an option to select colours on a colour wheel. I find myself spending a lot of time trying to find the perfect colour. When importing an image into a pattern it preselects a thread colour to match. So, being able to have something similar with a colour selector would be fantastic! Also, adding a confirm paste option would be great. Right now every time I go to move part of my pattern, I have to undo it multiple times to get the placement perfect. Apart from this the app is amazing :)

love the app! Suggestions with pixel photos and tag system
I love the app. It’s amazing for making new designs and following designs I already made.
My issue is that photos that are already in pixel format are hard to line up and copy correctly. I have a bunch of pixel art I would love to turn into designs but it’s hard to do it with your automated pattern creator and I just end up doing it all by hand anyway. Which is annoying and time consuming when the pieces are big. I don’t know if there is a way to line up photo grid with your system that I am missing…
Also have you thought about making your tagging system when you can add bins or folders or drop down menus? My tags can get pretty long when I’m doing subsets of subsets. Ex piece has a turkey in it, so I tag it at: object - animal- bird - turkey. I don’t know if that’s just me and my love of categories though.

Fantastic App
This has been such an integral part of my cross stitch hobby. Being able to add patterns and import photos to be patterns has allowed me to expand the designs I want to create. I love the ability to keep track of what stitches you’ve completed as well as see what percentage you have finished on the project. My only wish is that you could either add pattern notes or be able to duplicate a colour for when you are doing multiple stitches (half stitch and full stitch) from the same colour. Highly highly recommend!
