### 3/5 — オリムパスも追加してほしい

*2026-02-26*

オリムパスの糸番号が出るようにしてほしいです。

### 4/5 — ペンが使えて便利です。

*2026-01-31*

ビーズ刺繍の図案で使いました。
ペンが使えるので便利に使えます！

### 3/5 — Pay for another app?!

*2025-12-30, version 2.60.4*

Ive had this app for many many years.  It really irritates me that I need to pay for ANOTHER app to have the updates.It was probably easier to create an entirely new app, but it would have been a nice gesture to allow, current paying customers, access to the app for free.

### 3/5 — マークが選べたらいいとおもう

*2025-09-25*

マークが記号(？)だけではなく、アルファベットや、数字が選べたらいいのに。
使い慣れるまで、もう少し時間がかかりそうですが、慣れたら便利だろうと思う。

### 4/5 — Great App

*2025-03-13*

This is a great app, just wish it displayed fraction stitches as solid quarter blocks not the lines and wish you could do bigger projects

### 4/5 — Overall good app

*2025-01-26*

I like having a design app for my ipad; it’s handy if I don’t feel like going to my pc to create something quickly. However, the developers left this app untouched and not updated for years and instead created a new app. I’m not buying a new version of the app after I’ve already paid for the original. They finally had a few minor updates about a year ago. The app isn’t always intuitive and the user’s guide isn’t always helpful but I will keep using it.

### 4/5 — いつもお世話になっています

*2024-11-23*

200色以上使った図案をPDFにしたとき色一覧が見切れてしまいます
次のページに表示されるように修正願います

### 2/5 — 使い方の説明が足りない

*2024-09-19*

トレーシング機能は良いのですが、数ミリずらせばピッタリハマるのに！という時も拡大や移動が出来ず、結局使えなかったです。
これなら安い方で良かったのかなぁと後悔。

### 4/5 — Indispensable

*2024-06-10, version 2.60.4*

Love this app for my tatreez work and I even use it for making fun pixel posters. It works great with my iPad pencil. Docking a star because it does not automatically save your work and I have lost many valuable design hours that way. Makes me feel like I am in high school again and have to constantly remind myself to save my work.

### 4/5 — Not quite 5 stars

*2024-05-19*

The app works well once you get the hang of it which can take some time but still has the odd small issue.

A notable issue is when downloading a black and white pdf of a cross stitch pattern the colour key shows no symbol for DMC310. I’m not sure if there’s a fix for this that I haven’t found yet but would appreciate somebody getting in contact to let me know a way around it. 

When you load the app there is an option to press a button to pay to download their upgraded app.. I paid the extra and hoped that the more expensive upgrade would fix the issues I had with this app. I regretted doing that as the newer app had even more issues unfortunately. Apple issue me a refund and I came running straight back to this version of the app instead.
Persevere and this app will become easy to use over time

### 5/5 — Cross stitch pattern maker

*2024-03-17, version 2.60.2*

Love the app, but please update the current DMC floss charts. It’s currently using some DMC floss that has been discontinued. Thanks

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2024-01-04*

Very good app, have been using it a long time. There are a few clitches, it’s a bit fiddly to delete lines and resizing is difficult. But on the whole really good to use and I would recommend to anyone.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-12-30*

As an app, it's got it's foibles, but does it the job I need it to.

### 1/5 — 訳分からん

*2025-09-07*

写真の登録は出来て図案も出来るのに刺繍糸の番号をどうやったら見られるのか訳分からんです
一度アンインストールして最近再インストールしたけど図案の刺繍糸の番号を見やすくして欲しい
全然優しくない

### 1/5 — Wish I didn’t purchase

*2025-07-06, version 2.60.4*

This does not take files only photos to “convert”. It does an awful job at this. After I purchased found out there was a newer version anyway. What a waste.

### 1/5 — IOS UPDATE 18.1

*2024-11-11, version 2.60.4*

Locks up

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2024-10-01*

Accidentally downloaded not realizing they had one for mobile, which is also not good. Tried to contact someone, to see if I can get a refund for my accident and for the fact I bought the mobile one anyways, seems I keep getting disconnected.

### 1/5 — F This

*2024-03-14, version 2.60.2*

I used to love this app, now it’s unusable.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2023-10-01*

It freezes all the time and when you open your document again, it’s all warped and you have to start all over. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Glitches Galore

*2023-09-17, version 2.56*

So many issues for an app that is intuitive and has a fast learning curve. Crashes and failing to do a function. Forget text or more than a few colors.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2022-11-04, version 2.56*

This thing is worthless, they need to hire some UX researchers badly. The “users manual” online is a joke, it only goes over updates, not actually how to use anything, add colors, etc.

### 1/5 — マニュアルが不親切

*2022-08-29*

クロスステッチ用にダウンロードしました。
レビューを読むと使いやすいという方も多いようですが、使い方は分からないし、刺繍糸の色番号自動割り当てじゃないんですか！？
今まで使っていた無料の図案作成アプリ（magic needle）が、細かい図案は有料（月額）になってしまったので、月額じゃないのと有名なKG softのスマホ版との事でこちらをダウンロードしましたが、残念です。

### 1/5 — Free apps work better than this

*2021-10-25*

Wooltasia and stitch wizard are free and create 10000 times better charts with way more definition. Very disappointed in this application.

### 5/5 — 便利！

*2026-03-26*

こぎん刺しにハーダンガーにも使えるのでとても便利

### 5/5 — Still learning, but Awesome!

*2026-03-17, version 2.60.4*

I’m new to the app and it definitely been a learning curve. I’m able to create a pattern but not sure in advance of what dimensions will be so I’m not sure how accurate my pattern is until I start beading it.  When I do start it’s very helpful for keeping to the pattern!

### 5/5 — I’ts the perfect app

*2026-01-26, version 2.60.4*

I love this app because it helps you a lot in what you’ll do.

### 5/5 — ずっと昔からあるアプリ

*2025-12-11*

今みたいにドット絵や手芸アプリがない頃からずーっと続いてるアプリです。
買って良かったです。

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-04-23, version 2.60.4*

Easy to use this app

### 5/5 — So useful

*2024-09-24, version 2.60.4*

I was using excel but this is so much better

### 5/5 — 便利に使えてます

*2024-06-12*

とても分かりやすい操作で使えて、役立っています。
PDFの書き出しも大きさ調整などが細かくできます。

### 5/5 — 嬉しい！

*2024-06-09*

今まで、クロスステッチのキットを買っていたのですが、ペットのお気に入りの写真でレシピを作ることができて、とても嬉しいです。

マス目に使う記号で『∴』や『∵』は、とても見にくいです。
糸の廃盤品も早く対応して欲しいです。

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2024-05-05*

I really like this app! It’s the best around to design in great detail.

### 5/5 — Perfect app for what I need

*2024-04-04*

This app works perfectly for my designs and frames. Ability to change canvas size to suit my pieces. Love seeing what can be created and so simple. Edits and adjustments are a beeeze. Thank you
