The best craft app

I have been using this app for almost three years now (the free version) and have just bought the lifetime subscription because truly there is no better app for tracking my projects. Simple to use, no ads, just a really great app

So good with a couple fixes

This is my go-to crochet pattern manager, the multiple, configurable counters are fantastic and I love how you can move the highlight bat over what step you’re on. The only thing that really bothers me is that when switching from YarnBuddy to another app (if you’re doing multiple things), when you go back, it takes you to the homepage and closes your pattern instead of keeping that page open. It’s super annoying because you have to keep opening your pattern over and over again. PLEASE fix that! Less important but still great feature would be if you could import your stash from Ravelry.

Fantastic for Amigurumi

This app is absolutely fantastic for tracking projects and supplies. In particular, I use it for amigurumi makes, and it suits that use better than any other app I’ve come across. Also, the connectivity with the watch app means that there’s a synced stitch counter on your wrist, which is so incredibly useful. When I finish projects, I end up with a great history of my progress notes and special methods.

So so

I was quite disappointed with customer support as I NEVER received a response. I simply wanted to know if I could import my patterns from Ravelry.

Decent Row Counter

It does what you need it to, love being able to track repeating rows. I do wish there wasn’t syncing issues with the watch feature but I’ve done everything that has been recommended to try. I’ve had to just remove it from the watch because of the syncing/tracking issues, I’ll track on my watch do another row and somehow the count is back a couple rows or 0… which doesn’t help when I’m tracking rows. Makes me sad because the watch function was one of the features I was most excited to use.

Works fine on iPhone and iPad.
