Artisly

You have a bag of yarn. And a half-sewn jacket. And three "almost done" projects. The average crafter has 7–12 unfinished projects. And the pile keeps growing. Artisly helps you log every project, track your materials, and get AI ideas for what to make next — so you can finally start finishing things. 【What Changes When You Track Your Crafts】 • Know exactly what projects you have in progress • Never lose a pattern, material, or technique note again • Get AI suggestions based on what you actually have • Build a portfolio of your finished work you're proud of 【Everything in One Place】 - Craft Journal — Log projects with photos, categories, and dates - AI Project Ideas — Smart suggestions based on your materials - Materials Tracker — Know what you have before buying more - Progress Notes — Keep technique tips and pattern details in one place - Finished Works Gallery — Your craft portfolio, beautifully organized "I keep buying yarn and fabric but never actually use it — and the guilt is real." — Artisly's materials tracker turns your stash into a list of possibilities. Before buying more, AI shows you what you can already make with what you have. "I've spent more on craft supplies than I want to admit. I don't want to see the total." — Artisly's cost tracker adds it up per project, not per stash. Knowing what a finished piece actually cost you — before you price it or gift it — is different from knowing what your stash is worth. You can look when it's useful, not when it's overwhelming. "Will I actually finish more projects?" — Tracking what you have and where you left off is the first step. Most crafters who log their WIPs finish 2x more projects. "Every craft app I've found only works for one type — knitting apps don't help with sewing." — Artisly works for any craft. Knitting, crochet, sewing, embroidery, macramé — each project gets its own category. No need for three separate apps. "Do I need to pay?" — Logging projects and AI ideas are free. Premium adds more. Price shown before you commit. 【Premium Plan】 See in-app for pricing. Subscription auto-renews unless canceled 24 hours before renewal.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: SewSure at none against Artisly's shown. SewSure also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Artisly's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
