Hello CrossStitch vs Stitch Reader

Hello CrossStitch keeps your cross-stitch projects moving — one stitch at a time. Follow your chart right on your iPhone/iPad, mark cells as you stitch, and watch your finished piece slowly appear. STITCH FROM YOUR OWN PDF CHARTS • Import PDF charts purchased from Heaven And Earth Designs (HAED), Artecy Cross Stitch, Golden Kite or Zanna Cross Stitch, and see the exact symbols from the printed chart • Multi-page charts join into one seamless pattern • More chart publishers are being added — write to us with the ones you use TURN PHOTOS INTO PATTERNS • Create a cross-stitch pattern from any photo in seconds • Every color is a real DMC floss you can buy • Choose the size (up to 900 stitches wide) and number of colors • Blend two flosses in one needle to reach the shades in between — more colors without buying more thread. Dithering and vivid color get you closer still WATCH YOUR PROGRESS BLOOM • Your picture emerges on the progress screen as you stitch • Progress %, stitches today, weekly stats and personal records • An estimated finish date that updates as you go • Timelapse: replay your project stitch by stitch and watch the picture appear MADE FOR SERIOUS STITCHING • Symbol highlight: light up every cell of the color you're working on • Jump to the next unstitched square of that color — work one thread from start to finish without hunting for what's left • Parking: mark the cells where you parked your thread, so you always know where to pick up • Zoom from a single cell all the way out to the whole design AND MORE • Back up your progress and restore it on a new device — backup files hold your progress only, never the chart itself • Diagonal and zigzag guide grids help you keep your place • Thread list shows remaining stitches for every DMC color • Thread usage: how many stitches each DMC color needs and how many skeins to buy, from your fabric count and strands • Started your project before getting the app?
