Pile hitch and tumble hitch are broken as of this post(3/14/16), they download but have no pictures. The rest of the app is wonderful, many of the knots are repeated but there in separate catagoris which is great. Thanks for a great app!
This is one of two knot apps I recommend who want to learn or expand their knot tying abilities. The pictures showing how to tie the knots are invaluable. Great for boaters, outdoor people such as hikers, and field workers.
I liked the app, but on the S7, the long press back button to bring up the menu doesn't work. Developers should fix this.
Animated knots is all this is. I loved this app on ios - this version is disappointing.
Needs an update for the s7. There is not option to download all or a favorite section.
Been using this for years. By far, my favorite knot app.
Doesn't download additional knots to android phone.
Easy to use with step by step illustration using different colored ropes. The only draw back is you have DL each knot when veiwing for the first time.
I like the app, I just wish they would combine the same knots with different names. Like the lark's head knot, cow hitch, and girth hitch for example. Three knot profiles, all the same knot.
Don't know if it's just my phone, but on decorative knots, the description is so long that I can't actually see the list of knots. Otherwise great app!
This is a damm good app. Especially if the knots are necessary, if Ur looking for a certain knot U came to the right place, The instructions R very easy to understand, & the pictures R great
This is a good app. But it doesn't have all the knots, stiches and so on. Other than that its a really good app.
Apparently doesn't work on my Galaxy Nexus, I'll hit the refund button now.
This is a greay app for whiling away the time or a guide for camping. You cant go wrong learning these. 😎
This app isn't as polished and doesn't have the great detailed descriptions included in the more expensive app, but it has all of the knots required for Scout - First Class. Recommended for scout leaders.
Pritty good, but I now have 504 images in my picture gallery, please fix for more stars
Had this on my iPhone,now moved to android and had to get this again... Great as a scout leader
Very useful app. Only problem is I had to buy twice. Had it on iPhone but could not get it on Android without buying again.
I'm an outdoors person and have downloaded all the knot apps. This is as good as it gets and for the right price!
Come on. I paid for the knots. Give them to me so I can survive without Internet!!! Please update!! Really it should only be max 50mb Five stars if you download knots to my phone.
Needed to download each knot individualy to be able to use offline.
This app has been useful on more than occasion. Keep the new knots coming.
Good clear instructions but doesn't fill the screen of my galaxy note
Well detailed picture and lots of knots
A patient teacher. Great that knots are available offline for download. Great favorites feature.
Other than that, two thumbs up.
Has stopped downloading completely, please fix
Very easy to use. Great photos.
The pile hitch and the tumble hitch are not showing any pictures of what they look like nor how to tie them.
