PREVIOUS VERSION REVIEWS:
5 stars - The Coolest Ever!
Easy to understand and use, very informative with clear instructions on how to makes hundreds of knots step by step, divided by categories for easy navigation, truly inspiring and beautiful knots. Enjoyable to just watch, practical and relevant to learn. This is the second App enticing enough for me to actually buy.
5 stars - New to knots
This is my first review. I would pay twice the amount for this app. I would give it ten stars if I could. It can be done step by step unlike others I've seem that you have replay a dozen times to get the same results. Thank you for you time and effort.

This is my favourite knot app, and I have nearly all of them. You can move slowly through the steps, reverse, and reverse the view. You can very easily search by type of knot Or your activity. The information is thorough and informative- not silly and cheeky. It is important to understand a knot fully, to chose the right knot, and this app is perfect for that.

Poor value

To charge £3.99 for both iPad and iPhone versions is unacceptable.

Version 3.0
Nicely presented with clear photos and touch controls (swipe).
Could do with the option for landscape orientation. Also should have been updated to be universal and have not been greedy for a double fee for an iPad compatible app.

Thank you for yet more knots

I've had this app for a while now and I have used it extensively, especially for camping. My favourite is still the beautiful Alpine Butterfly Loop, which I can thank Grog Knots for introducing me to. I thoroughly recommend this app to anyone, from a novice to expert user of knots. Or even if you are just a knot geek who likes looking at knots. Ahem.

Great app, definitely the best knot app that I have come across and I have a lot (knots 3d,what knot to do, amongst a couple of others)! The amount of knots, simplicity of instructions and vast amounts of information on each knot combined with a nice interface make this well worth the money! Wish I had found it sooner

Great!

In the end, no more instructive than static pictures. But animation is a nice touch and pictures are very clear

Useful App. Content and info could be greater but a good resource

As mentioned by other reviewers, for the price you would expect a greater array of knots. Similarly there is little to no information regarding when to use or not to use a certain knot, pro's and con's etc. Never the less a great little app. to reference if you forget a certain knot and want a quick reminder or simply to learn a knot from scratch then this is the best app. I've seen and if you're like me you are more likely to have your iPod with you than a knot book when standing at the base of a tall tree that needs climbing or a boat that needs to be secured, then I guess this is for you...

Good App let down by price

This is a great app for me as an Angler.
The user interface is crisp, clean and very easy to use. The favourites facility making access to the knots you need a breeze.
The animations are super clear and easy to understand, with great text description underneath.
The only qualm is the price. At £2.99 this is a little steep for the content currently provided. £1.99 would have been a fairer price I imagine.
But all in all a great app!

Not bad

App works well with very user friendly interface. Was s little disappointed with the content given the price tag of £2.99. Maybe an update will see us with a few extras, maybe a few small projects.

This is the best app of its type that I've found. With over a hundred knots in different categories, I doubt whether there are many left! The animations are slick and the highlighting of text describing the animation is really clever. I'll even be able to sort out my bow tie next time!

Animated knots, just 'knot (deal with the pun ok)enough knots!'

Very clear and easy to follow instructions with good, dare I say basic, list of knots..I just feel AND HOPE that the guys behind the software will add to the list with a few more useful additions eg some slip knots and quick release hitches for us happy campers! And the scouting folks. £2.99 price tag a little steep given the lack of 'extra knots' but all in all a very useful bit of kit.
