Contact My Row Counter Knit Crochet Support

by SamzillaTheBun

I got this app solely for using the tow counter on my Apple Watch. I found it annoying that to even use that feature, I have to subscribe to the app. Fine, I’ll support a developer, no big deal I guess. But the Watch app is… Not great. The app only stays active on the watch for maybe a minute. Then it goes away and I have to push 3 different buttons every time I want to bring it back. This gets really annoying when I have to do it every 2-3 minutes after each row I’ve done. And I can’t make a shortcut to the row counter app with the Shortcuts app for whatever reason, otherwise I could add a shortcut to my watch face and just tap that when it times out.

I do like that I can add my patterns and have counters attached to them. It makes it easy to remember where I left off on a project when I get project ADD. But viewing the pattern can be awkward as I need to zoom in due to bad vision, and that makes it jump all over the place sometimes.

I guess all in all, my biggest complaint is that the Watch features, which I had to pay extra for, are awful. I will be looking for another app to use instead of this one. It’s a deal breaker for me to not be able to quickly access the app when it times out every 60 seconds. Very annoying.

I love several features of this app: uploading the pattern right into it is amazing. The highlighter that follows your line is also nice. I’m sure there’s more that I haven’t explored yet. A couple of things that would make it better: allowing the clock to show when in the app. I can’t tell you how many nights I’ve stayed up knitting way too late because there’s no clock showing while I’m in the app. Gah! Same issue with the battery indicator. one additional feature is live to see is the ability to write notes on your pattern (e.g., I’m making slippers and for size medium I have to add two rows, which throws the row numbers off. I wish I could put a text box or draw on the pattern to re number the rows. Or cross things off as I’ve done them. I also wish it would work with Apple Watch to be able to count the row, as mentioned in another review. Overall, very handy!

It's so useful. Having the pattern along with the stitch count is so helpful. Being able to add multiple counters to a project and name them makes a huge difference for me when I'm using multiple colors and/or have pattern repeats. I haven't used the reminders but that's a great idea! Basically it's everything I've been looking for in a row counter, and worth the price, except...

I'd love for this app to have an Apple watch counterpart. That would make it 100% perfect and I'd pay more for it, and I rarely pay for apps. I was using another app that DID have a watch app, which was nice. It wasn't well implemented, and all the other features of this app were enough to draw me away, but I can't give 5 stars without a watch app. With a watch app, this would be perfect!!!
