How to Tie a Tie Advanced Pro Reviews

I purchased HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro on March 31st, 2012. On November 6th, 2012 I was prompted to update HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro . After updating, features which were unlocked by my March 2012 purchase became locked. I contacted the developer to ask how to restore my previously unlocked features and the developer informed me that I should repurchase HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro . He stated that I would not be charged for the repurchase. On November 11th, 2012 I received an email receipt from Apple indicating that I had in fact been charged. I again contacted the developer and he informed me that it was not his problem and that I would have to contact Apple directly.

I contacted Apple and (despite my explanation of the facts above) was told by the Apple representative that I had purchased a different app with an identical name (“How to Tie a Tie full”) created by the same developer.

I’m extremely disappointed with both the developer and Apple and I recommend avoiding both HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro and any others created by this developer.

HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro this pretty good for learning different knots. But, the cartoon pictures of the knots when you click on each really brings this down. Without actual pictures of each knot, all the cartoon drawings of the knots look basically the same (with the exception of the really different looking knots like the Atlantic). But I certainly can't tell the difference between an Oriental and a Full Windsor with HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro . I'd have to tie each one to tell one from the other.
HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro is pretty good with the "mirror" mode and good instructions for each knot, it just isn't as handy as it could have been

I very much enjoy using HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro, but after I made a purchase on one phone, I got a new phone and HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro would not transfer the purchase to the new phone. I tried emailing customer service, but have not received a responses not the months of waiting. Over all awesome app.

Really like the layout. Easy to understand and follow. The "mirror" feature is very helpful.

A couple suggestions for improvement...

- Why are ascots on the top of the list? Who wears those anymore? Have to scroll to get to most used features. "Favorites" are all the way on the bottom...should be on top for quick access.

- Would like to see more pocket square options. There are many left out. Even the one shown in the picture is not in the instructions! (maybe a simpler version of it is).

- I paid $$ for what I thought was an add-free version. However, the ads are "snuck" in at the end of each set of instructions.

These are of course minor things. Overall a nice app.

While I could do basic bow ties and a Windsor knot, this handy app has added a whole roster of elegant tie knots to my repertoire. The instructions are great if you've never tied a tie before or if you know a couple of knots and are interested in more.

I really love the new pocket square info as well. Great for the guy who likes to play around with his look in subtle ways.

I also love having this info at my fingertips at any time even if wifi or my internet connection fails me.

A couple of things would make HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro better, make it universal for the ipad! Also it would be great to include ascots within the options. There is growing interest in how to tie this classic piece of neckwear.

Thanks for your continual efforts to upgrade a great app! Very much worth it!

It's a great little app to have. Plenty of knots to choose from. The "augmented reality" is very helpful to tying the knots easily. That being said, HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro is a bit pricy, but I feel the number of knots justifies it. Also, I would like the option to have the image reversed without the "mirror" on. And some of the knots could maybe use some added tips here and there because you only figure out by trial and error where exactly you need to keep tension and such. And as for the adverts, I would rather them not be there, but they aren't that horribly annoying. Oh, and also adding an option for skinny ties would be cool in the 'filter.'

I love all the different knots and the easy to follow guide, I would really like it though if you maybe had a gallery showing what the knots look like in real life, the pictures illustrate and that's it, they don't give any idea of how it's supposed look in depth or in scale either, I wanna see how the tie should actually look, not a drawing of it

Well done.

The greatest app ever for learning new styles to tie ties and scarfs .

GREAT!

I now have a resource that will enable me to stand out from the rest. HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro has helped me tremendously improve my style while boosting my confidence as a self made gentleman.

Amazing App. Very useful for several events

Excellent application. It add variety when we are going to use a tie using the adequate knot.

Trying to step my outfit game up and this is HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro for me! As a beginner, I feel more confident to try new things and HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro is definitely worth the hefty price!

This is a wonderful app that updates its information and is easy to understand and use. I absolutely love it!!!! You cannot go wrong with this one!

Granted I don't get an opportunity to sport ties very often, but I downloaded the free version just out of curiosity. Instantly I was blown away by the list of knots it covers and went after the paid version. The mirror feature is awesome if your wife's taking up time in front of the vanity, and the pocket square list is just cool to have on hand.

I love the fact that you can use your camera as a mirror while it teaches you on the same screen, it's crazy how well done it is

HowtoTieaTieAdvancedPro has gotten better and better. It is very complete as it includes tie knots, bow tie knots, pocket square configs and even ascot knots. The explanations are thorough. My only qualm is that the "next"/"previous" buttons should be bigger when proceeding through the steps to tie a knot. I mash the hell out of my iPhone trying to get through the steps sometimes.

Good animation, good written instructions, no skipped steps. Does what it claims to.

Ok I have no dexterity at all. I learned 2 knots when I was 12 and have been using them ever since. The instructions are so good you can do these knots first time trying in 3 minutes or less.

Every update adds more knots. As a bit of a knot aficionado, I like having fingertip access to all my favorite knots when I want to use one I use so rarely as to need the reminder. Animation is a great touch as well. I agree pocket square folding would be an excellent addition.
A note to another reviewer, the 'double windsor' is the same as a Windsor knot, just two different names.
