Almost perfect
This app is almost perfect. I use this for almost every knitting project, because I can't just knit a pattern as written! I have a few very minor quibbles, but I haven't found anything better. Sometimes it crashes when I am trying to undo something. It would be cool if we could specify if the boxes in the grid were square or more rectangular, which would give a better idea of how the pattern would look knitted up. I also wish I could flip a pattern vertically (over the x axis) as well as horizonally. But other than those few things, this program is Fabulous.
Ugh
I’ve had this for a couple of years. I use it on and off but each time I use the paintbrush it forces the app to close. It’s annoying to put a p for each and every box one by one because the one that does it all together crashes the app. I’ve emailed the developers before. I was told to make sure everything was updated which I did and it still crashed my app. I would love this app if it wouldn’t crash.
Latest upgrade bug?
Pattern Genius is by far my favorite knitting app. However since the latest upgrade I am having a problem. I cannot color or change the color of the stitches. The chart takes a long time to save to the app and there is an error message that says the chart is unable to sync. Charts do not sync between the app on my iPad and the app on my phone. I hope this can be fixed.
Must pay for basic functionality
The app should not be 'free'. Anything I tried to do in the app was behind a paywall. In addition, the interface is confusing and not optimised for macos
And the clouds rolled back, and the angels sang...
Is this the best charting app available? Yes Did I buy an iPad just so I could get it? Yes Am I overjoyed that now I can also have it on my Mac? Why yes, yes I am. I've bought the annual subscription each year, and developments like this let me know that it's worth every penny and then some. I especially appreciate the decision to let the subscription carry over from iOS to Mac.
It’s good if you don’t wanna do color work
I only gave it 3 stars because it’s a good app for creating basic designs like lace or cables, but at least let us have some basic colors with the free version.
Good design, too many crashes and loss of work
I really wanted this to work. Started playing with it and was thrilled. Then the crashes started. The crashes started coming seconds a part from each other, and when they happen, they often delete the latest work (if you are lucky). On a few occasions the crash deleted pattern entirely. Now I’m trying in small efforts, maybe that will help. A few notes. Losing the projects entirely happened when I had iCloud sync on. It didn’t help. The only place with a “save” button to use at all is in the chart set up, and it looks as if that may only save the chart settings, not the work on the chart. All the features that make the app cool are only available by subscription. Know that going in.
