Wooly for Ravelry

I love this app. It’s my go to when I want to see beautiful work. It functions great and there is plenty of eye candy to give me new ideas and keep me motivated to try new projects.

The app is pretty, but the functionality isn’t as robust as I would like. 1. You can upload photos, but if you want to edit them, you need the pay version. 2. You can’t get more information on the patterns in the Discovery tab without paying, either. 3. The pattern search has been advertising that filters are “Coming soon!” since I downloaded the app... and they still haven’t come. That means that, since I don’t knit, I can’t make 75% of what the pattern search tab shows me. Verdict: I’m unimpressed.

As this is a new app, with much planned. I went ahead and gave 5 stars solely on the basis that what it does do, it does well, and the authors are activelye adding more and more features. It does not crash, the app is clean in format, intuitive, and does just what it says - allows you to view most of your notebook in a nice, clean, mobile format as well as (now) allowing stash and project page photo updates (including options to balance the picture, add text to it, crop, re-orient, stickers and more). The designers have a list of things to add, and are putting out updates quickly - this app will only get better (they are also active in their Ravlery group - so you can find out what's coming and what's 'on the list').. I bought it, told others, and bought again for my daughter. I can not wait to see what all it can do in 6 months, but happy with the abilities it has now. If you're on Ravelry and use your notebook for your projects/stash, etc - Get it :)

I bought this app which I considered to be pricey a few years ago to upload pictures on my Ravelry account. There have been updates, but the new features added are limited and the existing problems are not fixed. When I pull up a project it says "needles used" or "yarn used"....which ones? Why has the camera never been updated? I see now there is a premium package for an annual fee, which really offers no worthy purpose other than to upgrade the one thing I bought this for in the first place. What I have been hoping for all along was ease of access to my projects and queue, better pattern searching abilities and an upgraded camera. I believe it's heading in the right direction, however the fact that an annual fee is charged for something I already paid for, for features that should already be offered, is disappointing. I will continue to use this app for pictures and keep the Ravelry website pulled up on my browser for everything else. This app at this price, should offer more value.

I currently own nearly every iPhone knitting app available since I check every month or so for the new knitting app that will change my life. I use exactly none of these knitting apps since I am always mad at the data entry required for info I already put on Ravelry! Today was the day I see my wish has come true! Finally an app that can pull my Ravelry data! I don't want to sit on my phone and key in all the details, I just want to either show off a project on the fly, or check my stash on the go. This does it. I would love to be able to do the following with this app in the future: upload pictures of my WIP/new stash yarn, add new Ravelry contacts, view forums and search for patterns. Also, I'd like to view my library to avoid buying books I already have. (I'm dumb and have gotten excited and done this...)
