| 2024-04-07 |  | | This app was very useful. I knew nothing about knots, but after just about an hour of looking through all the knots, I now know how a lot more about the way knots work and their uses. I also learned how to make several, and there are very good descriptions of how to make the knots plus fun facts about them, aswell as their common uses. |
| 2023-07-12 |  | | Great app for starring to learn knot. Found at least one where picture instructions felt like a picture was skipped but managed to figure it out by examining closely and reading the written instructions. Love the extra info about how knots are used and security. |
| 2023-06-05 |  | | First of all, knots. Right? I know. This app is fantastic. Wish more apps were this simple and straightforward. Easy to follow with step by step pictures. Great way to have a quick reminder on knots you may not use frequently. Download it. And remember kids, "If you don't know a knot, tie a lot." |
| 2023-05-19 |  | | Useful knots is a great reference for those who love the great outdoors, but hate dealing with ropes. The instructions for various knots are easy to follow, and best of all, available offline. If you frequently go camping on your own, this is one app you should definitely take along. Might very well come in handy some day. |
| 2023-02-21 |  | | Well usually I see an app and it seems fantastic. Then I download it and it is garbage or advertisments take up more time than its actual use. This App is the opposite. Simple instructions for in some cases complex knots. Fantastic app if they had a t-shirt I would wear on a regular basis. |
| 2023-01-26 |  | | Best by far of the four knot tying apps I tried out. **Pros: *free app *lots of knots *mostly clear pictures and explanations *excellent supporting info, such as clear warnings about misuse of the reef knot *excellent organization and navigability *favorites page **Cons: only one tying method is given for knots with multiple important methods. For example, the Icicle hitch can be tied without access to the end of the pole, but not by the method shown |
| 2022-08-31 |  | | ...and useful apps!! Just like this one! Brilliant photos that show you step by step!! Much easier then the apps with 3D animation, which you have to play over and over again. |
| 2022-08-02 |  | | I use this all the time, it is close to perfect, love the favorits list. It is missing the all important marlin spike but that is not such a be deal. The ads are small and simple. Just download it and I promise you will like it. |
| 2022-02-09 |  | | I found this easy to understand and I've learned quite a bit. I especially appreciate the inclusion of pros and cons in the description of each knot. That helped me decide which knots I wanted to practice and which ones to let go. |
| 2021-05-21 |  | | This is easily the best app on my phone. It's so useful, the instructions are easy to understand with good visuals. There's interesting info too about the practical use of knots. And the developer is constantly adding awesome features and more knots. 100% worth it, I would pay for this app- but you don't have to. It's free, and the ads aren't intrusive at all. There's nothing to annoy you, and you don't get constantly asked to rate it. 10/10 couldn't be happier :) |
