Had high hopes for this app. I use the website regularly. This app does not work on my android device at all. I can't get past the splash screen. If this app isn't going to work I want a refund.

Animated knots is the app I wish I had a boy scout. It is simple to search and has easy to follow instructions. I love the ability to see animations or step-by-step. This app has been invaluable to our family's climbing, camping, and boating, our kids' scout training, and especially to our training as volunteer first responders.

Installed paid version some time ago. Absolutely five stars then. It was wonderful. In last 6 months, however, it opens and immediately stops after initial image asking to send error report. Even after reinstalling. Thus one star for now. Still works very well on desk top computer. Phone: moto g2g, marshmallow.

Great app! Depending on how much you actually need Very specific knots it may not be worth $5. Many knots you can just search on google. This just gives you the ability to have them at your fingertips. Some animations make it hard to see what exactly they did between steps even when you pause and go step by step. Lastly a word to the developers, ADD A LASHING CATEGORY its a pain to have to type it in every time to see them all. Interface and everything esle is great!! No crashes so far.

only knot app I've tried, no compulsion to look elsewhere. price is fair in my opinion, info comprehensive and slide shows so clutch. few quirks, like perfection knot currently listed twice, parcel and package knots identically linked but that makes a lil sense. overall great, slideshow nav btn appearance not my fave, too weblike and a bit inconsistent imho

Beware.....not happy, not happy at all. I paid for the app and I'm Canadian so $4.99 US today converts to $6.50 Canadian exchanged, the app installed nicely worked for about 2 minutes then crashed! So I reinstalled it and again it happened....7 times now! The app is in my phone, or half installed in my phone or, or, or! I have over 40 apps on my Android with a 32g SD card with absolutely no problems with anything, except for this app. I sent a report and 2 emails and I want to see what's going to happen from here. So be aware! I paid through PAYPAL so, they're the "third party"....let's see what happens!

Good clear information on how to tie knots. I would like to see different tying methods of common knots i.e. bowline in future versions. Some knots are strong but cumbersome to tie in real situations. Have learned many good knots from this app.

I used the desktop (web) version for a while before deciding to buy it -I like the mobile version even better! IF you have a need for knowing a variety of knots (and you wouldn't be here if you didn't) then this is the PERFECT app for you. I've tried various "free" ones -but this one beat all of 'em hands down. Well worth the price. I use a variety of knots on my sailboat and using the right knot (and tying it properly) is essential. This app describes the knot and will let you go step by step. It has knots for pretty much any application I can think of.

The folks at Grog did a great job with this app. Not only do you learn how to tie pretty much any knot you can think of, the Details section of each knot tells you about the knot itself, gives you pointers, and suggests a better knot for a particular application if there is one. The knot list also gets periodic updates when new knots are added. Great app all around.

The absolute best knot software out there. To do better you would need a seafaring, mountain hiking, backpacking, rock climbing grizzled old man and his role.

I've got many books on knots that leave me scratching me head. Grog has the best illustrated source that explains very easy to quickly tie knot. Great to see more knots being added. Still 5 stars in my book.
