by E####:

Although the features offered are somewhat handy, a feature for uploading/downloading patterns would be super. Would give it 5stars if it had those features.

Won't log in to my account..changed my password and still nothing. Deleting app

Z70%
by Z####:

Layout not great and stash doesnt show.can see projects and needles though

G70%
by G####:

Needle/hook list won't update. Finished projects and queue are one list which is confusing. Can't access any other parts of ravelry. Essentially useless. Uninstalling.

Love it

Z70%
by Z####:

Lacks useful features like links to patterns (or a library) and ability to hide finished items.

I downloaded this app almost a month ago, checked it out quickly during "knit night"and then forgot about it. I have been having battery drain issues ever since as well as some pretty bad network errors. I started looking through my apps to see what had changed in the last month that could have caused the battery drain. Low and behold the only app I had installed was Ballero. After uninstalling it my battery problem was immediately solved as well as my network error problems. The developer of this ap

Not much to see. When I click on "stash" it tells me my stash is empty. Since that's the reason I downloaded it in the first place, I can't see it being of any use to me, especially since I can access the full site just as easily.

Force close

M70%
by M####:

A great start, I love being abe to edit my project notes and see items in my queue on the go. I do wish more queued items were available and that the stash feature worked. Being able to choose how many of each type of project info to be downloaded would be awesome too, since I rarely look at my finished objects but constantly want to check items in my queue.

B70%
by B####:

It is a very good start. My stash won't download. Just tells me how many I have stashed. Love the needles/hooks access! Love the WIPs and queue access! Though need to be able to sort in other ways than just alphabetical. Need access to my stash, library (both also with sorting capabilities) and messages. Also, app force closes a lot. Need to fix that a.s.a.p. Use this on my Xoom & Bionic.

D70%
by D####:

Nice idea but projects come up with wrong status. Also, can't sort queue by when patt. was added, which is Rav. default. Doesn't show Favorites.

E70%
by E####:

Underwhelming. UI is boring, stash list wouldn't display. I'd like more Ravelry branding and way more functionality. Very basic.

L70%
by L####:

Great app, easy to use loads quickly. Hopefully future updates will allow adding photos to my projects.

U70%
by U####:

Unimpressive. I'd rather just use my browser to go to ravelry so I can view patterns and such.

U70%
by U####:

Great idea, but it can't connect to the internet on my Note 1. Till this is fixed, I am gonna have to leave a 1 star review.

T70%
by T####:

I can only see the home page. When I click on any of the 3 links, it takes me to a blank page.

U70%
by U####:

Tends to force close. Takes ages to load info. Would like to see and add pictures. And change status of project from wip to finished for example.

U70%
by U####:

Just kept forceclosing anytime I would try to do anything. Good concept, poor execution.

U70%
by U####:

Can see my projects and queue and that's it. When I click on stash it just says "tease" nothing there. Not funny. No needles show up and no library. Stash is important to me. Good thing it was free.

C70%
by C####:

Doesn't access the library, only the queue, needles and yarn stash. When you select queue it immensely starts downloading then without asking. Doesn't access the forums or groups. Removing next.

B70%
by B####:

It would be great if pattern database/library was available. Until then, I'm going to have to add projects to queues.

U70%
by U####:

POINTLESS app. I can search in Google Maps on my phone for knitting stores (and everything else too). Force closes EVERY SINGLE time I try to search for a pattern through my Ravelry acct. Seriously not worth the space on your phone.

by U####:

Nice to edit your progress from a phone. Would be cool if photos could be uploaded via the app as well!

Was hoping for an app that would let me look at instruction from ravelry easy. But all this does is show you what you have done, and what is in que

It would be nice to upload projects from my phone.
