Great app. Except for the fact that I've only had the app for 2 months and I've created close to 60 projects only to open the app and have them all GONE! TWICE in 2 months. Wiped clean! Even saving the pdf doesn't help because you can only go from 3D image to the pattern when creating designs. You can't start from the pattern and "reverse engineer" from the pdf. Designs are not stored to a cloud or profile. I'm using an android phone.
Nowhere did the Google Play store state that this software app was ONLY FOR USE ON SMARTPHONES OR LAPTOPS. The below reviewer also expected to work on a PC, so I figured it would work for me. GOOGLE PLAY SAID ONLY THE CREATOR COULD ISSUE ME A REFUND ON MY May 20th, 2021 purchase. PLEASE REFUND MY PURCHASE. Read prior review before planning my purchase of this product for my PC. Figured how to download an APP from an APP store before purchasing this. Very disappointed that on my PC the display is as small as a smartphone screen and can not be enlarged so screens are not readable. The screen popup also kept asking if I would allow this software to access ALL OF MY photos, so on the second denial I answered DO NOT ASK ME AGAIN - What a mistake. It seems that that is how any design is probably saved. I could not read the manual and there was no user guide to keep me from making this mistake. THIS SOFTWARE SHOULD NOT BE PURCHASED FOR USE ON A PC - It is NOT USEABLE FOR THIS FORMAT. I would like a refund of my purchase.
This really needs to say it does not work for PC. It said it works for my Device even tho I have no cellphones or tablets and was looking at this on PC. I bought it and it would not install. I would absolutely love this program. Such a shame...
Exactly what you want, super easy to use and you can make any pattern at all.
Great app, design your own kumihimo bracelet and necklaces with this easy to use app. Make your very own patterns, the pattern section tells you the order to load your beads onto your cords/threads. You even get a count of the coloured beads you want to use.
It only shows one template, and do not see a way to get additional designs.
Very interesting app that lets you see you bead design in 3-D. It's not obvious how to save a design (click the back button and a window will appear). That's the only for flaw. Manual contains instructions on how to braid, but not on how to use the appm
I was wondering what thickness of thread do I use for an eight strand project?
fabulous app, so pleased it really takes the hard work out of designing braids
great app. I do wish there was an option for a 20 strand braid though.
