Incredible App. I have been using this app for a few years now and have never regretted paying for it. I am an arborist and it has been helped for reference, research, and practice. The one suggestion I would offer is to carry the animation through to the set and dressed version of the knot. Some animations stop just before this critical stage in knotting.

Have not used since original concept .. — My entire interest was based on the steps that were provided in an earlier concept. Not the 3d animation or pictures that are included. - It gives a better grasp on the knots that you are trying to study. I would have chose a separate app if - this feature were not applied. As; the ability to go by steps, further the capacity to follow along. This in turn — attracts learners. —— Good resource for "history lessons" behind the knot you want to learn, tho.

Great app for both beginners and experienced. The knots 3D app is just what I needed as a novice. The full action motion of performing the knot with pause, rotation, and speed controls allows anyone to be able to use this app to learn and perform the knot actions. The search capabilities allows for finding similar knots by categorizing them by sport and function. Forgot how to make that knot? Need to find a knot for a specific purpose? This app is the one you want!!!

Best way to pass the time. I have started using this app to help phase out the compulsive social media need from my life. It’s such a great way to pass that same time, but instead learning every new knot you can possibly think of. I will now often sit for long stretches at a time with my section of paracord practicing, and it’s therapeutic like any craft would be. The UI is easy to navigate and the 3D diagrams make it completely painless to learn. A must for anyone interested in camping, boating, hunting, or just about anything that vaguely involves a cord or rope. If that matches you in any way don’t go without this app!

Easiest knot app. Just download the app and go! Unlike other knot apps, this one is ready to use when you open it. Other app, you have individually download each knot which can be a pain (especially if your say, out in the woods and have no internet). All the knots are free, so you you don’t have to “upgrade to the pro version” to get the knot you need (I personally believe that all app that that do that should be obligated to call themselves the lite version). The animation is smooth and you can control the speed. Does it have as many knots as other apps? No. But it’s beautifully designed, works offline, easy to use and free.

CLEAR! Easy to follow. Great functionality.. I have used this app for over two years for various applications. I find the graphics to be especially clear, easy to understand, and no glitches. The detailed information about the knots is very helpful. I am happy this utilitarian bit of tech is available.

Absolutely THE Best!. Having been in Scouts as a youngster, then in the NAVY aboard ships for 7 years, then a commercial fisherman for 17 years, I’ve learned many a useful knot. This well animated app is a superior, easy to use and understand visual tutor on the skills of creating and applying hitches, etc. Tying a knot can be learned easily, however It’s the proper and safe way of using said knots that is most important. 3D Knots explains it all ! In my opinion it is hands-down the best educational application I have on my phone.

Worth It. This app is severely undervalued - don’t tell them I said this, but I would’ve paid at least $5.00 for this. They couldn’t have done a better job building the app - it’s perfect. Keep in mind that there are hundreds of knots out there that aren’t included in this app (this app has about 126 knots at the time of this writing) but in their defense, it’d take years to build an app that included every knot in existence. All you military cats out there probably know how to tie a healthy portion of the knots they have in here, but if nothing else, this is a good refresher. If you’re a beginner with tying knots, this app will be the greatest teaching tool you’ll ever need. I’ve always been ridiculously lousy at tying knots...like I’ve had a couple people show me over and over how to tie certain knots, and I just couldn’t wrap my head around some of the techniques. With the 3D 360° views on each knot diagram, this will make you an expert in a matter of hours.

What a beautifully written App. I have always been intrigued by knots and rope designs but could never commit more than a few to memory. This app has changed that with its detailed list and video presentation of those knots. Also a favorites library so I can refresh the knots I use whenever the need arises. Two thumbs up.

I love this app as much as I love camping 🏕🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩. So, I’m a scout, and I’m struggling on knots and I’m trying to learn them easier, and my mom downloaded this app to help me on my knots. You can take rope with you on the go, and the app can help you teach them. One of my personal favorites is the Sheet Bend knot. Knots are very easy on this app because you can make the instructions faster or slower, you can make the knot upside down, and you can get a 360 degree view. I fell in love with this app so much I checked it out with my mom. If it wasn’t for this app, my life would be depressing, and miserable.

Fantastic!. I don't know how many rope tying apps exist; this app is so good I have no need to search for anything else. It is easy to use, very well designed, and packed with a lot of information for a great price. The developers are still updating it with more content so it is even better than it was when I bought it a few years ago! Update: I continue to be impressed with the quality of this application. Grateful to developers and artists who have made it such a success!

Absolute best knot app. I love this knot app. If you tie any knots in any line or rope you need this app! There’s an every growing list of 191 knots organized by type, use, need to know etc. Each knot has an easy to follow tying animation that you can slow down, speed up, flip and rotate so you can see the knot tied in the same way you want to hold the lines to tie. Each knot also has an attached history with pros and cons, tying pearls and similar knot suggestions. For the love of knots, buy this app, you won’t regret it.

A knot for every purpose. I was a Boy Scout way back in the olden days, before the earth’s crust had fully cooled, like the early sixties. My patrol would always win the monkey bridge competition at the Camp-o-Ree and I thought I knew just about every knot that a boy (scout) could ever need. Maybe so, but there are a ton of knots here that I didn’t know. And the app not only shows how to tie them in simple steps, it tells what the knots are good for and why one might be better than another for a particular purpose. So this comes personally endorsed by the former patrol leader of the Pioneer patrol, Troop 542, Quivera Council, Boy Scouts of America.

Great way to stay up on your knots.... I would like to have more control over the orientation of the knots so that I can position the knot the way I see it when I am tying it, but that is a minor quibble. This is still an excellent app for learning and remembering your knots and I do a quick review almost daily in preparation for upcoming fishing trips. I have submitted a knot that is not in the fishing repertoire, I hope it will be included in an update soon...

The Holy Grail of Knot-Tying References. Throughout my 40-year career as a full-time outdoor writer/photojournalist I have written, photographed and illustrated dozens of "how-to" magazine stories, feature sidebars and columns relevant to the tying and application of the great many specialized knots essential to fishing, boating, camping and more. My peers and I have wistfully imagined an app like this for decades. Now that it's a reality, it's all that we hoped it to be and more. The variable-speed animated illustrations portray a formerly challenging process with a clarity that is far above and beyond anything I and my friends in the outdoor press could ever have visualized. Five stars and an appreciative tip of the old fishing cap to those who conceptualized and created this innovative, easy-to-use game-changer of an app.

Not Good…. I went immediately to payment after seeing the positive reviews, the number of knots covered, and the very cool-looking graphics. Unfortunately, there are ZERO instructions for actually tying a knot - not a single one - so those cool-looking graphics are ALL there… Good luck following the animations in hopes of actually LEARNING any of them - with no text, no tips, no photos of anyone actually tying the knot, no indication of where or how to grasp and hold the lines, etc. If you are good at following the animations, and are willing to do so dozens of times, you could possibly learn some of these - except that many of the animations show both ends of the rope or line moving AT THE SAME TIME. Seriously, it’s a nightmare - clever graphics, but of absolutely no use…

Very practical, useful app. I can’t overstate how handy it is to have over 120 different knots at my disposal, anytime. I’m always hauling crap that needs tying down, or working on some project where just the right knot makes everything easier. This app is far superior to any book, because you can zoom in, rotate, and see the knot actually being tied. I love it it’s worth more than they are charging. 95% of the App Store apps are actually useless for the real world. This is part of that 5% that is awesome.

If you're Knot an Idiot you would buy this app.. I thought I was knot going to get this app because of its 2 dollar price point but I was pleasantly surprised. Knot only does it show you how to tie each knot in 3D, it also gives you a description of what each knot can be used for. Knot only that but it also gives you preset categories that you can select from so you can make sure to get the ones you need and knot the ones you dont. I give it 5 Knots out of 5 Knots.

3D Knots. This app makes it extremely easy to learn to tie all kinds of knots. Plus you can read the purpose of each knot and any safety issues related to the knot you’re working on. I really enjoy being able to slow down the animations as well being able to pause them so you can follow along. Highly recommend this app.

Excellent for scouts. WOW!!!! This is by far one of the best ways I have seen for teaching knots to my scouts. I really like the animated knot tying. You can speed it up, slow it down, flip it to the back view, flip it upside down, show the knot tying for right handed vs left handed, etc. The scouts can learn it for whatever view they prefer. The 360 view is awesome to make sure you tired and dressed the knot correctly.

Excellent Utility!. Fire Dep’t instructor; Kayaking; two activities where right knots may be life saving & prevent injuries. Knowledge is critical! This app keeps my skills sharp, renewing & improving on the go! Presentation is key, Knots 3D has been a great resource I open often to review, learn, practice!! From newbies (probies) to experts this app is perfect! Fast program, great graphics - there’s no other apps approach Knots 3D. I have books, other apps but this one is on front page of my phone for ready and frequent access. And it has versions of popular knots no one else bothers to show but are often better applications.

Great App. I am currently a deckhand on a boat completely new to knots and this app is great. Very informative and love the 3D Simulation. I have 2 issues though, it would be better with step by step instructions and also more importantly if the simulation showed the knot to completion. It helps to check the knots I’ve tried if I can see how it looks closed. Would recommend 8/10

Excellent. Add random practice of the day.. Excellent. Please allow feature for random knot of the day to practice. Keep track of when last tried, to avoid repeating early – never give 2 different knots on same day, no matter how many times tried for the day. Have user judge as easy or hard. Keep stats of progress, time spent on each knot, and allow export in Excel format via email. Help users get better by focusing training on their weaknesses. Offer encouragement.

THE Best Knotting App. I'm a macramè artist, and while I'm proficient with all the knots I "need" for this purpose, I'm also fascinated by all the practical and safety uses of knots. Despite being staunch that "I-will-not-pay-for-apps", the solid reviews and impressive preview images prompted me to take a chance and fork out the $1.99 for this one. After purchasing, I am far more impressed than I thought possible. The history, practical uses, alternate names, and especially the incredible interactive 3-D graphic animation make it totally worth every penny. I especially love that I can control the speed of the animation. Highly recommend, even to those with only a casual interest in knot tying (but is an incredible resource for the more serious ones as well.) Five thumbs up. 👍👍👍👍👍

Awesome App and Customer Service. I help lead scouts, and every year we keep an eye out for when this app is free to tell the new scouts to get it. I just had a bunch join and they all want to use the app so I emailed the developer to ask when it’s free again, and they sent us codes to get it in our scouts hands now instead of waiting!

Has every knot I need. I use a lot of ropes in my job. I was just using basic knots for everything, which wasn’t effective. I started looking up specific knots for each unique application. All I had to do was imagine the type of knot I needed and this app had it with excellent instructions on how to make the knot until I had it memorized.

Efficient and effective. The animation runs at adjustable speeds, so fast-forwarding through the “easy” parts and then slowing it back down, and having the option to pause, really make it user-friendly. Every knot profile links to other knots that have similar uses and has expanded my knowledge base. The additional feature of being able to add favorites makes it easy to find what I’m working on come practice time. Definitely worth money spent!

I Can-Knot tell a lie, This is the best App for Knot-heads!. I really love this application. I've owned this since 2012 and they have done nothing but made it better. It really is the best application to learn about different knots and how to tie them. Because of the ability to slow down and speed up the actual building of the knot, even if you're not very fast at tying knots you can keep up with the example. It also has examples of knots that you really can use and you want to use. Sailors need to know this information and this is the best place to get it, also it you have ever tied down stuff in a trailer, you need it too! I have built almost every knot listed but there are a couple that I still can't tie but it's no fault of the app. 😊 When I first got this it had about forty knots, now there are over one-hundred and twenty. But don't take it from me, just take a look at the reviews for this application. I don't remember ever seeing a program with reviews like this, I mean this baby really rocks!

4.9 Stars. Ok, I'll round up. This app is fantastic. It does everything I could want in a knot app. Except... Now, maybe it's just me, but is there not an option to play the animation on loop? Having to stop and hit play every time is a bit of a hang up for me. Actually it's what keeps me from singing all its praises. I can't in good conscience dock a full star for that. Maybe it's there and I just can't find it. Want that last .1 star? It's yours for the option to loop.

Great!. As a former Boy Scout, sailor and someone who has spent a lot of time thinking about how to teach people how to tie knots, this is a truly great tool for learning and teaching knots. You can see the knot from every angle. The animations are clear and the speed can be controlled. The color choices make the illustrations very clear. You can also view static images of the animations by moving your finger left and right across the image. I especially appreciate the accompanying history, uses, related knots and safety precautions. They are clear and concise. It’s a lot easier to learn to tie knots using this app than it is using Ashley’s Book of Knots. I have recommended it to my friends, family and anyone who expresses an interest in knot-tying.

My go-to for knots. I have many knot books, including the Ashley Book of Knots, but this app is what I always go to. It has most every knot I need and the library is constantly expanding. The animations are simple, detailed, and easy to follow. One of the most important things for me about this app is that I can use it offline, so when I am out fishing or hunting with no signal, I still have my library of knots.

Awesome for reminding me at camp!!. This app is awesome! It doesn’t use phone data so knot info is always available on your phone, even out in the forest where there’s no signal. Knots are easy to find even if you don’t know the name. This app has never bothered me in any way...sometimes a good app can have a bothersome flaw. This app is awesome in every way!!! ———————— I do wish that there was a game feature to it. So if you have a group of people on a rainy day at camp, or even all alone, you can: Select a category of knots, all knots, or favorite knots; Each person has a piece of rope, a suitable object to tie around, a ring or carabiner, and a stick(toggle); Someone presses the ‘Start Game’ Button and a random knot from the selected list of knots appears on the screen - maybe there could be an option to include or exclude a picture of the finished knot; Everyone attempts to tie the random knot; Keep score however you want (I don’t expect a scoring system to be determined by the app designer); Have fun and learn knots!!!

Nice 3D visual. Like the visual 3D to learn the different types of knots. do a 360 view, rotate and flip it round to learn your favorite ones. A big plus - you could get to the favorite knots too that you’ve hearted. Not sure how I missed but all your favorites are there in one place, make it easy to find them. Also you able to check out other related knots of your selections. Very helpful and sure come in handy.

The best way to learn a new knot!. I’ve been fascinated with knots since I was a Cub Scout, some 60+ years ago. I still have my first Boy Scout Manual and the only hand notation, in the table of contents, is the word Knots. That’s first thing I wanted to learn, how to tie a good knot. Knots 3D is the first application I bought, when I got my first iPhone, many years ago. I can’t give you a date, but as I recall, it was around 2011 and there were only about 70 knots in the application, at that time. Now, there’s 126 and I expect that number will continue to slowly increase. I have a large, hard bound copy, of the Ashley Book of Knots and it is an excellent reference, but for most of my needs, for the last several years, Knots 3D has been my go to source for learning, and teaching others, how to tie a good knot. I absolutely love the 3D renderings, in Knots 3D and I consider it to be the very best way to learn a knot. I have gifted this app to many of my friends and family members and will continue to do so. So, if you want to learn how to tie a good knot, in my opinion this is the best source you’ll ever find. TinTexas

Great app. I have books on tying knots but find this application to be better than any of them. The ability to rotate the view, so it’s more easily understood for us left-handers, plus speeding or slowing down the visuals, is fantastic. The ability to mark your favorites so you can come back to them it’s very nice.. I did not grow up learning to tie knots ( we didn’t learn that in my Brownie troop, LOL) so I really like the explanations for uses and other info for each knot. I have recently had the need to tie some knots for specific purposes, and this app showed me how. The price for such a terrific app is amazing.

Fantastic knots app. I bought this app because of my new interest in boating, and I thought learning some basic knots would be a good place to start. What a delight it was to find this app and see how perfectly it demonstrated the tying of so many helpful knots! The ability to slide a finger left over the knot image to untie the knot and right to retie it is fantastic. It’s a great way to really study a knot and commit it to memory. Not only is this a great knot app, it’s one of the best apps of any kind, period.

Know Your Knots. Been using this one for years. It’s free and the animations are good. There’s about 150 knots and they are arranged into categories of use. It’s a good app that gets updated with new knots from time to time. They give a brief history of each knot and how it is commonly used. There are no ads and I wonder how they do this all for free. Anyway I thank the developers for an imminently useful knot primer. My only nit is that the iPhone version doesn’t update, so once a year I off load the app and reinstall. This gives me all the new knots.

Great knot visualizations. I needed to help rig a model boat and this app was perfect. The rigging instructions called for a variety of knots, all of them were included. The ability to rotate the knot model and speed up and slow down the animation made it really easy to learn the knots. This is a must have for anyone that needs to learn new knots or refresh their memory.

very helpful. not only are the descriptions well thought out an executed put the pictures are beautiful and Flawless. all of it combined very helpful. coming in very handy as an arborist in trees all day it’s nice to have options to some of the knots that I accustomed to and this offers a beautiful Flawless platform for easy memory, and quick access.

Spectacular. This app has to be a he best out there. I was a boyscout 35 years ago. Some of these knots I had forgotten. I’ve refreshed and learned so many I’d never even heard of that are useful in everyday life applications. I carry rope in my truck. I choose rope and my knot capabilities now are superior and tough for whatever the application may be. Highly suggest getting this app even if it’s to just pass the time and learn some new rope tricks. I just can’t say enough good about this application. Wish I had this available 35 years ago. Thank you so much. Mike Reese

Best knots app on the market. 3-D Knots is the best app for tying knots on the market. Whatever situation you may find yourself and whatever you needs I’m be for a knot this app will help you to successfully tie the not that is required. I highly recommend this app to anyone who may have a need to tie knots. The simple examples of how to tie the knots are easy to follow and replicate. The customer service of the company is top notch and very easy to work with if you have a problem. This is a must have app for all and one that you need in your library.

A Masterpiece. I learned the six basic knots in the Boy Scouts. Then many more from The Boy Scout Book of Knots. Then 3,000+ more from the Ashley Book of Knots. Okay, not all 3,000. And now, a quantum leap forward. What a marvelous piece of work. For those who have trouble figuring out Knots from a book, a Godsend. And, so very well done. At any price, buy this. Then, learn some Knots. Fun, and on occasion, the right knot may save your life. Or, at least, make things much, much better.

Best resource for learning and remembering in field. This app is amazing, I bought it years ago and would do it again. It's great in the field, when you don't have any cell service, and you need to remember the specifics of a knot, or find a new one for the circumstances. But its also nice to look through ahead of time, and check out the similar knots and advantages/disadvantages.

Favorites keep disappearing. Great app but favorites keep disappearing. Really frustrating to spend so much time creating a favorites list of the knots I would actually need to then open it up in the field to find it empty. It has happened at least 6 times now over the course of the last 2 years or so. That makes the app pretty unreliable for any professional who wants to use the app as a quick reference in the field. It’s not a quick process to go through and find the right knot so the favorites is a really important part of the app that seems to lack any real reliability.

Top-notch app for learning and quick reference. At the top level I like the comprehensive selection of knots, the ways to find them by application category or name or end-use, and the ability to save to favorites. For the knots themselves: the clear animations with speed control, the strengths and weaknesses of the knot, and the cross-reference to similar knots. I find myself using this app more often than I imagined.

I Challenge You to Find a Better Knot Resource!. I’ve owned this app for at least 2 years. I learned a ton when I first downloaded it so I haven’t had to rely on it as often as I did when I got started with it. It may not have as many knots as some books do, but it has the really important life saving ones and that’s what counts! Every single time I use this app, it impresses me! The UI is clean, fluid, intuitive, and is very eye pleasing. The animations are smooth and you can easily control the speed. This app should be a reference for other app developers. Do what these guys did and you’ll have something great! Thanks to the developer(s)! You guys really did an incredible job and I thank you!

You should own this app. I struggled for years with the shame and inadequacy of not knowing how to tie proper knots. I found myself avoiding situations in which my sub par knotsmanship would be seen by others, and spent lots of money on bungie cords and ratchet tie downs to compensate. I never could learn from pictures and guides on the internet. This app has been a Godsend. I have been able to tie any knot I want with this and it even works with no service on your phone. The 3d models are awesome since you can see the knot at all stages from any angle.

Always some wiggle room for improvement.. When there is an evaluation of an item, in the minds of others when pushed, there is always room for improvement. One such item that comes to mind is the finishing of the not itself so as to show what a finishing dressed knot would look like. A second would be to be able to change the pattern/color of the rope(s) to better able to visualize the knot. This item could include white without a pattern in a 3 strand configuration. A third comment would be to add suggestions by others to add knots that haven’t made this list. The last suggestion entails on the different ways a particular way the knot could be made, as some can be acquired using different tact. I have to add that I really like this app and go to it constantly, really! Climbing trees and taking them down from the top requires a lot of rope learning to do it safely. Thanks

Outstanding. Excellent contet, options to control speed and vantage point. Only wish it had examples of actual practical applications. For example, with so many knots to chose from, what are some of the recommended ones for tying a rope around the waist? Or for hanging a hammock to a tree? Or a knott that adjusts the length of the rope, etc. that’s missing abd would be a very helpful added guide.

Great knot tying app. Completely illustrates each specific knot in 3D which can be rotated to see the complete picture. You can also adjust the speed. There is also detailed information about the type of knot, it’s uses, and it’s history. Great refresher for the Boy Scouts so long ago. Maybe you could add bedroom knots to the app. Just saying.

Easy to follow. With the adjustable speed control you can slow any knot so it’s very easy to tie the knot yourself .The range of knots is listed so also easy to find what you want.

Love the app. It’s such an easy app. I love the simplicity on how to use it. I also love on the different angles of the knots.

A wonderful knots app. I have been using this app on occasions for a couple of years. New knots are easy to follow with options to slow down examples and then speed up again when I am more familiar. App is regularly updated. Well done and thank you.

A brilliant app. This is the best free app on the apps store.

Simply brilliant. I’ve learnt so much from this app. Addictive is the word. With 3 x 2m lengths of marine rope I can practice in the car, around the camp etc etc. I’m constantly looking for reasons to tie knots now.

Magnificent App. THANKYOU & well done Appropriate Useful on a daily basis For man woman or child 😘

Neil. Second to none. Even an Old Salt, told me he’s seen nothing like it, & wished it was around when he was on the high seas. Brilliant app, easy to follow, great to have , even if you eat & sleep knots.

Great App!. Clear, concise, great variety, very useful. Perhaps I missed this, but would you consider a frame forward-backward possibilty to review stages of the knot, rather than having to start/pause again?

Knots 3D. Great all round app with knots for every situation

Really great resource. I use this for learning and showing others how to tie knots for climbing and caving. Really useful for learning the knots. Animations are very clear, and easy and quick to replay. Much easier to see what is happening than static drawings or a video. Has been updated with new knots regularly and now has all the knots I come across with any frequency.

Absolutely love it!. I’ve been playing with this app for several years now and it is brilliant for whiling away those quite hours we all have occasionally. There’s no way the average person could possibly have a use for all the available knots, most are very specialist but it’s nice to impress with a little knowledge. My grandson, a climber, thought he could outwit me by asking if I knew what a Prusik was, I had one tied and in his hand before he could draw breath; Grandpa 1 Grandson 0. This app is worth every cent, and some. It’s well written and is continually growing with more knots added regularly, I highly recommend it.

Wonderfully clear.. Excellent design. Would like to see it include more bends (and bends that are called knots [like the Reever]) and splices.

Great app!. Well presented and great information about each knot and it’s safe use.👍

Excellent Way to Get Knotted!. So simple, yet so effective, this app will teach a plethora of knots and broaden your knowledge. For me, explanations or commentaries that accompany video, helpful those can be, confuse maters because I do not want to hear whilst seeing. Although sound can be turned off on video, it does not in my opinion result in the effectiveness this app demonstrates which is designed from bottom up for visuals alone.

Excellent. Easy to use and understand. Great explanation

Brilliant!. Ability to vary the demonstration speed and rotate to different points of makes it much easier to learn to tie knots in different directions.

Good value. The animated 3D video is exactly what I was after and meet my expectations. A good range of knots, only criticism only shows one way of tying a Knott where variations and sometimes easier methods are known

Knots 3D. If you are looking for an app regarding knots this would be the best that you can download,I cannot fault it,great app.

Learning knots. With this app and a piece of string, shoelace and rope I’ve been able to learn a bunch of practical usable knots and now I’m kinda hooked on the hobby. Following the animations is simple but you have to work out how to make the loops and turns with your hands. I really like that and have used this app a bit like a puzzle game. If I’d ask for anything more to be included it’d be the ability to pause and move the camera while tying. You can rotate and view a finished knot but a few more complex ones it’s hard to tell exactly where the rope is going. Alternate animations might be useful too. For example, the bow knot or simple shoelace knot seems more elaborate than it actually is. They’re just wishful thinking and minor requests as the app is absolutely brilliant if you want to learn, or want a reminder on how to tie some, a lot of different knots. Possibly the best app I have ever purchased!

Really Handy 👌. Keep using it for errands around the house

Very good. Best app for knots

Thanks. Very good one

Great App. I keep coming back to this app to quickly refresh myself on various knots, is very informative and assists greatly with teaching my son.

Easy to use. This app is so easy to use and the customer service is fantastic. Have no hesitation in recommending to friends!!

Great app!. This is a great app to learn about knots. Some of the animations (like scrolling through the list) seems a bit sluggish on my iPhone 8, but other than that I don't really have much of an issue with this app. Thanks for making it! Update: As someone who doesn't tie knots often, it would be useful if the knot description gave some real life examples of when a knot would be used.

Awesome App for Scout Leaders. I regularly use this app to help with demonstrating different lashings to my scouts. Being able to see the movement of the rope without anyone’s hands in the way it makes the knot or lashing a lot easier to understand for the scouts.

Great knots app. Really well done, lots of knots (121 atm) for boating, fishing, camping, rescue, climbing, even decorative as well as general purpose. Animated, rotatable and easy instructions as well as context of use. Easy to follow and replicate knots as such. As a feature, and I’m sure that would be very easy to implement by the developers, then I’d wish that there was a “continuous loop” option in the animation so the knot keeps playing over and over again. Right now the play button has to be repeatedly pressed, which is cumbersome if one is in the middle of a knot looking for the next step. That would make this app absolutely perfect. Kept up the great work.

Super Handy!. Super handy App to learn or refresh knots from basic to advanced. Really appreciate this developer keeping these knots available

Fantastic App. Great app with practical and beautiful interface plus a good assortment of knots in various categories!

Great app. This is the best knot tying app - so easy to follow great illustrations-, great work

Go-to app. This is a must have app for anyone who needs to learn how to tie knots

Brilliant app. Love it.

A-Cat. Very easy to follow and every knot you can think of. I only require to know five or six for my job, which includes rope rescue, but I enjoy tying knots for fun.

Very useful. I use it very regularly to try new and new variations of knots, building my 3 knot repertoire.

Why no shibari?. Live app but why no shibari???

Simply brilliant. Wish we had iPads 50 years ago when I was in the navy....

Great start. I really enjoy this app to remind me on how to do some knots. Just waiting for more specific ones in the sailing section so I can recommend it under us boaties. 😉

Great. Fantastic app. We use it to help teach knots to the scouts. Would also love to see a friendship knot also known as Chinese cross knot. Love the animations and the ease of use.

Best app for knots. Great app so easy to learn different types of knots. Just wondering could the developer add different types of splices other than the two you have.👍

Handy for rock climbing. I use this as a guide for rock climbing knots. It’s great for reference and teaching.

Missing alpine butterfly bend. Probably one of the most important bends and it’s missing!

My GoTo first! - knot reference resource. How many times I’ve resorted to Knots 3D to recall my favourite fishing or load tying knots making that have slipped my mind due to lack of practice never ceases to amaze me. I especially like checking out new knots and rope tying sequences that “may” be of some use in some future situation and knowing that the Knot 3D app is available to guide me in the formative learning stages. I gave it 4 stars, it will get upgraded to 5 stars when the fishing PR Knot and Rizutto Knot are added. Keep up the great work and I look forward to the new developments to come.

Very best app to learn knots 100% happy !. Even at more than retirement age and always having worked with ropes on ships and later the farm I never was a star with good knots . So when a friend pointed out that there are apps for my tablet to learn I started a search. Found this but at 10 dollar …. Hmmm. So I downloaded an other one ‘a lite’ version of a paid one. Well the advertisement streamed in faster as the knots and when I wanted to get rid of the ads those clowns wanted a subscription of enough money to pay off a house ! Returned to this app , paid for its one off fee and moments later opened it. WowWowWow , this is just such a refined app , I WILL TIE MORE KNOTS AS THAT I HAVE SPACE IN MY ROOM ha ha …. This will be fun - such a super well designed app it is just amazing. Thanks for bringing this to us !!!

Continually improved. This program is excellent and just keeps getting better and I am talking about my experience of over 3 years. In my older reviews I discussed why I chose this app over all the other knot apps. Those reasons haven’t changed. The interface updates and the controls are excellent. So 5 stars even if you haven’t yet added the Gordian knot :)

Easy access to accurate techniques. Great and easy to follow instructions.

Excellent. This app is brilliant.

Makes learning knots simple.. Downloaded this to learn a few new knots. So simple yet informative that it's found a permanent place on my phone. Keep up the good work guys.

very handy. you never know when you need it. surprisingly it is very simple.

So good!. This app has all the knots you are likely to need in your given field of enquire. It is good for learning and refreshing your learning. It does help to have a rope with you, of course!

Worth 5 stars. Excellent app, great help

App. Great app, helped a lot with knots

Knot to be missed. I love this app. I find it fascinating.

Amazing App!!. An amazing app that only gets better as the years go by. FIVE (5) stars and two thumbs up!

Facile. C’est très bien expliqué, facile a comprendre

Indispensable. Indispensable pour les adeptes de la pêche, du camping et de l'escalade

Great reference tool. Had this app for years . Can’t tell you how many fish I lost until I learned some great fishing knots from this app. Love it .

Very useful. Wow!

Excellent Instructions!!!. No matter how many knots you know, this app can help you remember some of the ones that you haven't tied in awhile along with showing you in great detail how to tie just about any knot for any application. I love the option of slowing down or speeding up the instructional videos. A must have app for anyone needing to tie something other than a shoelace! 😂

Superbe app. Plusieurs type de noeuds, très bien illustré avec un texte descriptif pour chacun. Superbe application qui m’a été utile plus d’une fois!

How can you knot buy this!?. Fantastic app. Loads of knots and good explanation of their uses, drawbacks etc. I wish you could also view the knots in “steps” instead or as well as a gif but it’s not a huge deal.

Does the thing. Pretty straight forward. Great app and comes in handy in a pitch

Awesome - except for one thing. Making a gill net etc - things like that.

Outstanding.. This App is absolutely the BEST. Thank You So Much.

Wow! Encore!!!. Très bon appli surtout très pratique pour apprendre et se remémorer les noeuds utilisés moins souvent. SVP, plus de noeuds de sauvetages tels que harnais complets avec jambes, tailles et bras. Merci!!!

Forced to rate app. I could not see my favourites unless I rated this app. Stupid way to get good ratings... Sorry, it’s even more stupid then I first thought. I can no longer see my favourites, it keeps asking to rate this stupid app.

Extremely useful.. I love this app.

Perfect app.. Perfect balance of simplicity and knowledge. Just enough information to understand the knots history, strengths and weaknesses. Crazy easy to use the animations. I really can’t emphasize enough how good this app is. Honestly it’s more useful than Ashley’s original book. Which is the encyclopedia of knot books. But this app is the cream of that knowledge.

Indispensable. Très bonne application.

Great COVID-19 busy work. I got this years ago and loved how it taught me loads of knots then. Since I’m stuck in on the C19 lockdown me and my bit of rope have hours of fun.

Knots 3D. Interested in knots? This is the best app I have seen for learning or refreshing your knots. Background on usage, origin and more. Regular updates are excellent. Thanks to the developers. Great work.

Great App!!. Love it! Best knots app available

Add eye splice. Great app just can't find the eye splice. Add eye splice please Thanks Alex

Very good. Simple

Nord. J’adore cette application

Highly recommended app. I use this app as a reference.

best app ever. without this app l never would’ve met my husband. he was a cute coworker of mine and on time we went on a camping work retreat and l used this app to set up the bear hang. he was so impressed by my skills, we ended up talking into the night by the fire, things got hot and we ended the evening in his tent! we made sweet sweet love til the sun came out and have been together ever since! ☺️

Gets better and better. Was great and now it’s even better. Best app on my phone.

Noeuds 3 D. Très utile, j’ai beaucoup appris. Merci

Indispensable!. Super application pour apprendre et maîtriser les noeuds de toutes sortes, excellent travail du développeur le tout sans publicité , géniale! 💯👌🏻

Really good. Really cool guys! Love it. I know it’s a lot to ask for but do you think you could give more animations on the knots to objects just for the sake of me and other beginners?

Good. Good

Excellent. It’s great. (Previous reviews from past years somehow deleted.) 5 Stars for sure.

tec_64. Great app. Very useful reference.

Very handy reference guide. I don’t need to tie knots frequent enough to remember them and this app really helps the couple times a year when I need to fix things around the yard or going camping. It done if the few apps that I consistently, although infrequently, use through the many years I have downloaded it.

Knots 3D. Excellent app. Fun to try the different knots and easy to learn new ones. I’ve had this app for a long time already.

Great app. Very effective at illustrating how to tie a variety of knots.

Love this app!!!. A little bit of knowledge goes a long way. This app is easy to use and for me, it is probably the best ways quickly learn how to tie knots. Well worth the cost.

Knots 3D. Was great to start with and just keeps getting better and better.

Great teaching app. It’s important to learn to tie knots right. Even to tie shoe laces it is easy to mistakenly tie in the form of a granny knot, which always comes undone

Excellent!. Recommande fortement

helpful app. I really like this app. I can study the knotsOn both my phone and tablet

I’m always tied up with his app!. This app and I have spent so much time together, that we’re tying the knot!

Straight forward and comprehensive. This app has it all. So many knots and great straight forward animations. An easy to use category system and related knots recommendations make it easy to find what you’re looking for. A must have for anyone looking for a knot guide.

Best knot app!!. Best knot app in the app store!! My brother is proof, he’s still tied in the basement. He can’t escape.

¡Madre mía!. Que pasada de usar esta app

Awesome app for learning to tie knots. Very informative, easy to watch the knot tying demonstration, can pause and back up and adjust the speed, love it!

Everyone should have a good knot app. Very useful app.

Pretty good. Would be nice if you could rotate the finished knot Edit: they emailed me and told me how. I don’t know how I missed that. LOL Excellent customer service.

Good app but forcing me to review it takes away 2 stars!. Nothing

#1. Best useful app ❗️

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Animation showing in knots is awesome. If you are looking to get into fishing and wondering how to tie knots, this app is absolutely amazing. I noticed a knot that I wanted to tie, the Royal Polaris knot (RP knot) was not listed. I contacted support and they got right back to me letting me know they would look into it. You have to love app developers that are in it for the right reasons!

Fantastic!! and more Fantastic. Great app. Very nice animation for each knot, so you can easily make the knot. Easy to zoom in to see a larger version of the animation. In sum, all my expectations were met, and I am very happy with this app. Happy knot tying! Now updated for iPad, too. Highly recommended. A+++ all the way.

Great visualisation. App developer responded same day for suggested knot additions. Love the app and how it visualizes the knot being tied. Would love to see alternative ways to tie knots too. For example there are at least three ways to tie an alpine butterfly. Maybe show a few options? Either way I still love the app.

The quintessential knot resource. The practical part of this app cannot be denied. Whether sailing, camping, backpacking or tying things at home; this app delivers. And each update further justifies the already low price. Probably the best utility app one could have for “real life”

Extremely useful and fun. Tying knots is almost a form of putting together a puzzle. You can carry a 20 inch length of cord in your pocket and practice at any time. This app is handy. It serves as a step by step reference on most important knots. Definitely worth the money.

Great resource on the job (and countless other times). I work in construction and use rope rigging fairly often, but not often enough to always remember the proper way to tie some of the knots I use. It’s great to be able to pull up this app for a quick refresher when I’m not sure. The app is also great for learning new knots and variations of knots. Awesome resource!

No your knots. I just loaded this app. Played with it for five minutes and have to wonder, is this one of those to good to be true moments? Why did someone create this app. It’s beautiful. There’s no add super easy to navigate. Lots of 3D knots to choose from. Something has to happen. It’s just to nice to be free.

Very good app. This has saved me several time from coming home from trips after equipment failure. It’s a great app that shows knots clearly enough for those like myself who have a terrible memory. As I like to say, “ I’m knot stupid” but this app makes the difference for me.

Easy to use knot tying guide.. This app has more knots than I need to know. It does have all the knots that I have become accustomed to using for climbing. I have picked up a few others that may be useful as time will tell. I’m glad that I have downloaded this app. Very nice reference tool.

Great useful app!. Great for reference and learning new apps! The 3D function and the ability to change the speed of the playback makes it very easy to learn the knots. Then saving the ones I want to use as favorites, it’s easy to reference them when needed.

Terrific reference. Growing up in Scouts, I loved learning how to properly tie knots and use a rope. My Dad's fav knot was a bowline on a bight and always used it to tie down stuff to the roof of our station wagon prepping for road trips. I could never remember how he tied it. Now I know thank to this app with its nice animations, explanations, and it's variety of knots.

Best Knot app out there!. I love this app. It is absolutely my go to app when I want to learn something new or refresh my memory or am looking for a knot to do something. If anyone ever asks me for a knot app there isn't another that I suggest first. Get it, you won't be disappointed. It's always getting new knots and new features, love it!

Learned knots I never were able to. This is not only 3D but allows you to play the action of the rope being tied step wise! Perfect for learning the more complicated knots I never understood using 2d drawings. The ability to rotate the knots as well as the extensive number of knots make this app better than any book!

Best knots app I have ever used!. I have learned so many knots from this app. If I forget a step I can always refer back to this app. It has great features like pause and rotate so you can choose an angle that you are most comfortable with. 5 out of 5!!!

Dude.. I can’t imagine who the target market is for this app. But for a guy like me who one day just decided, I wanna learn some knots. This app is seriously legit. It does so much cool stuff! Support this app and go ahead and buy it. They clearly have someone brilliant behind this app’s design. They all deserve to stay employed. That is all :)

Great App. I’ve used this app for quite while and they regularly add to it. I refer to it every few weeks when I want something different for my sailboat or when fishing. The displays and animations are good yet simple, and the notes and references to similar knots are helpful.

Knot Accelerator. With this app, one can practice knot-tying virtually anywhere. This allows me to refresh on a particular knot when an application comes to mind. The regular updates are great. The finger control of rewinding/forwarding the knot’s evolution is a frequently-used feature. Highly recommended!

Easily the best knot tying app in the App Store. I have had Knots 3-D for many years. Unlike most apps that tend to stagnate, Knots 3-D has continued to improve both in visualization technology and the number of knots it contains. I literally get excited when I see that there is an update in the App Store for this wonderful app. This is one app that I have no regret having purchased.

Fantastic. This is a fantastic App. I am new to know tying and have bought 2 books on the subject. But this is by far the superior way to learn how to tie knots. Downloaded to your phone so it works as long as you have battery life. This is a essential app for anyone interested in outdoors survival hunting fishing and so much more 5 out of 5

Top Notch App. I am a professional pilot, and amateur knot-trying enthusiast, and I must say, this app basically led to a new hobby for me, which has proven quite useful in my day-to-day life. Clear animations & commentary on knots from history to reliability to function - DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY! This one's the real deal in a sea of fake & crappy apps.

BEST KNOT APP PERIOD.. I have had this app for a while and still use it years later- by far the best way to learn and refresh yourself-- on top of them continually updating!! Try to find another knot app that does this! They also strike the right balance of Visual and categories etc. Great app- thank you!

Quick, easy, essential. I’ve had this app for years. I’ve been able to learn knots from the most basic to complex. It’s been a quick reference, providing a reminder when needed. The upgrades have been seamless.

Excellent app and very addicting. There are so many knots shown in this app, for every type of use, and reading the history behind them is an added bonus. You can spend hours watching the videos and practicing your knot tying skills! Kudos to the devs for this super app!

Amazing app. Could save your life!. This app could potentially save your life because you can learn knots for rescue and learn the right know for the job. The app makes it super easy to learn new knots and there are more knots than you could imagine. What more can you ask for?!

It’s worth it. It does cost money, but it’s completely worth the value if you’re trying to learn knots, or literally any tying techniques. Not often I purchase a pay walled app on the Apple Store, but glad I pulled the trigger on this one.

SPECTACULAR App!!!. This is a high quality, well thought out, put together and organized, tutorial app. If you EVER need to know how to tie a specific knot, this is the ONLY app you'll EVER need. Detailed info, as well as an animated guide, on each knot make this an absolute must have app for EVERYONE. It deserves 6 out of 5 stars.

Great tool for learning knots.. Can be slowed down and even reversed to help learn the knot. There are a ton of knots. While you can have favorites (which can be many), it would be nice to mark a couple of knots as (learning). Maybe a star or something.

Best app for every imaginable knot. I’m not a big fan of using rope to tie loads down when hauling, but this app not only gave me the confidence and insight to create strong tie downs but also to use rope for many other areas that I never thought about. Amazing resource.

Best knot tying App ever. This app is great, very good, covers a wide Variety of knots and the animation is wonderful. Recommend it highly. However the last update has a bug. When you select the star for favorites it has you to rate the app or no thanks. In is stuck in a loop. Please fix the bug.

No update. I have tried to get an update on this app. It been two years and I can't update because it will not let me change the ID. I purchased but it shows a different ID and I can't change it . it's on my app with my password. I'm aggravated I got feedback

Well done. Throw the old scout book away now!. Pretty intuitive knot tying app with almost all the major knots you'd ever need to know how to tie. Great presentation and ability to rotate knots and flip them over. Allows full screen for those who are on smaller screens. Time to toss the old scout handbooks away!

Fantastic resource!!. Excellent resource! As a firefighter, I have often gone to this app to refresh and search out new knots that can be used for various situations. I’ve also submitted request for knots not in the library and have always received positive responses from the developer. Keep up the good work!!

Works for the knot challenged. I CAN’T tie knots. With knots 3D, you can put the visuals in slow as molasses mode. You can change point of view. You can sit by yourself and try try try. When you forget, go back and look again. If all else fails, get a ratchet strap.

Incredibly fun learning tool. As a Boy Scout teaching knots is hard and this app makes it the easiest thing in the world. It also has changed the way I secure things by showing me better knots. For instance I used to use a taut line hitch for rain fly stakes and now I use the adjustable grip hitch. And I used to use the clove hitch to start lashings and now I use the double constrictor.

Helpful app. I was looking for a way to do a knot in a rope and put to end points together and the app was really helpful. There is points for improvement like looking for a knot base on keywords, that would be superb to find easier what you need.

Ultimate Knot App...!!!. This knot app is simply incredible. It has every knot I’ve wanted to use and many, many more. What I like: 1. The animated tying of each knot which can be viewed from the front AND the back. 2. The ability to speed up or slow down the animation. 3. The ability to view in full screen. 4. All knots are downloaded to your phone so that an internet connection is not needed to view. 5. The graphics are incredibly clear. 6. A history and typical usage is included with each knot. 7. Clear and intuitive interface. This is a must have app for hikers, campers, explorers, truckers, etc. Well done and thank you to the developer!

BEST knot app EVER!!!. I don't typically write reviews but this app is totally worth my time. If you can't tie a knot using this app then it's safe to say you probably want ever tie one. By far the BEST $2 I've ever spent on an app. I use this app mainly for the fishing knots but I'm certain I will get much more use from it for other things as well. Many Kudos to the maker of this one.

Great. Can it get any better?. Really great app. Animations are excellent. You can adjust their speed. The knots are categorized and even have usage scenarios and brief histories. I wish we could have more quality apps like this .

Don’t leave home without it!. I love tying knots but can’t remember them all. This app is perfect to help learn them all and brush up on ones forgot. Beautifully done. Wish there was a way to pause and backup but I haven’t figured how to if it does.

Knot Believable!. It is hard to learn knots manually in a book, it is true. This allows a visual aspect with a load of knots, video image for knotting, and a favorites to keep all your favorite knots in here, or often used knots. It is engaging and enjoyable for the whole family! Usable easily navigated, to knot get this is knot possible! STOP READING GET THE APP.

The Best! Army/boyscout tested. This is really the best knot app I've ever seen. I reference it all the time for proper technique, as knot tying is a perishable skill. The App owners continually update with new knots, fixes and improvements. Buy it, you won't regret it! Aug 2018 update: very happy to see that the app team is continually improving the app and adding new knots.

Great Knot App! , well worth the price. The developer pointed out an important tip, if you touch on the knot animation you can scroll back & forth to view the process. Very helpful. Especially after double tapping to blow it up bigger. I would like to suggest that the animation include a step showing the finalization of the way the knot looks when it’s complete because in many instances, you do not show this & just leave it at the point before it is cinched up (Zepplin Bend, for example). Also, would like to see the “Sledge Knot” added. Thanks

Excellent App. I’ve had this app for a long time now. I use it quite a bit. It’s easy to use and it doesn’t constantly nag you for money. Very simple to use. You can control the speed of the animation. Many knots to choose from with definitions and uses of each knot.

Love this app. I fish, climb, and camp. This app the best I've seen and used. They have added more knots over the years and it's only gotten better. When you don't use a knot for a while you forget how it is tied. This app allows you to take your phone with you and review what you've forgotten or never learned. Love it.

Best way I’ve found to learn knots. This app is great. It allows you to step-by-step, learn how to tie knots. You can turn the picture around, upside down, zoom in and control the speed on the app of the knot being tied. This is a great app! I love it! I highly recommend it.

Very useful for learning knots and refreshers. The video of each knot is extremely helpful and the ability to speed up and slow down is great. I’ve used this with Boy Scouts and it proved very helpful for them to see the knot before trying it themselves.

Knots-R-Us. This is an excellent quick reference for most all things knotting. Very illustrative with an adjustable speed, pausible video for each knot. Video view perspective can even be changed spatially to get a better view for observing knot formation. Bottom line: Excellent App -

The Best app ever for Knot tying. This is the best and easiest way to learn your knots and what they are used for. I also like the warning disclaimers and suggestions for more secure options for the purpose. The only added feature I would like to see is a loop function on the animation so that one can visually absorb it while learning it. Please add that.

I have trouble learning to tie knots from a book. This app makes it easy for me to learn any particular knot. Slowing down the animation really helps me learn the steps. A very well thought out app. The developers kept the end user in mind while designing the animations. Hey! I can now tie a Double fisherman and prison knots. For me, that alone is well with the price of admission.

One of my favorite apps ever.. I have been using this app for years of camping, fishing, backpacking, boating, yardwork and tree cutting. I have learned so many knots that I wish I knew when I was younger but I am grateful for this random app I found years ago. I think it finally has earned its five stars from me.
