1. A couple suggestions for future updates: - Control for speed of the video - Control for sorting on the favorites list - A shuffle button on the favorites list (to bring up a random knot you're trying to learn to quiz yourself!) - How to untie the knots!Only issue is that for surgical knots, you can flip the animation but they are not labelled right-handed/left handed, so as a default learners see the left handed version and look retarded in the OR not understanding why they have to put the needle driver in their left hand to do the knot, vs keeping it in their right hand as the method was designed for.
2. Great set of bends, knots, hitches and splices but.....(1) developer doesn't respond over glitches or suggestions (2) it's not up-to-date in that double/tripple braid dyneema splices, for example, are not there (3) some of the animations could be a lot clearer with the transitions & slower speed as some have repeatedly asked...see (1)... and (4) one's favourites category is empty, unless I cant see the obvious - you have to search by text (not helpful)...see (1)!Had his app for years - it's good! Most knots are covered, are in categories and searchable.
3. It's genuinely fantastic as I don't tie knots enough to remember them all, and sometimes you know you need a specific knot for a particular load or to suit some other practical requirement, and the vast majority of the time, there's one here.
4. Would like to see some netting knots too if you find some good ones.Each description should also describe risk of loosening and ease of and requirements of undoing.
5. Highly recommend.Having offline access to Grog's Knots is a great time saver.
6. There is also more information about the knots, discussing strengths and weaknesses.Great app.
7. It would also be helpful if knots coult be found by purpose and if descriptions were searchable.
8. The fact that I could get a step by step guide with quality pictures to tying an eye splice on my dock line while sailing with no service yesterday is well worth the few dollars the app costs.
9. 2: $5 seems a bit steep, but overall it is a very useful app to learn knots.
10. It's also been a lifesaver while rock climbing when I dropped my belay device halfway through a multi pitch rappel and I used the app to properly tie a munter hitch to get to the ground.I have a lot of similar apps, this one's the best.
11. I know I want to join two different size ropes/cords/lines but I dont know the name of a knot for that purpose.
