## Review summary

Common threads in reviews show CrossStitch Editor offers strong pattern design capabilities, including creating custom designs and palettes, but is hampered by a steep learning curve, unclear UI, and repeated permission/save issues that affect reliability on some devices. Users appreciate the beginner-friendly intent and pattern-from-image features, yet many report problems saving, exporting PDFs, and starting original patterns due to missing instructions. The app’s value increases with time and learning, but onboarding and stability across devices remain key drawbacks.

### Pros

- You can design your own cross-stitch patterns from scratch with customizable palettes.
- Ideal for beginners getting into cross-stitch design.
- Pattern editing is flexible once you learn the interface.
- The ability to hide colours helps simplify viewing and editing patterns.

### Cons

- Steep learning curve and non-intuitive UI; buttons lack clear labels and navigation can be awkward.
- Persistent folder permission prompts and save/export problems (saving patterns, PDFs, or locating saved files).
- Reliability issues on some devices (e.g., certain tablets) and occasional crashes or unusable states.
- Lack of clear onboarding or instructions for starting an original pattern.
