User Reviews

Pro-Knot is a long-standing knot reference with clear step-by-step diagrams and helpful video animations that lower the learning curve. Users value offline access, quick knot-type search, and its usefulness for scouting and fieldwork. However, reviews consistently cite stability problems after iOS updates and video-purchase issues, plus a lack of timely updates for newer devices. Overall it remains a strong reference when it runs, but device/OS compatibility concerns hinder consistent use.
Pros
  • Clear, concise step-by-step diagrams and instructions.
  • Video animations help learning and are worth the price.
  • Offline reference that works when cell service is spotty.
  • Fast knot-type search and serves as a go-to knot reference for fieldwork or teaching.
Cons
  • Stability problems after iOS updates (crashes, black screens, XR compatibility).
  • In-app video purchases sometimes fail or require re-purchase; videos may not play.
  • Lack of timely updates leading to compatibility issues on newer devices/OS versions.

I like the step-by-step diagrams so I also bought the video animation. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The “go” and “pause” symbols are RIGHT ON TOP of the video, making it TOTALLY WORTHLESS!!!😡

I’ve been a satisfied customer for years. When iOS 13 came out and the app was not working I contacted them and had a prompt response. I can’t recommend them enough.

learning a new knot or as a quick refresher, this app is the go to app for me. The video portion is great for the times I just can’t seem to wrap my mind around the instructions even though they are pretty clear. Recommend this app.
