User Reviews

Animated Knots by Grog is consistently praised as a simple, well-organized pocket reference with engaging knot animations, clear steps, and strong real‑world usefulness for teaching and tasks like sailing, climbing, and rigging. Common drawbacks include outdated content, a desire for more knots and variety, and limited sharing options (social features and App Store links). Overall, it remains a trusted, practical tool, though updates and expansion would keep it current and even more versatile.
Pros
  • Clear, simple, intuitive organization that makes knots easy to find.
  • Animations and step-by-step visuals you can scrub forward/back at your own pace.
  • Extensive library with background information for learning and teaching; a great learning resource.
  • Pocket, portable reference you can carry and use in real life (sailing, climbing, rigging, disaster recovery).
  • Highly practical and trusted for hands‑on use and teaching others.
Cons
  • Content can feel outdated; updates and new knots are needed.
  • Desire for more knots/variety beyond common ones (e.g., fishing knots, hitches) and fewer duplicates (e.g., many figure‑8 variations).
  • Notable lack of modern sharing features; needs better social links and App Store review flow (currently only email a friend and iTunes link).
  • Repetition of certain knots suggests redundancy; would like broader coverage.
Recent reviews
I had to go outside app to get description of "unreeving" mentioned in Stevedore knot. Still an excellent Knot learning tool and reference.
