User Reviews

Users praise Tin Can Knits for size-focused guidance, row-counting features, and handy planning tools, plus easy access to purchased patterns. However, many reviews hinge on a disruptive update that erases progress, disables the repeat tracker, and makes the app heavily internet-dependent with a confusing UI. These issues undermine offline usability and trust. Some users also express concern about pricing and paid features.

Pros

Built-in row counter and repeat-tracker/highlighter that automatically tracks rows and repeats.
Size-specific view shows only the active size's instructions, reducing confusion.
Automatic import of Rav pattern purchases and easy access to purchased patterns.
In-app tutorials and technique links provide quick guidance.
Clear planning tools with notes and per-project organization.

Cons

Update wipes out saved progress and makes in-progress projects inaccessible.
App is heavily internet-dependent; offline use is limited or not possible.
New UI is confusing and not intuitive, with dropdown menus that slow navigation.
Row counting/repeat tracker has been removed or stopped working, requiring manual counting.
Pricing and subscription model raises concerns about paying for features.

App is unusable without making an account. I don’t want to provide my email address to another app. Installed, browsed for a bit, had no functionality as a guest user, then deleted.

The original app was fabulous. This update, as others have said, ruined everything. I scratch my head over why, why would this update wipe out all my progress on patterns that I purchased?? Why eliminate the very useful row counting function? And then expect us to pay for this? I wish/hope TKN will reconsider this update. I will not be using this app for now. It’s too frustrating. ☹️
