## Description

Use this app to monitor the embroidery stitch-out progress on your mySewnet™ connected HUSQVARNA VIKING sewing and embroidery machine.

The app displays information about current stitch and time to next stop. It will notify you when the machine has stopped, for example when you need to change threads or when the amount of bobbin thread is low.

Design Placement lets you take a picture of your hooped fabric and have the resulting image assist you in your embroidery machine to precisely place an embroidery design wherever you want!

## Review summary

Users like the concept of mySewMonitor and, when it works, it provides useful status updates. However, reliability is a major issue: after updates the app often fails to see or connect to the machine, shows the machine running without syncing, and frequently stops sending notifications (thread changes, bobbin lows). Compatibility problems affect iPhone models (8, SE, 6 Plus) and Apple Watch Series 3, with delayed or missing alerts. Repeated themes are post-update instability, connection failures, and non-functional notifications, leading to frustration and reduced use.

### Pros

- When it works, it provides useful status updates about the sewing machine.
- It was widely used by owners when functioning, indicating solid usefulness.
- It could deliver notifications, including Apple Watch alerts in earlier versions.

### Cons

- Post-update instability—after updates, the app often fails to see or connect to the machine.
- Frequent connection/sync problems where the machine appears running but the app doesn't register it.
- Notifications fail or are delayed, with no audible alerts on iPhone or Watch.
- Compatibility issues with newer iPhone models (iPhone 8, SE, 6 Plus) and Apple Watch Series 3.
- General instability and unreliable operation; users report it stops working or shuts down.
