Frustrating app. Displays magic growing rope with 1 end and not how a knot is tied in the real world. Knot names / list are meanigless. What is needed is list of real uses and knots to accomplish that. Eg: Search for "tie shoes" shows 0. I don't care what the knot is called or what category it might be in. App doesn't teach real world problem solving.

Very good, easy to find the knot. If u ever suggest a new knot the team is very responsive. Feels good to support a good app.
