Latest

2.0.0 · The redesign

The whole app redesigned for easier everyday use.

Projects

  • All, Active, Done and Archived tabs instead of the hidden status filter
  • The project you're working on gets a large card with its progress; the rest are compact
  • New project: no name needed to start, and a pattern, photo or yarns can be added right away
  • Progress, Files and Details tabs, with a Working on card and an Open pattern button
  • Components in one card, done ones checked off and the next ones numbered
  • Time spent: totals on top, entries grouped by day, the running session marked
  • Cost: one total, then each yarn and the time spent, each with how its number was made

Counters

  • The sheet collapses to a slim bar with − and +; swipe sideways on it to switch counters
  • Chips to jump between counters, and a card with the count, its total and what it's linked to
  • Counters ending at 12 or less show one segment per step
  • Reset, options and time tracking are one more swipe up
  • New alarm: "At one row" or "Every few rows", with a line saying which rows it will ring at

Patterns and files

  • One sheet to bring in a PDF or photo, or write row instructions, a filet chart or standard notation (beta)
  • PDFs and photos: a row tracker band that moves with the counter, outlining where the next row is
  • A toolbar under the pattern with Line, Note and Fit; tap the file name to switch files
  • Row instructions label the next row; text size, rows around, blur and bold are remembered
  • Row instructions editor: tap a row to edit it, paste a whole pattern to split it into rows, repeat a range
  • C2C charts count each diagonal's colour runs from any starting corner
  • Pattern files can be dragged into order; the star shows which one Open pattern opens

Stash

  • Yarns show brand, weight, colour, skeins left and their project; used up yarns fold away
  • Yarn details: skeins in stock with − and +, the hooks you own that fit, fiber, care and purchase details
  • Hook details: size in mm with US and UK names, and the yarns in your stash it fits
  • New hook: type the size as mm, US (H-8) or UK (6) and see all three as you type
  • One filter sheet for yarns, hooks and projects, with counts

Settings and first run

  • Regrouped into Counting, Patterns, Costs, App, Help and Community, with backup at the top
  • A new first-run flow with the Croyim sheep: restore a backup, quick setup, and your first project
  • Stitch terms default to UK where patterns use UK terms (GB, IE, AU, NZ, ZA)
  • Stitch glossary with search and US / UK; each project picks its own keyboard stitches
  • Data and backup: one Create backup card and the two ways to restore

Everywhere

  • Edit screens use the same compact tiles, so they're shorter
  • Confirmations say what goes away and what it affects, with a red Delete and Cancel below it
  • Choices are sheets with tinted icons and a hint for each, instead of the old action sheets
  • One toast look at the top of the screen, with an icon, title, one line and an optional action
  • One colour picker for yarns and filet charts that names the colour as you pick

Fixes

  • Restoring a backup no longer fails on projects with a hook or category, missing images or re-zipped backups
  • Restored pattern files whose names have spaces are no longer dropped
  • Clearing a field (a note, a photo, a project's hook, unarchiving) now saves
