Not worth it

This ap is not worth it. You end up having to go to ravelry.com to be able to pull up the actual patterns to use anyway, so what is the point of this ap? You certainly should Not have to pay for a non working ap, thats for sure

Ok

Like the idea I can upload my photos right from my phone. Wish I could edit projects from the app.

Knitting

Not a bad app, wish pics would load faster, but I like to be able to keep track of projects

Update is horrible

The new version is horrible. It wont let you sign in with your username, and Ravelry doesnt let you change your email for your account. So the fact that Wooly sends an email to the email address for confirmation means youre f#cked if you signed up with an old email (school, yahoo...). So thats the end. I cant log in. Lame update.

Nice app

Love it for adding projects and pictures!

Love it!!

I love this app! It is the best Ravelry experience on iPhone and iPad. I especially love the new Discovery Feed.

Wooly

Very unhappy with this app. It crashes every single time I try to search. Please fix this. I shouldve spent that $3.99 on yarn instead. Update on my previous review: my contact with wooly support fixed the crash problem and also helped me with uploading pictures on my iPhone. I wish I would have contacted them before I wrote my previous review. It is a fun and helpful app!

App is faulty

On iPad Pro, app continues to show wrong orientation any time you navigate out of the menus. Additionally, each menu entry is off by one: select Dashboard, and it shows My Needles and Hooks, and so on. Please fix or Ill need to request my money back.

Use it often

Nice! Great to have at my LYS. Use it often. Really convenient for posting pics of my projects. Last upgrade was good; a bit faster now.

So much potential, so many bugs

This app could be that missing mobile experience for Ravelry, but its not there yet. I have run into so many bugs its unusable. The level of polish and support for a paid app is not there. Maybe someday...

Wont even let me login.

What is this whole Facebook nonsense. I go through the time consuming process of activating some Facebook link via my email so that i can log into the app. But .... It only circles back to the same process over and over. "oh you want to log in? Let us send you an email link to link you to face book. Go to your email, open page in Safari, link your email to Facebook, go back to Wooly app, attempt to login, attempt to find the right place to login because you are still on the same screen telling you to enter your email so that you can activate Facebook, waste some more time ....REPEAT the time wasting!!!!

Not interactive, just nice to look at

Sorry, but this is not worth downloading. This app is not interactive. One cant change projects,sort stash or see how much yarn is left. There is some more work needed to make it a useful app. Why is an app like this not free of charge?

Lost all important functionaliy

I used the previous version to add photos to projects and stashed items. Wooly doesnt support this any longer. Stash entries cant be edited at all. The new sorting options are very nice and helpful. Filtering and sorting stash for "handspun, recently added" however made Wolly crash. Access to Ravelry messages is also cool. Unfortunately, it mistakes the sent folder as inbox and displays my own messages as incoming. All in all this update is a total fail. Two points for the nice looks and its potential.

Wooly is view Ravelry stuff only.

I was one of the first to buy this app through iTunes. Wow ravelry on iPhone seemed such a lure that I just didnt read the whole description of this app in detail. I hope others do not make the same mistake. It is a great app if you need to access your notebook and friend notebook details on the run, however, it does just that for now. No editing is possible at all. And I tried every possible link so far. In your notebook, you can browse through your projects and your pictures, and read your notes, thats it. If you have added links in your project notes, they do not work. You cannot click through lets say the yarn you used, to see more information on its yardage, weight etc. You have to go to the stash page to see that if you have that yarn in your stash. Forums & Library are not accessible. I would like to say there is a lot more I would like to see in this app before it justifies its price to get a portion of ravelry in read only. I would rather go to ravelry through safari instead. At least this is a start.

Read only app

3$ for a read only app is a shame

This app is awesome!

It does everything it claims to. So convenient. I love it.

Amazing Potential

Im giving this five stars for the potential. So far it does just what it claims to do, allows you to view your notebook, add pictures (awesome), and edit your projects There are still quirks that need to be worked out, but the developers are really accessible and help you with any problems. Theyre always looking for feedback and developing new features. Its still in its infancy, but I think it will be a very valuable app for Rav users.

Great app!

I love this app. It works great with my Ravelry and now I can add pictures straight from my phone! Keep up the great work!

Great App!!

Wooly does everything the creators say it does. I love the camera -- snap! and your pic goes right into your projects page.

Good and Getting Better

A nice app and well worth the price. Developers are responsive and open to suggestions. Each version gets better and better. Recommended. Good layout and usability interface. Wooly v1.3: New photo-adding option is terrific. No more excuses for not having a project or stash photo when its so easy to take a picture, edit, and upload it to Ravelry within minutes. Edit your project info, status, and notes from your iPhone -- priceless! (but not needles or yarn... yet.) Stash view has issues (default view is not sorted into any obvious order, and the search doesnt find all the entries it should.) Projects view also has issues (again, no obvious sorting order, and NO search at all.) When the Stash and Project issues are fixed, this app will earn five stars from me. Charming mascot. :-) Updating my previous review for v1.50. My title still stands: "Good and Getting Better", and Better. The Stash search issue I reported earlier has been resolved. Im still looking forward to sorting options for both Stash and Projects, and a search for Projects.
