Stash2Go App Reviews

Functional App

I use this app to upload photos, keep up with forum replies, and as a row counter on projects. Its a bit slow loading, not very pretty, and there is a bit of a learning curve. However, after using other apps and the Ravelry mobile site via Safari, I prefer to use this app on my small device. It has clear graphics for a small screen.

Confusing

Extremely confusing! Will not use again!

This app just keeps getting better!

I reviewed this a year ago and I almost never review apps! I’m doing it again because this application just keeps on getting better and better. It is one that I use nearly every day and being a confirmed Ravel-a-holic, it’s one I will continue to use. When you need to access your yarn stash, patterns or forums and don’t have access to your computer, this is great. The ability to keep track of projects and use the row counter or upload photos is amazing. The only thing that I am not crazy about is the slow loading but that is getting better and the developer is very responsive to any questions or problems. A great app and a must-have for anyone who knits, crochets or weaves.

Wow!! Perfect!!

People have been asking for a Ravelry phone app almost since Ravelry began. This is the closest Ive seen to what Casey might have written himself. Yes, you can access Ravelry from Safari, but trying to do anything useful on the tiny screen is no fun. This is Ravelry the way it was meant to be for mobile devices. Well done!

Excellent

First, thank you for offering a trial version. It took me ten minutes of using it to get me to buy the full version. This is the Ravelry interface Ive been looking for. Uploading photos and editing projects and stash works great. The yarn shop locator is also a nice feature. My only nitpick is you cant reorder your queue. That said, the pattern search is really good. If you are a knitter/ fiber person who uses Ravelry, even on an occasional basis, get this app. Its worth the price.

Still Using this app

I tried others, but this is the only app that makes it easy for me to add photos & keep up when travelling

Use it all the time

Allows me to upload photos to my projects easily. I believe I enjoy and use my Revelry account more because of this app than I would if I only had access to my account via my PC.

Great app

I love this app and use it regularly. One of my favorite functions is the fully customizable stitch/row counter - a separate counter associated with each project, AND you can add as many counters as you want. So I can have lines for total rows, increases, rows between increases, etc etc. for me, this alone is worth the price of admission. Editing entries and loading photos are the other functions I use most - so far no complaints at all.

Cant imagine knitting without it - now with Watch App!

Just wanted to update my review to 5 stars! This app just keeps getting better. Now the Watch App shows the four counters for your current projects right on your wrist! I had been hoping for this since first getting the watch. This is much handier than leaving your phone sitting out while knitting away from home. Remember that if the watch reverts to the time, you can get back to your last used app by quickly double-pressing the Digital Crown. In my testing this brought me right back to the row counter (you don’t have to launch the app again, pick the project, and go to the right counter). The Stash2Go Watch App also shows local yarn shops and ties into the Maps Watch App to give walking or driving directions. Finally, it displays a list of the top hot projects on Ravelry. Comments on previous version: Why use this over the Ravelry website? 1) Associate PDFs with projects and use arrows in the app to mark places on the pdf. Save project patterns for offline use. 2) Use up to 4 stitch counters with each project while viewing the pattern PDF and the counters stay in sync if you have Stash2Go on more than one device! 3) Combined view of all forum discussions organized by date/time. 4) Add photos to projects and stash with your devices camera. Also, the developer is very response on the Stash2Go Ravelry forum and updates the app frequently.

Good

I think the app is good can you add an update to where ravelry users can upload their own patterns or to be able to create a pattern while they are on the go and to add in more in the search section? I think itll be helpful thanks

Comparable to Ravulous for the other mobile OS

Since switching back to iOS, I hadnt found a Ravelry app I liked as well as Ravulous. This has great functionality and shows off those beautiful yarn and project pictures. Built in counter is a useful touch.

Barcode function

I purchased this app specifically to use the barcode scanner to add yarn to my stash but it just does not work- it correctly scans the barcode, the name and color way of the yarn briefly appears and then I get spinrite+ and random yarn selections appear. Am I doing something wrong? Really disappointed.

Pretty good

Doesnt support handspun projects which I find irritating and doesnt send notifications for forums you are part of unless its a response to you personally. Other then that, handy ap.

Like the bit of the app Ive played with, but...

The one thing I really wish this app would do, is that when you respond to a post on the forum, I wish this app would let you read the post and see who youre responding to while youre writing the response. I tend to forget halfway through and need the reference point!

Meh

Meh. Every time I search a pattern it says no results found which is really annoying. Still really buggy but I still use it a lot. Its just clunky.

Disappointing

Was tired of digging thru my stash so I went to raverly to create an inventory of yarn. Was taking forever so I found this ap. Started with the Lite version then saw there was a bar code scanner in the full so I bought it for $6. I started scanning my recent chain store purchases.... Couldnt find any Loops & Threads yarns... Very disappointed.
