App Profile: Knit Row Counter

The app does what it says it does, but there are a couple things that could make it better. -Having an option to lock the number in place so that you don’t accidentally click the screen and mess up your count -Having multiple projects option Another suggestion just for fun would be to have different themes for the counter!

When I first used this on my Apple Watch, I thought it was perfect. Simple plus and minus buttons, long press to clear and start over. But the developer didn’t create a complication, so you can’t add it to a watch face! So having to navigate to the app each row is silly. And the interface on the iPhone is terrible. Overly confusing… swipe one way and you accidentally remove rows. Just have a plus and minus button like the watch app. Maybe worst of all though it its landscape orientation. People don’t use that regularly unless watching a video. Makes no sense that the normal way people open and hold their phone is it in portrait mode, yet the app is landscape, and you can *only* close the app by swiping from the left if holding it normally. You swipe up on landscape. Counterintuitive to literally any other app. A few tweaks would make this perfect but it falls short.

I appreciate the developer making this app, it’s free and helpful. However, it’s way too easy to accidentally increase or decrease a row without knowing you accidentally touched the screen. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a way to start over, so if you’re on row 150 and you need to start a different section of the pattern at row 1, you have to click the screen 150 times to get back to 1. If there’s an easier way to do this, I wouldn’t know because there doesn’t seem to be any settings or help section within the app either. There are better row counter apps.
