I really like this app. I also love that the translations actually mention the name of the knot as we know it instead of just a translation of the english name. It could be improved by mentioning if each knot is constricting like other apps do. Which knots I could use in rain or after putting lots of strain on it if I want to undo it at some point.

This is a terrific, authoritative guide to a wide variety of essential, general-purpose knots as well as a great selection of less frequently seen but popular specialty knots for unique real-world purposes. The visual demonstrations are great and you can control the speed, stop and start, and vary the viewing angle. The text descriptions and caveats about a knot's performance and limitations are also very good.

Extremely useful app. Knots for every need. Easy to follow animations with 360 views, which helps with the tying and finish. It's also educational, teaches the purpose of the knot (practicality), the original purpose, and references other variations. Can't recommend enough. You don't need to be an explorer or stunt guy to find use for the app. I'm an average IT guy who needs to tie stuff (tarp, hammock, hang stuff, lift things.)
