Samsung S7 menu not showing

D70%
by D####:

Pile hitch and tumble hitch are broken as of this post(3/14/16), they download but have no pictures. The rest of the app is wonderful, many of the knots are repeated but there in separate catagoris which is great. Thanks for a great app!

W70%
by W####:

I liked the app, but on the S7, the long press back button to bring up the menu doesn't work. Developers should fix this.

M70%
by M####:

Needs an update for the s7. There is not option to download all or a favorite section.

Q70%
by Q####:

Animated knots is all this is. I loved this app on ios - this version is disappointing.

I70%
by I####:

I just switched to a Samsung Note 5, which has no hardware menu button but can simulate one if you long press the Back button. This app does not recognize the long press and instead navigates back out of the app immediately. In order to download all the knots I had to visit every one manually. I also don't see the pile/tumble hitch image, it shows up blank. Maybe add the plastic grocery sack knot you sometimes see tied in Asian food establishments to make a single loop handle that doesn't slip.

R70%
by R####:

This is one of two knot apps I recommend who want to learn or expand their knot tying abilities. The pictures showing how to tie the knots are invaluable. Great for boaters, outdoor people such as hikers, and field workers.

A70%

The pile hitch and the tumble hitch are not showing any pictures of what they look like nor how to tie them.

Had this on my iPhone,now moved to android and had to get this again... Great as a scout leader

B70%
by B####:

I like the app, I just wish they would combine the same knots with different names. Like the lark's head knot, cow hitch, and girth hitch for example. Three knot profiles, all the same knot.

M70%
by M####:

I'm an outdoors person and have downloaded all the knot apps. This is as good as it gets and for the right price!

M70%

This is a greay app for whiling away the time or a guide for camping. You cant go wrong learning these.

M70%
by M####:

Love this app!

K70%
by K####:

Easy to use with step by step illustration using different colored ropes. The only draw back is you have DL each knot when veiwing for the first time.

K70%
by K####:

This app isn't as polished and doesn't have the great detailed descriptions included in the more expensive app, but it has all of the knots required for Scout - First Class. Recommended for scout leaders.

K70%
by K####:

Don't know if it's just my phone, but on decorative knots, the description is so long that I can't actually see the list of knots. Otherwise great app!

S70%
by S####:
