Great app, would rate 5 stars but for two things. 1: Novices like me would really benefit from the ability to have the animation play at a slower speed. Maybe 50% would suffice. It's not easy to manually flip through the steps while learning a new knot. 2: $5 seems a bit steep, but overall it is a very useful app to learn knots. Highly recommend.

Having offline access to Grog's Knots is a great time saver. Stumbled across the website after being tied of making it up as I went. The app has saved a few camping and fishing moments in a pinch. I always hesitate to purchase apps as they usually end up sitting idle but not this one. I didn't think the app had the description which was upsetting but its in the details from the menu button at the top right.

Great app. Everything from the design to the content is well thought out. The fact that I could get a step by step guide with quality pictures to tying an eye splice on my dock line while sailing with no service yesterday is well worth the few dollars the app costs. It's also been a lifesaver while rock climbing when I dropped my belay device halfway through a multi pitch rappel and I used the app to properly tie a munter hitch to get to the ground.
