Just being able to ditch paper and highlighters has been a huge plus. This app is the only reason I ever open iTunes. iOS allows apps to read directly from Dropbox or Files. But allowing users to download a file from a storefront and open it directly to their iPad, without having to convince iTunes to work would be hugely beneficial.

At present, the only options are to write, erase, and clear forever. Sometimes, being able to hide the markup would be hugely beneficial. Similarly, displaying usage and stitch counts for colours would be awesome as well. But having other options for sorting, such as by usage would be beneficial for some charts. Some charts would just fit better in portrait mode Small quality of life suggestion, but being stuck in landscape is really awkward for tall charts. Having an undo button would be wonderful! Trying to figure out what the mistake was is an exercise in madness. Undo! So many times, I’ve accidentally tapped my screen, or my stylus wasn’t quite where I thought it should be, and marked something off by mistake. Showing to the nearest thenth, or even better, the nearest hundredth would be awesome for larger charts. But sitting on 0% after hours of stitching is also very sad-making. I love that this shows progress in percentages, because it gives some instant gratification to a hobby where instant gratification usually doesn’t exist. Most of my charts are in the 300x300 range, but some go up to 550 on the largest side, and it’s very difficult to use this app with those.

PDF support, people aren’t going to be opening HAED charts on this, but as a designer supporting this app, who makes large charts, I find it gets very chuggy and slow if I try to zoom out too far, making it very difficult to see much of the overall chart. Better optimisation of very large charts. Other features I’d like to see, that aren’t present: PDF files does mean you need to either be a designer with Mac/WinStitch, or know someone who is.PDF file support would be a big improvement for this app. I love this app, but as others have said, the inability to open. This is not an app to design new charts from scratch, or convert photos into charts. PAT formats),ĭisplay on screen in color/symbols/ or bothĪdd/remove markup so that you can see what you have done and what remains to be stitched. (For your PDF charts you should use a PDF viewer application)

It is a portable alternative to printing out sheets of paper or working from PDF files.

It is primarily intended to be used in conjunction with MacStitch and WinStitch, but can also read some patterns created by PCStitch (versions 4 to 7) In use, you copy your charts into the iPad or iPhone using iTunes, and then when you enter Cross Stitch Markup, you can choose from those available and start stitching. You can work without the usual array of sheets of paper and highlighting pens.
