Magic Needle: Punto de Cruz

Still waiting to find out why my projects won’t load.

After I imported my design, I was not able to change the thread color appropriately, and therefore, am unable to get a correct representation of my art project. What a waste of $40. I’ll be searching for a new program.

I purchased a pattern from the “shop” area on app. There is nothing that explains how to access the purchased pattern.

I tried to submit feedback both within the app and on the website, and got the message “failed to submit feedback”, so here I am. The most recent update that forces entering the number of colors/thread rather than the sliding scale makes this app nearly useless to me. I use this app to help pick thread colors just as much, if not more often than, making full patterns. I use my own art to make cross stitch and embroidery patterns, and having to pick the right number of thread and hope to hit the sweet spot to get the right colors is impossible now. Can there at least be an option to get turn the sliding scale on/off? Without this, I unfortunately won’t be able to justify the continued subscription to this app, and I would much rather keep it.

I’d pay for this app in a second if I were able to edit it… I got my image to look pretty good when transferred… but there were spots I would like to fix the colors. It would be so easy if instead of marking my stitched if I could press the colors below to change some of the stitches with the colors already given. I see that you guys have planned to add that feature so hopefully you do soon.

There was no way to upload an already made pattern to the app, it would use the image to create a new pattern and also doesn’t give an option to upload a pdf pattern to markup. I didn’t even use the app since I’m not copying a whole pattern into the system just so I can mark it up and the app doesn’t have anything that would upload it existing as an option

I love so much about this. Except that I cannot sync across devices. I could print out a list of the colors I need, but I find that the app tells me how much I already have and how much is needed for the project so I can just use it. However, I can’t access the -at terns I’ve made on my iPad on my iPhone. Also, having the option to scan colors in and them auto populate would be a time saver.

Is there a way after you buy the pattern from a third party if will be a pdf file to load it to this app

It’s okay for what it is, but it’s not what I’m looking for. I need a user-friendly program that will allow me to draw original designs from scratch, or at least edit my converted art images. I tried to create a pattern of hearts. The app left off the point on the bottom of the hearts, and I simply wanted to add one red square but wasn’t able to change it.

I absolutely adore this app. My one and only wish (why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5) is the ability to edit the pattern/colors after it’s been created. For example, an image on a white background used as a pattern automatically makes the background space allotted for white stitching, when it really should just be empty space. Another example, some outlining could have the colors adjusted once made into the pattern. Otherwise this app is amazing. I especially like the newest updates for marking stitches and how you view the pattern (day/night & color/greyscale).
