Description

iWeaveiIt is drawdown app for designing hand weaving patterns. It was developed by the same people who did WeaveIt for the PC Windows environment. The single purchase of iWeaveIt will download to both your iPhone and your iPad.

The iWeaveIt app supports Apple’s human interface guidelines with many of Apple's features. It uses gestures and touches for draft manipulation. This makes the program easy to use on the iPhone, iPod and iPad. The many animations give the program pizazz. The result is a fun and enticing program to create and view weaving drafts.

√ Zoom with gestures, double click and two finger click similar to Apple’s Map program.

√ Create and edit threading, treadling, and tieup for your drafts with multiple edit functions ( cut, copy, paste, flip, wrap, and change colors).

√ Supports lift plans.

√ Multiple levels of undo are available for editing.

√ Create custom color palettes.

√ Reads and writes WIF files.

√ Export your pattern drafts as WIF files via email, iCloud or save to local storage and transfer with iTunes.

√ Import WIF files into iWeaveIt from email or internet (www.handweaving.net) with only one click. WIF files are recognized for iWeaveIt and load immediately.

√ Sync files using iCloud between all your devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad and Macintosh, Windows PC).

√ Print the draft to your air printer. You do not have to email or transfer your file to another computer.

√ View one repeat of the design or multiple repeats to get a feel for how the whole cloth will look.

Editing allows up to 8 shafts on iPhone and 24 shafts on iPad.

In-app purchases available for :

√ Yarn and Project Management

√ Tracking your threading or treadling while you weave

√ Designer One -- Add Tabby, Turn Drafts, Find Floats,

What's New in Version 5.2.0

IWeaveIt

I purchased and paid for the program thinking it would help. I cannot wrap my stoke brain around this program. I’ve been weaving since approximately 2014. I’m not exactly a beginner but a stroke in 2016 makes it just too difficult and frustrating. It must be a good program but not for me.

Love This App!!!

I’m a fairly new weaver & was sooo excited to discover this App for my IPad! After trying it out, I purchased the add-on’s also. It is well worth the price! What a wonderful tool to have.

2020-01-31

Works

This app wouldn’t work when I first got my iPad. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, which worked. The app does what it should.

2020-01-27

Files missing

I am pleased with this app because it is so easy to use. But, my files keep disappearing AND I am getting somebody else’s files mixed in with mine. I emailed help and the response I got was,

“I have no idea. I don’t know. It’s all in Apple iOS File system. Nothing I can do.” Huh?

2019-11-25

Why more money

I can’t believe this program does not include counts for colors and total calculations for needed yarn. Really you have to purchase this separately, that should be part of the cost for the program.

2019-06-22

Print out the user manual for reference

I found that printing out the user manual was quite helpful ... I know, I know we should all be getting away from printing so much paper, etc. Each page is put into a plastic sleeve and then placed in a 1” binder. I then earmarked particular pages for quick referencing. This is a wonderful tool!

2019-03-23

So far so good

I am new to weaving and thus still learning. It would be nice to have the app tally up the number of heddles so that I can check to be sure that I have threaded it correctly. Right now I print out the sheets and tally up the 4 heddles manually.

Also it would be nice during the editing mode to scroll with accidentally moving or adding a threading position, this is also true with the treading.

Otherwise it has been great to keep tract of the lifting of the shafts while weaving. I am sure I will get better at weaving with this App.

2018-10-30

Errors After Update

I have used iWeaveIt happily and successfully for years, and have become very familiar with its use. Since the recent update, however, I am now getting serious calculation and filing errors. The program is currently telling me, for example, that a warp of 315 threads sett at 20 epi is 3.27 inches wide. I am using iWeaveIt 4.1.

2018-10-03

Totally irritated!

This "major update to the file management system" resulted in taking something that was easy and simple and replacing it with something cumbersome and clunky. You can’t even specify where you want to save a pattern. The condescending "did you forget?" comment is really uncalled for too. I am beyond unhappy.

2018-01-29

Home use

I bought this program app about a year ago and it is great. When I have any questions I email them from the app. And I always gets reply the same day or first thing the next day. If I had the extra money I would by this program for my Mac. I have also bought all the extras. Things I did on graft paper I no longer have to do. I can go back and look at things I have woven before. Great Application every Weaver should own this. 10 stars I give it. Ted wiz

2017-10-05

Colors

Please add more colors do the option to insert rows and columns!

2017-05-22

Having a hard time working with this app

I find this to not work properly or there is insufficient instructions on how to operate the app to do the different colors for the weft and warp, to figure out the proper amount of thread needed to end up with a specific size when finished weaving.

2017-05-02

App fixed; all is well again!

I freaked when the app was in transition, but it's all fixed now .... Something to do with a change to iCloud. The save function still seems a little odd to me, but I can easily find my drafts, and everything else works perfectly, so I'm happy.

2016-12-31

Long needed upgrade to iCloud support

Full disclosure: I am an iOS developer.

With the update to iOS 8, Apple changed how iCloud documents are stored. They are now stored in "iCloud Drive" which is a document storage system that will work seamlessly across different platforms including macOS. Unfortunately, Apple did *not* include automatic migration of older files from the "iCloud Documents" system to the "iCloud Drive" system. Consequently, in order to migrate users to the new system, each developer must decide on how to do this.

With iWeaveit, the way the developers chose to approach the issue was to mark the old files as read-only. When you save changes to those files, it will *only* save to "WeaveIt Drive" (or locally).

Additionally, the devs chose to leave your old files where they were and not move any to the new system without you actively choosing to do so. Likely, this was for performance reasons since if you have a lot of patterns then trying to automatically move them would make the app appear to freeze as it tries to move a lot of data. Unfortunately, this is confusing (and I've docked the app one star for this reason) though I am not sure what a better design would be. Personally, I know how challenging it can be for a small company to balance great performance and an intuitive UI, so I'm not complaining too much. ;)

I'm delighted to see that the team is taking a proactive approach to managing this change and I really like how nicely it integrates with the Mac version of the app. (Using iCloud Drive allows me to pull up designs I've been working on while at home and play with them on the bus.)

Message to the developers:

Please consider adding in a mechanism for users to batch migrate their files and remove them from the older read-only file system. Apple has a history of deciding (somewhat arbitrarily in my opinion) that it will stop supporting older technology and then giving you two months over the summer (when my kids are out of school and I would rather be camping) to support the new version of iOS before all your users upgrade their phones.

2016-11-11

New version- buggy

Are you kidding???

I just downloaded version 3.2.8 with its "major change to support iCloud Drive".

The first thing it tells me to do is to resave all my drafts stored in iCloud so that I don't lose them. Save them one by one. All 97. Each time I open a draft and try to resave it, it either doesn't resave or the app crashes.

This update needs some serious tweaking!

(The App Store wouldn't let me post without giving it at least one star. Believe me, it needs negative stars at this point.)

2015-06-25

Pésimo muy poco intuitivo

He tratado de usar la aplicación y es pésima, nada que ver con todo lo que uso en mi IPhone... Es muy poco intuitiva... Sniff

2015-04-09

Excellent

This is one of the most useful weaving tools you can get. In relation to the other weaving applications on the market this one is the most reasonable cost wise. I would love to see more additional features even as an in app purchase.

2015-02-20

A Great Deal and Great (Portable!) Fun

This app is so much fun. It does basic draw downs and has a color wheel picker. It is fairly easy to figure out, but I suggest you play with some of the samples and learn how to save and manage files and poke all the icons/do the different things before starting to work on your next real project. You can save as wif files which can be read by the computer programs and you can print. The woman who wrote it is a weaver, so she knows what she is doing. If you want to add on yardage estimators and heddle counters and things like that, there are add on packs for $7 each. Even if you bought everything it would still be a third the price of a computer sized program. It's not so fancy as those, but it does everything I need, it is a sixth the price and I can do it on my iPad! I have had zero problems with crashing or anything like that.

2014-12-15

It does everything!

Love love love this app. Just sat here and designed some blankets. Picked my own custom colors, quickly tapped in the threading, let the add-in app add the treading and figure the yardage of each color I will need and how many heddles on each harness I'll be using. Something that was a surprise, I could add the SIZE of each yarn I'm using (my weft is fatter than my warp) and the drawdown compensated for this! Neat! I'm looking forward to planning some bands (yes, you can indicate that you're weaving a warp-faced project) and a rug (yes, just tell the app you are weaving a weft faced project). I love the flexibility of working with the program on my iPad and saving my projects to the cloud, too! Love this app!

2014-06-24

Excellent mobile design tool

I'm using this all this time with my 4/4 Harrisville loom. The counter is great. I can design while on the go, or waiting around.

2014-06-05

Good app!

It is a very handy little app. I see myself using this for every project. I would have given it five stars except that all the useful features were additional in-app purchases adding another $21.00 to the app fee.

2014-05-27

Handy

I find this app quite handy for previewing prospective projects. Just fun to play with in exploring colors, patterns,etc.

2014-05-04

Excellent app!

I am really so impressed with this app -- I'm actually using it more than my full-featured desktop weaving software. Very easy to use, taking full advantage of the Apple iOS. It does get a tad pricey if you decide to go for the additional add-on features, but it's definitely worth it for the pleasure and convenience of being able to do everything on my iPad.

Congratulations -- and than you -- to the developers!

2013-12-29

I like it

I plan on designing on the iPad and finalizing my draft on my pc using the original WeaveIt. No problem storing drafts locally. Since I'm using the pc version for final processing, I don't need to purchase the add on features here.

2013-12-12

Doesn't properly save files

Intuitive enough to use I guess, but it isn't properly saving my files. It changes colors and palettes seemingly at random. Even though my saved file shows the colors I want in my saved patterns, it will not open with the proper colors. Considering I bought it to test out warp/weft ideas in patterns, this is a big problem.

Overpriced and starting to regret the purchase.

And then they want to charge you even more for add ons for things that should be included.

2013-12-07

Love it

This is my most used app on my iPad! I love it

2013-11-29

Everything I need and more!

This app is very nice and I use it to create my project patterns. I highly recommend it!

2013-08-31

Great program!

Easy to use & works well. Wish there was an option to add a row to correct mistakes, but I can live with it as is.

2013-08-27

Weave it

Great tool for setting up your weaving patterns and keeping track of what you wove. Great tool to have beside you while you are weaving. Almost like having a computer loom. Almost...

Would I do without? No way in ****! I love it!

2013-08-11

Great product

I love this, it's user friendly has a great interface!

2013-03-13

Terrific customer support

The new update solves the problem iPad gen 1 users had with saving files. Thank you! I can't wait to start designing and weaving. A beautiful, intuitive program.

2013-03-09

Great Update

Really like the icons showing the file. Great response to the problem of crashing. Just a very nice weave design app to use. Very easy to learn

2013-03-07

AWESOME!

I love this app! It works perfectly and has some really nice add on features too.

2013-03-07

Outstanding

This is a great weaving app! Easy and intuitive to use, great for someone who is away from their main computer but still want to work on ideas while traveling. Highly recommended.

2013-03-07

Simply Great

Easy and logical to manipulate. Best weaving app. to use on iPhone and iPad. Thank you

2013-02-06

I LOVE THIS!

I find this app even more user friendly than my PC version of WeaveIt. I don't know if it's more intuitive but I much prefer to enter my drafts on my iPhone, save & export, then open them on the PC to print...(wait - just found out I can print wirelessly direct from iPhone!) Regardless, awesome job on this app!! I just used the Threading & Treadle Tracker features to thread my heddles then to double-check accuracy when sleying the reed. THIS APP MADE THREADING A FANCY TWILL SO EASY! And now I am actually weaving my project Trompe as Writ and with the Treadle Tracker it is going so quickly. I am so happy with this app! Again... GREAT JOB!

2013-01-28

Outstanding!

This is THE app for designing your weaves on the pad. I love it! Great job!

2012-11-12

Great!

Love this app but would like ability to delete projects right from the app and to rename projects from the app.

2012-10-22

Awesome

I would be lost without this awesome app. The treadle tracker is the greatest upgrade also!!

2012-10-16

You won't believe how fun this is!

The first time you use it, you will create a new fabric. How fun is that? So easy and so fun! And, don't forget to get the add-on.

2012-07-15

Sweet app for progressing in weaving knowledge.

I was a bit lost trying to adjust an overshot pattern in Handwoven magazine to narrower width and fewer repeats, and this app really helped me comprehend which threadings/treadlings to repeat to get my desired finished piece. Very helpful to gain better understanding of a structure.

App was pretty straightforward to learn, and just the right amount of helps in the right places. I'll for sure have to try out the treadle tracker (bummer have to purchase separately). App can be used for designing, too.

Love that I can import WIF files from the web, notably from handweaving.net; I'm sure there are many more sites I haven't yet discovered.

Helpful PDF user guide on their website - I downloaded it into my iBooks App for easy reference.

2012-04-16

Invaluable Tool !

5 stars again for the upgrade pack. Everything I wanted was included! I use this app all the time... Love the print capabilities and ease of use.

2012-01-02
