Frequently asked questions

Is Knit in Time free?

Yes. There are no paid tiers and no ads. If you want to support development, you can tip on Ko-fi.

Do I need an account?

No. Knit in Time has no accounts and no sign-up. Your patterns and progress live in your browser.

Can I install it on my phone?

Yes. Knit in Time is a Progressive Web App and installs as an icon on iOS and Android. See the install guide for step-by-step instructions on each platform.

Does it work offline?

Yes. After the first load, the app is cached on your device and works without a network connection. Your patterns and progress are stored locally so they don't need a server.

Can I sync between my phone and laptop?

Yes. Cloud Sync uses a private GitHub Gist that you own — see the Cloud Sync guide for setup. If you'd rather not use sync, the Export / Import feature in Settings lets you move state between devices manually with a JSON file.

How do I back up my data?

Open Settings and use Export. You'll get a JSON file with all your patterns and sessions. Use Import on the same or a different device to restore.
