New in this release:

We are excited to add full localization to Knots 3D including knot names, descriptions, usage, menus and categories! We have also added Japanese, Chinese, Danish, and Portuguese support.  We believe the translations to be accurate but sometimes the English knot name has no direct equivalent in the target language. If you think a translation is wrong, can be improved or if there is another common name or synonym for the knot, please let us know!

  • Spanish Knot Name Localization
We are excited to add localized knot names in Spanish to compliment the Dutch, French, German, Italian, Korean, and Russian languages in the last release. We believe the translations to be accurate but sometimes the English name has no direct equivalent in the target language. If you think a translation is wrong, can be improved or if there is another common name or synonym for the knot, please let us know or contribute to our crowd sourced translation project at http://crowdin.net/project/knots3d. In addition to the above, other languages are partially complete, e.g. Japanese, and we hope to include them soon. The next phase of the project is to localize the category names and navigation buttons.

BUG FIX SUBMITTED, PENDING APPLE REVIEW: v2.9.1 of Knots 3D was released to the iTunes store 10/9/12 with updates for iOS6 and the new 4″ display on the iPhone 5. Unfortunately it introduced a minor bug on older devices with smaller screens where the last row of the knot list is not reachable or displayed, e.g. Zeppelin Bend. This bug has been fixed and submitted to Apple. We expect it to be approved and available on or around 10/18. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
