YarnPal - Crochet for Beginner

I'm a beginner, and know pretty much nothing about crochet abbreviations, patterns etc. I entered that into the app, and every pattern comes with instructions that are full of word salad! Things are out of order,steps are missing & when you click the video clips for guidance on certain stitches or techniques, the project they are working on in the video doesn't relate to the project you're working on. I'm spending so much time looking up better videos! In summary,its not for beginner beginners.

The patterns repeat throughout the tabs. You are limited to 12 patterns a day and even ones you've unlocked prior days sometimes need to be unlocked again, taking another one from the daily limit. New patterns are few and far between it seems. The AI pattern creator leaves a lot to be desired. some cute patterns but if I'm paying for a subscription I expect to have access to all the materials for that subscription.

great patterns, you get free or can also pay to get more patterns. it is a great app, I highly recommend it for beginners who want to start crocheting, love this app!!!Also, if you're not paying for the patterns and only getting them free, they add some new patterns sometimes so it's not always the same.🧶🫶🏻

UPDATE/Scam: I tried the Sunny Nap pattern. The blanket portion seems unfinished. It takes more than 3 hours to finish. Not Friendly for Newbies. The way they have the patterns set up is horrible, it's all in sentences. Most of the patterns require more than 7 days (free trial) to figure out if the pattern actually works. AI patterns have a tendency to not work properly or at all. The AI picture thing will not work properly, hence why the AI patterns do not work. :(

They just lied about everything! I don't know how they managed to get any reviews above 1 star when the app doesn't do any of the things they advertised. No, you cannot snap a pic and create a pattern. No, you cannot generate new patterns based on prompts with their AI tool (you only get a photo of the imaginary item). No, you cannot complete the preloaded patterns because they're also AI generated and will not look like the photo of the finished product. And they're charging people for this?!?!
