There are several apps for your phone that teach knots.

Silly comment. They both have their uses.

why do you think it's silly? The offline functionality could have been implemented with the website too. I don't see any benefit in this use case for an app. But it has the downside that an app has possibilities to screw my system or track me unnoticed. So if you do not need special native features and you are not a computationally expensive product, please built a good offline capable website and not an app.

Please tell me where the app has "it's uses" here?

How is it going to screw your system? And just disallow running in background, disallow internet access if you are on mobile. I don't want to fiddle around with my browser when I can install a light-weight app.

Not everyone is a "wow all apps very scary" person

and note the comment above by someone else about camping without Internet access.

If I were installing a knot app and it required enrolling me in their Knot Tying Social Network, I'd uninstall. In fact, if it couldn't run in Airplane Mode, I'd uninstall it.
