Know-It-All received generally positive reviews from music critics, receiving a 74 out of 100 on the review aggregate website Metacritic based on 5 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[7] AllMusic reacted positively towards the album, writing "Going by the level of potential shown here, it's evident that Cara will eventually need a lot less creative assistance." Billboard was also positive in its review of the album: "As first impressions go, Know-It-All is a charismatic balance between dreams and reality that makes its author stick out in the most impressive way." Pitchfork Media was more mixed: "Writing from the heart does not automatically imbue lyrics with depth. Never is it more apparent that the factory approach is not allowing Cara to fulfill her potential than on 'Scars To Your Beautiful.'"

Commercial performance

On November 15, 2015, Know-It-All was predicted to sell 17,000 - 20,000 copies in its first week of release in the United States. The album debuted at number 9 on the US Billboard 200 with first week sales of 34,286 equivalent album units (21,935 pure album sales).
