Mind Magnets Info Organizer—Visual Grid Checklists

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. • Smoother motions and transitions, especially when dragging one magnet and others are “flowing” around it. • New system for conserving power: the app now intelligently varies between three levels of power consumption. • Minor UI tweaks. • After changing a shape or color, the keyboard re-appears automatically after a short delay, saving a tap. (For people who like to set up shapes and colors first and add labels afterward, this should simplify the process.) • Groundwork laid for bigger changes. (Stay tuned!) AND IF YOU MISSED IT FROM VERSION 2.0: you can DOUBLE-TAP ANY MAGNET for a “?” state, neither On nor Off. (Plus there are new shapes and colors.) I am working on other new features, guided by your helpful messages (while being careful not to lose the app’s simplicity). Need more space? So do I! I can be reached at adamsimmersive.com. Thanks for letting me know how you use Mind Magnets, and how it could work better for you! —Morgan Adams

On / Off / Maybe?… 3-state dots! DOUBLE-TAP any dot for a “?” badge. Version 2 also brings new SHAPES, new COLORS, quieter SOUNDS, many small improvements, and a new name. Thanks for using my app! Please contact me at adamsimmersive.com with any problems or requests. ______________________________ WHAT’S NEW IN VERSION 2 • Now 10 SHAPES, up from 3: new round-cornered “squircle” shape, two kinds of starbursts, diamonds, hexagons, octagons, and smaller shapes good for minor items. • Now 40 COLORS, up from 27, re-organized in columns from left to right: 12 bright colors, 8 pastels, 8 muted colors, 8 dark colors, and 4 grays. Most new colors are in the “muted” (5 new) and “dark” (3 new) groups. There’s also a new brighter blue (bottom of 1st column), a new pastel orange (bottom of 4th column), and a new middle gray. • 3 ITEM STATES. Tapping still toggles “On” / “Off” as always, but double-tapping sets the optional new “Maybe” state: just like On but with a big question mark. (You can still turn the item Off with a single tap as usual. Or double-tap the “Maybe” item again to remove the question mark and leave it On.) • That’s a total of 1200 ITEM STYLES now possible, up from 162. • Only one of the shapes is an actual “dot,” so it was time for a better name than “DotSpace” and a better metaphor. Your bits of info are now “MAGNETS” that snap into place. • The round-cornered “SQUIRCLE” is now the default shape. Try it! It fits text well. (But the old circle dots are still there too.) • A shortcut for Bluetooth keyboard users: hit the TAB KEY to exit text editing and commit your changes. (The app is portrait-mode only for now. I’m still looking at ways to handle rotation.) • Several fixes for better MULTI-LINE TEXT EDITING, and for editing on 4-inch iPhones (5, 5s, SE). • This version is built for iOS 8, 9 AND 10 ONLY. (If you prefer to stay with iOS 7, the previous version still works.) ______________________________ MINOR IMPROVEMENTS • All interface clicks are now quieter—reduced to 1/3 volume. (Still adjustable with the device volume buttons and mute control.) • New On/Off toggle sound—even quieter (1/6 volume). • Tapping a magnet during editing used to bring up the keyboard (when not already active) AND toggle the magnet On/Off at the same time. Those actions should be separate, and now they are. • A few of the darkest and brightest colors are now just slightly less extreme, for better visibility with different screens in different lighting conditions. • Two of the light blues were too similar on some screens. One is now more clearly a muted/grayish blue (top of 6th column). • When black (label-only) magnets were toggled, the dark Off state was too similar to the bright On state. Now the Off state is darkened more clearly. • Emoji still can’t be used, but no longer display a weird shape if you try. • Better help animation with less mutant-looking hand. • No longer possible to accidentally trigger help animation while editing. • Editing mode launches faster. • Editing icons now spaced less far apart on iPads (especially 12.9” iPad Pro). • Palette swatches are less huge on non-12.9” iPads. • Fixed graphical glitch: stray edge when choosing black swatch. • Fixed graphical glitch: editor view of magnet no longer shrinks if app is interrupted during editing. • Dynamic trashcan button now shows current magnet shape. • New splash screen graphic and app icon. ______________________________ I am also working on other new features, guided by your helpful emails (while being careful not to lose the app’s simplicity).
