  • Best mind map tool I’ve found

    I’ve tried a lot of different mind mapping tools. It’s hard to find one that doesn’t get in the way of the thought process. The new brainstorm feature makes this app even better.
  • Huge help for project management

    I’m a visually-oriented person, and am knee-deep in a huge, huge project. I’d used post-its and whiteboards and sketchbooks to try to keep on top of what needs doing, but they all ended-up being so much chicken-scratches.

    I’ve been using this app for about a month now, and being able to zoom in to see project details, checkboxes and completion spinners; and then zoom out to see an over-view of where it is and what is coming next has been a huge help!

    I can say that this project is most definitely not the last I’m going to be managing with this app.

  • Multi Device, Cloud-connected, Intuitive, One fee.

    That’s all you need to know. It works so well, and I couldn’t find any other product that didn’t want to charge me monthly per device to cloud share between my computer and mobile devices. Brilliant product.
  • Works Perfectly

    This is my go-to app for structuring my thoughts, my prayer list, my org charts, and things I need to communicate to others when just words won’t do. I’ve used this app on my iPhone, iPad, MacBook and Windows PC. All sync perfectly via DropBox. Highly recommended that you purchase the Pro version. It is easily worth the money!

  • Best mind map program

    Best and most flexible mind map program I've found so far. Free version worked perfectly, but the paid version had enough extra features I went for it and don't regret it. I use it for a visual map of storylines, so being able to move things around freely is especially necessary. That's the feature that's been hardest to find for some reason.

  • My Scatterbrain is indebted to SimpleMind <3

    This app really helped me get my thoughts in ordered and once I opened the app and got the hang of it. I tuned into my flow state and my usually scattered thoughts on scratch paper is now properly organized, concise, easy to comprehend and when I figured out there was the outline feature, my jaw dropped because that’s just the cherry on top! I know that I’ll be using this app to help me plan out my ambitions for 2021 and onward!

    Ultimately, it’s simple to use and mind mapping is such a brilliant concept to adopt from paper to a digitize form that you can take on the go when creativity strikes you! If you like mind mapping on paper or digitally, I highly suggest this app!

  • Using it as a Writing Tool to digitize all of my stray notes.

    Every day, I generate stray thoughts for my book and write them down as I walk. I have been looking for a way to digitize them I knew about mind mapping, but this is my first project that needed it.
    I skipped a template, since I’m not sure a map of my mind fits a structure.

    I like it because it’s simple and does the job: what are my ideas and how are they related? And I can change it around and view ideas from different perspectives.

    Definitely recommend, especially if this is your first tool of this type. When you want to do something outside its abilities, that’s when you should think about another tool.

  • Hard on iPhone

    I think this app is very useful in creating outlines, word webs etc., in a very aesthetically pleasing and organized way. I especially like that you can move your thoughts around easily on the outline itself. However, using it on an iPhone created a final product that was a bit too small to be useful and other formats. Perhaps it would be better on an iPad. It also seems like the free version includes little of what the normal app provides.

  • Almost

    Mimdmap beats Onenote, Scrivner and Synology's DS Note. There is one major thing I feel it's lacking, and that is the ability to add a picture to the text page option. All those other note keeping applications have that as a main feature and any note is better with an illustration. I figured out a work-around to this by creating a child-note and then adding the pictures to that. That way I can collapse the images and they don't take up space in an already tight real-estate. Picture in text would be better though...

  • Partial working

    Whereas I really appreciate the graphics and background, the functionality is lousy. Especially I made the upgrade and half of the functions are NOT working. Disappointing.
    Will use it for now for compatibility reasons, however if I am done with current projects I move on. I guess there are better ones out there.
