AsterBridge is a mind mapping app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Capture an idea, branch it into related thoughts, and watch your thinking take shape — on an infinite canvas or as a clean outline.
Plan a launch, outline an essay, organize a trip, or just clear your head. AsterBridge gives you room to think visually and the polish to share what you make.
—— WHY ASTERBRIDGE ——
• Fast to capture. Type a whole branch without leaving the keyboard: Return adds the next idea; indent and outdent from the keyboard bar.
• Canvas or outline. The same map as a zoomable canvas or an editable outline — side by side on iPad and Mac.
• Keep Tidy. Maps lay themselves out as you add, move and delete ideas.
• Native on every Apple device, synced with iCloud.
• Private by design. No analytics, no ads, no tracking.
