Really?

Instead of forcing people into getting this app, maybe you should actually make a version people would want to pay for and give them the option. You have had loyal users and now you want to force those loyal users into paying $34 a year? Make an upgrade option with actual good features and maybe people would pay for it then. Will be deleting. Very disappointing.

Very helpful.

Helps me get everything in one place so visually.

No export feature

I used Mindly 1 and love the concept. However there is no option to export in text or poll as in v1

Why

I can’t create anymore in the old app without getting the new app, but now I have to pay for the new app?! I don’t usually complain about this stuff, and I have never left a bad review on anything. But someone in charge needs to know that THAT is way too much money to pay for something I can do on a piece of paper. The only difference between this app and a pen and paper, WAS(emphasis on the was) that it is more convenient and takes up less space then carrying a notebook everywhere. Now, becuase of the changes made, I would rather carry the notebook. I LOVED the old app. And now I will never be able to use it again.

Paid once and now they want me to pay again - no way

I bought Mindly and use it occasionally.

I came to use I and was forced to get Mindly 2 that is now a subscription. I did not agree and I did not put a time limited licence.

I will now delete the App and made a note never to buy anything from this developer again.

Ps please can you refund me my original purchase price as you’ve unintentionally terminated our agreement.

Annoyed

Honestly, just annoyed that I gotta see an ad for this every time I open the original app. Upon downloading, it’s clear you got a subscription model on the 2nd. So basically, I don’t want 2, but I have to be punished with the ad for it now. Classy, guys.

Edit. Oh, wait, no. You don’t even get to use 1. They just killed it. Trashy company. I hope this rots.

Looks like it will too. One review above 1 star? And it’s probably a family friend or something…

Failed to create an account

Why the app is made live when no one can create an account or login ? Tried few times in last few days but status is same which shows developer is not looking for feedback or upgrade by removing bugs and make user experience smooth.

Shady practices

Deleting the original mindly app and wiping out my data when I had paid for the app is a shady practice that needs to be highlighted.

stupid

7-day free trial??????? the app is supposed to be FREE for EVERYONE. no one needs to pay money for mapping their mind. cash grab freaks

Scam!!!

If you have problems I need to contact the developper, good luck! It is impossible! All they have is a FAQ, and if your problem is not there, well tough (which is my case) I have tried to find a way to contact them without success, so I was pushed to write a review. I have bought the "lifetime" of the first version of Mindly which I was using until I got a new phone a few days ago. They decided to release the second version and the previous version is no where to been seen. ( so they could push people into subscription mode?) As this app still exist and has only been upgraded and the do called "lifetime" subscribers have no access to it is appalling. It is absurd that this apps can get away from selling lies. Not worth any stars. I'm scratching my head as why does it appear 5 stars in app search, when the only review before mine is 1 star.

Do Not Trust your info to this app

I bought the app and used it for years, keeping an important set of notes. They wanted more money, so they killed the app. I lost my notes.

Do Not Trust this app with anything important.

Cannot sign in with Old mindly credentials

Same as title

Downgrade

Much worse than the original, with less features. I paid for the original because I thought it was a good app that was worth the price, but this one is definitely not worth the cost. Just go for another app instead.

À fuir ! C’est du vol !

Ayant payé la première application, depuis la sortie de Mindly 2, je n’ai plus accès à l’application
À fuir ! C’est du vol !

Ou es l’application que j’ai achetée?

Aujourd’hui j’essaye d’ouvrir Mindly (précédente version) que j’ai payé. Et impossible, message d’erreur. Impossible non plus de la retrouver sur l’AppStore. Je travaille dessus depuis plus de 3 ans. J’ai tout mon travail, mes notes, mes idées. Je ne peux même pas récupérer mes fichiers qui sont enregistrés sur l’application . Je ne parviens pas non plus à vous écrire. S’il vous plaît, pourriez-vous rétablir l’ancienne version? Me contacter pour que je puisse récupérer tout mon travail que je vais devoir rendre très bientôt et qui représente des mois de travail et de réflexion?

Merci d’avance 🙏

Mindly

J’ai payé et je ne peux plus utiliser l’application sans devoir prendre l’abonnement

Mindly is dead

L’ancienne application Mindly était en disponible en achat unique, n’est plus disponible sur le store même pour les personnes ayant payer. Plus sur cette V2 vous est obligé de payer un abonnement, de créer un compte et c’est bourré de trackers pub. Une régression en tout point. Fidèle à la tendance actuelle. Sans moi.

Extreme disappointment

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment regarding the recent update to Mindly, which has transitioned from a free service to a mandatory paid subscription model. Not even sure how to get to my data since the original app no longer works.

Response from developer

Thanks for sharing your concerns — we’re really sorry for the confusion and frustration this caused. To clarify: Mindly 2 is a completely new, separate app, rebuilt from the ground up. It uses a new cloud-based architecture (sync, sharing, collaboration, and future features), which is why it has its own app listing and a subscription model to support ongoing development and infrastructure. The original Mindly app has not been converted into a subscription. If you previously purchased the lifetime version, your purchase is still valid in the original app, and your data remains there. You can re-download the original Mindly from the App Store → Profile → Apps → My Apps → search Mindly.

Fewer features than the original

I’m scratching my head trying to figure out why the developer removed many features from the original app for version 2 , including the entire ipadOS support, and is also now charging for it ? I’m fine with paying for it but why, when it’s a step down from v1 which I relied on for years?

If you have the original app, don’t delete it , because you can’t find it on the store anymore and version 2, as I mentioned , is bereft of features and the dev wants 35 dollars for a year subscription for it. My question is : why

Abonnement racket

Soyons sérieux. L’application est utile. Mais il ne faut pas abuser et tomber dans le mode « vampire » de l’abonnement (type racket).
Retirez cet abonnement, et l’on pourra le recommander avec plaisir.
