## What is Silmari?

Good mind map apps are hard to find — and the good ones are subscription-only.
Now there's an app to solve that.

Silmari will never switch to a subscription.
Buy once, subscribed for life — we come to you with that unchanging promise.


Silmari is a mind map editor that weaves scattered ideas into one clear picture.
With fast keyboard editing and automatic layout, your thoughts become structure the moment they appear.

■ Fast editing
· Tab for a child, Enter for a sibling — structure your ideas with the keyboard alone
· Drag to reorder or re-parent; move an entire subtree at once
· Multi-line text, per-node colors

■ Flexible layouts
· Right / Left / Balanced / Org chart / Logic tree
· Fit-to-screen and a live minimap for large maps

■ Rich expression
· Free relationship lines with labels, node groups
· Node notes, and link / image / file attachments

■ Multiple mind maps
· Manage maps as tabs, view two side by side

■ Save & import/export
· Local on-device storage — works offline
· Export to Markdown · Image (PNG) · Excel · JSON
· Import XMind (.xmind) — brings in structure, text, notes, and relationship lines; multiple sheets open as separate tabs
  Note: XMind's exact positions, styles, colors, images, and summaries are not imported. The map is auto-arranged in Silmari's style, so its layout may differ from the original.

■ AI helper
· A workflow that helps turn documents into mind maps (using your own AI service)

Automatic Korean / English. Start right away — no account required.

### 5/5 — 최고에요..

*2026-07-25*

그동안 여러 마인드맵을 써봤지만 기본적인 기능은 재대로 자원하는건 xmind 밖에 없었어요.
이젠 비싼 마인드맵 안써도 될만큼 기본에 충실한 앱같네요.

초심 변하지 마시고 구독제 전환하지 마세요 .

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.4 — 2026-08-14

New

• Cut nodes — available with Ctrl/⌘+X, from the Edit menu, and from the long-press menu. Cutting takes the whole branch with it, and a single undo brings it back.
• Connect to group labels — connection lines can now attach to a group's label, exactly as they do to a node.
• Move several nodes at once — select multiple nodes and drag: they follow your finger and land under the parent you choose.
• Note bubbles — read and edit a node's note right in a bubble beside it.
• Split view — place two documents side by side to compare while you work. Drag the divider or use the arrow keys to resize, or double-tap it to split evenly.
• Search inside notes — search now matches note text as well as node titles.

Stability

• Fixed a problem where a damaged document turned the screen blank. A recovery screen now appears so you can retry or clear just that document.
• A document that froze the screen can no longer overwrite your saved original. Saving is held back and the app tells you it did so.
• Fixed an unreadable document being overwritten by an empty one when opened.
• Fixed a crash when opening documents saved in the older balanced layout format.

Controls and fixes

• Fixed ⌘Z doing nothing while editing text on Mac. Editing now undoes text; the canvas undoes the map.
• Fixed ⌘Z in the search box undoing the map instead of your typing.
• Fixed Enter and Space behaving unexpectedly when a button had focus.
• Fixed the Tab key creating a new item while typing in a text field.
• Fixed Esc clearing your selection before closing an open menu; menus now close first.
• Fixed nodes not returning to their original position when a drag was cancelled.
• Fixed toolbar labels breaking mid-word and buttons pushing off screen on narrow displays.
• Fixed a slight drift after pinch-zooming.
• Improved the bottom hints and zoom controls being covered on Mac.

### 2.0.3 — 2026-08-01

• Cut nodes — available with Ctrl/⌘+X, from the Edit menu, and from the long-press menu. Cutting takes the whole branch with it, and a single undo brings it back.

• Move several nodes at once — select multiple nodes and drag: they follow your finger and land under the parent you choose.

• Split view — place two documents side by side to compare while you work. Drag the divider to resize, or double-tap it to split evenly.
