Mind Map vs ViewMind

Some ideas only make sense once you can see them. MindFlow gives you an infinite canvas and gets out of the way. Type your central idea, branch it out, and watch the shape of your thinking appear. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Works offline. There is no account, no sign-up, and no sync. Your maps live on your device and nowhere else — which means MindFlow works on a plane, on the subway, and in an exam hall. No subscription. The whole core app is free, with ads. Six ways to see the same idea. Free-form, radial, tree right, tree down, org chart, and fishbone (the last two unlock with one short optional video, or with MindFlow Pro). Switch and every node glides into its new arrangement — the same thoughts, a completely different perspective. Find anything. Search looks inside every map, not just the titles, and opens the map right on the idea you were looking for. Quick capture. Jot an idea from the home screen without opening a map. It lands under the central idea of the map you pick, or starts a new map of its own. Focus mode. Spotlight one branch, dim everything else, and think about one thing at a time. Present mode. Step through your map branch by branch, with zoom and highlight. Your brainstorm becomes a walkthrough without any extra work. Outline view. Every visual map is also a clean indented outline. Edit either side; both stay in sync. It is the fastest route from a messy brainstorm to a structured first draft. Fifteen templates. SWOT, decision tree, study notes, project plan, essay outline, meeting agenda, weekly planner and more — each one a real starting structure, not an empty page. Seven of them unlock with a short optional video, or all of them with MindFlow Pro. Export it anywhere. PNG, a print-ready PDF, Markdown for your notes app, a plain-text outline, or OPML for other tools. PDF and OPML each unlock with a short optional video, or with MindFlow Pro. Make it yours. Twelve colors, five shapes, sixty emoji, a note on any node and cross-links between any two. Ten map themes (five included, five more to unlock), a minimap and a real dark mode. Five plain canvas backgrounds plus five patterns — graph paper, blueprint, notebook, isometric and kraft — each yours for good after one short video, or all of them with MindFlow Pro. Your defaults, every time. Choose a theme, a layout and a background in Settings, and every new map starts that way. BUILT FOR THE WAY PHONES ARE ACTUALLY HELD A canvas that stays smooth under your thumb. Auto-save every five seconds, so you never think about saving. Unlimited maps, with stars and sorting. Works on iPad too, in 7 languages. PRIVACY No account. No sign-up. Your maps stay on your device unless you share or export them. The internet is used only for ads (and their privacy-choices form) and for the store's purchase service behind MindFlow Pro. MINDFLOW PRO One payment, not a subscription: no ads, every template, theme, layout and canvas pattern, and PDF and OPML export. Everything else works without it, and one short video turns ads off for 24 hours. MindFlow is for the moment when you have too many thoughts and not enough shape. Give them one.
