I've tried a bunch of infinite canvas apps like Freeform, Concepts, Notability, and GoodNotes, but none have resonated with me quite like Ahmni. It’s definitely my go-to now for anyone serious about learning.One standout feature is the use of kanban boards, which isn't just about organization—though it does that fantastically—but it’s also about the concept of 'spacing.' This feature helps space out your retrieval sessions, allowing enough time to almost forget what you've learned before reviewing it again. This method really helps to cement the information in your memory, a technique I find incredibly effective for deep learning.Plus, the built-in Pomodoro timer is perfect for managing study sessions. It encourages concentrated learning bursts followed by short breaks, optimizing my focus and retention.Every element of Ahmni, from its user-friendly drag-and-drop interface to its practical tools for note-taking and brainstorming, seems carefully crafted to enhance the learning experience. It’s intuitive, helpful, and makes learning not just easier but also more enjoyable.So, if you’re looking for an app that really understands and supports the way you learn, I highly recommend Ahmni. It’s more than just a tool; it’s a companion in your learning journey.

I’ve been a fan of typed mindmaps for nearly three decades (starting with Inspiration and using MindNode for years)…and they still have their uses. But freeform mindmaps are just as important in both studying and extending your mind. Creating digital mindmaps on iPads has always been a challenge because they almost REQUIRE infinite canvases. After two years, I still find Concepts’ tools cumbersome and confusing. When I found Ahmni, I was instantly comfortable with the layout and I love the highlighting options (still absent in Concepts). Whoever wrote this was reading my mind…it is so well done! I’m elated that this program exists. And the price is perfect.

I’ve used infinite canvas apps such as Freeform, and Concepts and I have to say that Ahmni is the best IF your use case is learning, and productivity. If you want collaboration or extensive drawing capabilities (brushes/pens) then this is not for you.Seemingly inspired by the iCanStudy advanced learning program this app has all the essentials for an advanced learner. The developer is responsive and committed. Subscribing was a no brainer.My main issue is that some features such Schedule and Goal Cycle require extensive typing, which is difficult and unintuitive on the iPad. When the Mac desktop version releases this will no longer be a problem for me. Even so I would rate this app 4.5/5.

The app is gorgeous. It's minimalistic, yet has all the right customizability. It works with PDFs, but the right way - instead of scanning the PDF for your notes, you start with what you're focusing on, and bring pieces of PDFs to the infinite canvas. Yes, it's not the only app which does it, but it's the combination of the effortless elegance and ability which makes it shine. I haven't had such a pleasure of playing with a new app for a long time - everything is in the right place, tunable to just my needs, and everything just works. Great work!
