Capture & Organize Ideas
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
Connect your ideas with mind maps and detailed notes in every node. Work offline, keep control of your files, and pay once—no subscription.
Turn scattered thoughts into clear mind maps.
mappy is a focused Mac app for capturing notes, organizing ideas, studying, planning, and brainstorming. Build branches from the keyboard, give any node a full page of notes, present a map one node at a time, and keep every map as a regular .mindmap file in a folder you choose.
DOWNLOAD AND UNLOCK
Download mappy for free to explore the guided tour and interactive editor preview. A one-time in-app purchase is required to create, edit, and save your own mind maps. No subscription. Customers who acquired the paid app before version 1.1.0 keep full access without another purchase.
CREATE QUICKLY
• Tab adds a child node; Enter adds a sibling
• Shift+Enter starts a new line inside a label; Tab indents it
• Arrange nodes by hand or tidy the whole map with Auto Layout
• Every button explains itself on hover, with its keyboard shortcut
NOTES IN EVERY NODE
• Expand any node into a full page of notes
• Headings, lists, checklists, quotes, code blocks with syntax colours, images, links, and highlights
• Open notes beside the map or in the full window; find inside a note with ⌘F
FORMULAS
• Write LaTeX in node labels and notes: type $E=mc^2$ or press Σ
• Formulas render on the canvas and print in the PDF
PRESENT
• Walk through a map node by node with the arrow keys
• Jump back to the whole map at any point; the editing chrome stays out of the way
STAY ORGANIZED
• Keep maps in folders nested up to four levels, as a grid or a list
• Colour-code folders and maps; find anything with ⌘K
• Store your library on this Mac or in iCloud Drive
• Open .mindmap files straight from Finder, with icons that show each map's colour
SHARE
• Export a PDF of the map, optionally with every node's notes as selectable text
• Export your whole library at once
SAFE BY DESIGN
• Autosave, with backups of earlier versions
• If a file changes outside the app, mappy offers to keep both versions instead of overwriting either
No account. No ads. No subscription.
