MindWoods
Mind Maps, Journals & Sketches
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New in 1.2.1: style every idea with fonts, bold, italic and three levels, drag styles onto cards, and let Auto Layout grow a tidy mind map.
Give your ideas room to grow with MindWoods. Make a mind map, keep an illustrated journal, plan a project, or collect sketches and inspiration in a garden of connected ideas.
WRITE, READ, AND CONNECT
Start with a title, then add notes and images. Arrange idea cards on the canvas, connect them with named relationships, and return to the full text when you want to read or edit. Batch entry helps you capture several ideas at once.
MAKE THE CANVAS YOURS
Combine notes with photo and hand-drawn stickers. Reuse creations from your personal sticker library, pair stickers with ideas, group objects, and organize their stacking order. Choose a theme and customize the toolbar around the tools you use most. Style each idea with classic or handwritten fonts, bold, italic, card colors and three levels, then let Auto Layout tidy up or arrange the garden by level.
KEEP ORGANIZING
Search your ideas, start from a template, and use garden history and the recycle bin to revisit earlier versions or recover content.
EXPORT YOUR WORK
Share a canvas as PNG, export a PDF with a canvas overview and complete notes, or use Markdown and JSON exports to take your work with you.
START FREE, ADD PRO WHEN YOU NEED IT
Free creation includes one garden with up to 10 ideas and selected templates. All themes, export formats, and basic iCloud features are included. MindWoods Pro is a one-time in-app purchase, with no subscription. It adds unlimited gardens and ideas, all templates, unlimited drawing (3 drawings are free), Markdown import, and on-device model summaries on supported devices.
No MindWoods account is required. iCloud features require signing in to iCloud and enabling iCloud Drive in system settings. Model summaries also depend on the system version, device, region, language, and Apple Intelligence availability.
