Description

Envisioned for the age of collaboration, experience mind mapping and outlining like never before in the all-new MindNode.

MIND MAPPING
Capture and visualize all your thoughts using mind maps on a truly infinite canvas. Create new ideas using our unique node well. Mind maps are great for brainstorming, problem-solving, or planning any project.

OUTLINING
Organize and re-structure your ideas using an outline. The linear structure makes them perfect for drafting, research, agendas, or learning. Easily switch between mind map and outline view depending on your creative process.

COLLABORATION
Built on a new foundation, brainstorming with others has never been easier. Collaboratively work on your next big idea and always stay up to date. See how others are enhancing your shared document in real-time.

MindNode is available on Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro. Your documents are managed directly in the app and are securely stored in iCloud. They sync automatically, and even when you work offline, changes are later seamlessly merged.

FREE EDITOR
Use MindNode for FREE to capture your ideas as mind maps, with actions like editing, rearranging, and folding. Documents are also synced to all your Apple devices, and all import and export options are available, so you are never locked in.

Love this very promising app!

Just the brain storm area makes this app worth supporting! So, Bravo - I’m in! It helped my old brain the first time I tried it. Keep going! I love what you’ve come up with so far!

No really taking advantage of Spatial environment

I’ve been waiting a long time for a Mind Mapping tool that was 3 dimensional that could be utilized in an open environment. It’s a shame that this wasn’t the case with this one. Future Functionality I’d be expecting would be 3 dimensional mind mapping, the ability to color the border of the Mental/mind nodes and connecting string/line. The ability to expand upon a node to open up a secondary and tertiary mind map (each one that is expanded is highlighted while the tree above it fades into background)

Developer Response ,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I understand your wish for a more 3 dimensional mode, however in our experimentation we never managed to find a good working solution that made sense. This is why we settled on a brainstorming approach that's similar to "moderation cards" that you can pin to a wall and group together.

Collab ability, at last!

As a long term Windows user, I was completely sold on MindNode as soon I was introduced to the Apple ecosystem and specifically, Mindnode. The ability to mind map fits so well with my thought processes and perhaps slight ADHD tendency? The ability to get thoughts quickly captured then shuffled, along with the real time sync across devices is huge for me. The glaring missing feature to date has been the ability to collaborate with my thought partners. Problem solved with MindNode Next! I have been using it since it came out yesterday with no issues. As I have multiple MindNode files for difference focus areas,I have been looking the Files > Open Recent drop down option. It may be tucked somewhere I am not looking, but if it is not the product yet, it would be a helpful addition.

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review. It’s great to hear that you like our new collaboration features. Good point that Open Recents is currently missing. It’s on our roadmap to add it, together with opening recents from the dock menu, in an upcoming update.
