Mindly (mind mapping)

Come on guys. Pls.

Beautifully done. There’s rlly no need to get premium as it doesn’t unlock many features that you actually need or want

Here’s the real on this app: the free version is great but limited. Similar features but you can only make a few mind maps. Once you fork out a couple bucks for the paid version, you can creat unlimited mind maps and truly unlock your brain. Now, I’m not saying this app will make you rich or successful, but it sure helps a lot if you need to map out your mind. Got a lot on the brain? Make a mind map. Have a complex assignment or business plan? Make a mind map. Great for all of that, making outlines, and just generally organizing your life. And the more you do it, the quicker you get and the better this app can work for you. Highly recommend!

I have the free version of this app. It seems to allow any number of maps but each map has a limited number of nodes. I’m not sure how many because there is no count or indicator but there is a progress bar. I estimate maybe 50 nodes per map on the free version. I don’t think there are any ads, which is great. The visual interface is clean and pleasing, with a variety of muted and bright colors to assign the nodes. I like this circular way of displaying nodes and edges, especially on smaller screens, well done. Navigating the map is also very satisfying. Other apps sticking to the class tree/web don’t appeal to me at all. The vertical tree/bullet point style of some apps is nice but doesn’t have the same appeal as a more freeform structure. The app covers a minimal set of simple functionalities: add/remove/copy/move node, view parent/child, change color of node, change size of font, even rotate nodes. It does not, however, allow you to link a node to more than one other node, which is disappointing. I can’t seem to delete a map either. It will probably cover 70% of use cases, which is why I rated it 3 stars (pretty good). For 4 stars (great), I would expect: 1. Ability to define more edges between nodes 2. Ability to resize individual nodes 3. Text formatting like bold, italic, underline, strikethrough 4. Ability to move a cluster of nodes to another place on the canvas (right now you can only move a node to another group of nodes, i.e., assign that node a new parent) 5. Pinch to zoom when viewing individual nodes 6. Ability to organize maps into folders For 5 stars (excellent): 1. Embedded checkbox feature that allows nodes to be treated as tasks (does NOT require calendar integration because good lord not everything needs to do everything) 2. Markdown formatting for notes 3. More color palettes 4. Option to assign a short name so text doesn’t get cut off in small nodes Based on the version history, this app is not updated very often. Maybe it’s a pet project. If it is, it is a really great one. As a product, there are several ways it could be improved, and I really hope the dev provides them eventually!! Thanks for creating such a nice and affordable tool!!

I’m an individual with D.I.D. (Dissociative Identity Disorder). This app has really helped me map out my headspace!!

No b.s. great app without the bait and switch tactics of others. Love that the app has a stand alone purchase and is not a subscription based app. Perfect for organizing my thoughts. Thank you mindly team for a great app!

I ABSOLUTELY love this app. Its perfect for any and all types of organization, but I have a few problems, mostly appearance based! I wish it had more colors and emojis to choose from, and I also would love for it to have a dark mode.

This app is remarkable with helping me organize my thoughts. While using this app, I’m able to memorize my studies faster. Very appreciative. Thank you
