  1. 1/5Junk

    Program opens and immediately closes, unusable

  2. 4/5Clean and it appears to work.

    I have not been using the app for long. When I saw that it was free, I thought I would try it out. Thus far, it works, doesn't crash, and it a rather clean layout. I am new to mind mapping and have been looking for a good mind mapping app. This one looks like it will do the job. I give it four stars because it could use a "user guide" for the less intuitive users.

  3. 4/5Good app

    I've been looking at a number of mind mapping apps and this is the first to do a good job of cross linking. When you select a node a temporary menu shows up displaying all the links. Selecting a link will take you to that node. Even better, if the selected node is out of site, it moves you to the linked node! This is great as it makes browsing a complex map much easier. Things I'd like to see (and make it to 5 stars): Larger map Choice to not have an icon Ability to add more icons Better pinch and expand to zoom in more A browse mode that auto centers when you select a node or jump to a linked node.

  4. 5/5The best app ever for organizing!!!!!

    This app is amazing for categorizing and organizing different things, I'm using it for med school and it has been awesome. The ability to import pics, record, and put in hyperlinks is amazing! I've tried mindjet, mindmeister, and they either lacked in fluidity and/or customization this app has both. The only improvement that I would love to see is to be able to save pics when inside the built in web browser. In the current version you can only make a link but can't save pics or import them directly from the browser. Other than that, perfect app.
