1. 5/5...but, “Mirroring” information in two places

   I’ve enjoyed XMind for quite some time. Developers are very committed to smooth experience. This is apparent in bugs, assuming they exist, being made transparent. One suggestion from my side, depending on the roadmap, that will help to keep competitive. Moving away from rigid top down structures (not how we think), apps are trying to find UXs that represent many-to-many bottom-up lookups on the back end. Some do this miserably with “tag only” systems that delude into piles of information. Others are trying to put the user closer to the database with wikis and record linking features. There is somewhere in the middle, and I think Workflowy just got close. They’ve implemented what are called “mirrors”, where an instance of information in one bullet can be copied to another bullet half way across the list. The interesting thing is, they’re linked, meaning a change happens in one place reflects in another. Anyone working with DBMSs knows this is pretty simple on the backend. However, this paradigm shift from folder systems isn’t so simple to the consumer. Mirroring is an analogy that makes sense, is simple, yet very powerful. Unfortunately for Workflowy, despite mastering the list UX, don’t have the mind map. I’d encourage XMind to find an analogy that makes sense to the consumer to “reflect” the same information’s updates in two different places on a mind map.

2. 3/5Missing Key Feature all other Mind Map programs have

   I suggested a simple solution several times and they always replied that they would considerate and add in a future upgrade. However nothing has been done in over 9 months and they are forcing me away from XMind to competitive mind mapping which all them seem to have numbers 0 to 9, so when you want a to number branches of past 7, you can. With 0 to 9 you can add Infinite numbers. XMind stopped at 7 and only have 1-7 why? It is the easy programming fix add 0,8,9 only 3 additional markers so we, the end users can number priority's beyond 7 I send screen shots from a competitive mind map that I seem to Gravitate to because of the numbering. Unless this is fixed I will be forced to cancel my subscription and stay with competing mindmapping and nowadays there ar plenty good ones. Just type in mind-mapping in the apple store. Unhappy disappointed customer Why can’t you start with a blank mind map with just a central Topic as a starting point? You have to pick from template then delete or fill in. It’s odd that’s support does not respond or address any of these reviews with comments or reply

3. 3/5Really great concept but not complete

   There is a possibility that I am just inept at working the app and I would appreciate instruction if that is the case. I need to have more control for this to really be worth my time. I would like to be able to add topics into my maps above ones that I’ve already done, sometimes i discover new information that needs to be added toward the middle or top of a map and the only way to do that is to delete things and remap. If i could move things in free space that would solve the issue. Also connecting separated topics, just because things are different at one step or another doesn’t mean they don’t have the same outcome so id like to be able to connect my boxes that have separated back into one. Finally the big one is being able to have AI build maps for me that i can edit, This is a great tool but when there’s really large quantities of information I can’t just sit there and build maps even though i would like too. If these features were added the app would be a 6 star app!

4. 5/5Photographer LOVES XMind for planning documentary

   The app is simply elegant. Very intuitive, minimalist feel but practical and with any option you would need. Refreshing to find an advanced solution for visual organization of my project that is not biased toward a large multi-office (corporate) vibe. I am currently planning an extensive documentary project. I love how I layout all facets in a SINGLE VIEW! These include subjects, concepts, locations, people, ground vs aerial/drone shots, agency reps, contacts, handlers, big ideas, questions to answer, etc. Work completed is green, work TO complete is orange, and Priority is red. For me it all happens with that little “+” or Insert button at the upper right! I have so many resources in so many places and I can literally connect everything to this one, single page! You can insert notes, labels, tasks, web links (I can copy the URL from an important Gmail 10 years ago and voila!), attachments, audio files, stickers, illustrations and photo files. With everything in one view, I can easily come to reliable realizations that certain locations are better or will be more productive toward my overall goals because more of elements are in my favor there. From study of my Mind Map - what I call the project “Vision Map” - I can generate a To-Do list of my next steps in order of priority so that I am always progressing forward. I can keep my contacts in several places as some individuals relate to a geographic area, topic, expertise and/or role. I can place my Vision Map in iCloud to open it on the XMind app when I’m traveling or away from my desk. Get XMind Mind Mapping now! Bruce Farnsworth Berkeley, California

5. 2/5Suggestion to improve

   Dear XMind Devs, I am only rating this with two stars to hopefully obtain your attention. I will definitely change it to 5 stars if hopefully I get a response. Regarding the topic of this text, I have a suggestion to improve the app. It would be really nice to have a function where I could tap on a box and see additional information regarding that box. For example, Cat (Main topic) -Ecology (Subtopic 1) -Tundra (Subtopic 1a). For students like me using the xmind, I would like to define “Cat”, “Ecology”, and “Tundra” without adding it into the box (For organizational and aesthetic reasons) instead, what I suggest is that there should be a function where I can define the word “Cat”, and while the box just sais the word “Cat”, the definition can show up only when I click on that individual box. I believe this will make the mind maps not only more organized, but also more efficient in terms of use and space! I hope these suggestions reach you! If it does, please let me know if you believe this is a suggestion you feel is beneficial? Sincerely, A fan of XMind
