I use this app all the time. It is a fun new way to organize my notes into accessible idea maps. I have a lot of ideas ranging from poetry to design projects, and scientific theories to political observations and it is easy to store them all in this app, moving branching ideas around is easy. I wish it had an audio import or record option and a backup feature or print options but it is an excellent app!

This is by far the best app I have ever used for mind mapping(and there have been many). The design makes it so simple to put your thoughts in order around centralized topics. I have been able to get a lot of projects off the ground using this app. I'm highly recommend using the sync to drop box feature so you can access your maps from anywhere.

I love the simplicity of this app. I tried some other mind mapping apps and there was so much customization to them that it was confusing and a little frustrating to figure out. However, with mindly I could jump right in with little to no turtorial. A few things I would like to see in future updates is being able to link between maps and having unlimited sub sections. If possible, adding a venn diagram option would be pretty awesome as well!

This app functions well in terms of organizing my thoughts and allowing me to build off of them. It's simple and fairly intuitive to use. One thing I would like to see is a way to interconnect different nodes. Presently, I copy a node I want to another area toget a similar effect, but it would be more convenient if there was a way to link ideas from different areas together.

UPDATE: 11/25/2018 Still using it and no issues so far! I think if we can get a few more selections for *comical* icons, this app would be even better! Yet, the icons that comes with these are still great :) Keep up the great work! ++///++ 06/2018 OLD: This app is awesome. It organizes my thoughts and stores them! It makes it easier for me to trace back something if I forget my plans somehow after a week or month. Thanks!

Very solid app. Could use a few more customization options. One being having the option of making certain bubbles viewed as lists if set as such. I have not hit the limit on elements yet, but the bar at the bottom scares me. I hope that there is an unlimited amount you can put in, and if not there should be.

I've just downloaded this app and I think it is incredible. It is easy to navigate and so far it's helped me not only organize my ideas but also add to them and make new ones. It is very helpful because I'll have a lot of great ideas but ill usually get distracted and forget them. The free version seems to give you plenty of space but when I eventually do need more i will be buying the full version. So glad i found this app!

I am a long time mind mapper and I LOVE Mindly! I can't believe the free version is so AWESOME! In less than a minute I was up and running and in half an hour, I had all my various mind maps loaded into the app (68 items!) I am SUPER EXCITED about having my mind maps with me in my phone. I use mindmaps like a to do list, so the small format wheel format works just great! 😄

This is the app I have been looking for. My organization needs are met, my projects are so much easier, and the mobility that having this on my phone affords takes loads off of my mind. I love the mindmap overhead view too! This is exactly what I needed! School projects, logic problems, creative writing, trip planning, pros and cons lists, heck - this thing even makes grocery shopping easier!!! Well done my fellows, well done!

Has room for improvement but definitely a good app, especially for the price comparison to other subscription based mind mapping apps. One thing I'd like to be able to do is put a photo in the note sections of any node rather than having to create a completely separate one for the photo to be stores in.

I've made due with the 3 free maps you get but if the pro version was like $3 instead of $5 or 5.49 I probably would have bought it. It's the best mind mapping application ive found so far. And when I got a new phone all on my things on the app were still there. idk if that's Google or the app but it was truly much appreciated. I wish there was a website or web app as well. That would be dope. Also if there was basic editing stuff like bold italics centered, etc. All in all I like it.

It is quite helpful and useful whenever I have an idea or tidbit to add to campaigns I currently am working on. All I need to do is open, add it in, and idea saved. Then I can always come back later and finalize or organize into other bubbles! It's easy to use and quite handy. Highly recommend if you have so many ideas but not sure how to live them up. Or in this case, bunch together.

This app is great. But it would be much better if you add a few things. 1. The possibility of adding pictures and videos inside the notes. 2. The support of links inside the notes. 3. Linking to Google Drive. 4. The ability to share each note individually. If i have found those things when i first installed it i would have bought it instantly. I hope you can work on those things. Thanks

What is there is beautiful, responsive and, best of all, easy. It needs more. For me, for this app to be truly fully-featured, it needs a way to "relate" two bubbles from different orbits. Really, that's the only thing truly missing. You could add more with checklists/timers, but that may detract from the simplicity.

I first bought this app on the iOS version first and loved it, but I was disappointed when I installed it on my Android phone and had to buy it again. I wondered why no one had figured out a way to have this "across devices" causing me to pay $5.99 the first time and $6.99 the second time. Prices may have changed by now. And there is no difference in the app on both platforms. That was the only negative. It helps with thought processes and steps to succeed with your set goals. Again, I love it

Simple, yet effective. Don't confuse complexity for progress and achievement. This app is simple but allows one to organize dynamic creativity in a useful manner. A suggestion to the editor, it would be perfect to have more options under notes. Specifically list boxes and possibly image insertion. Though I have not yet copy/pasted an image into notes...

Great app, but the "ever growing list of features" hasn't grown in 5 years. I would like to see more features like... * dark mode, and * better search capabilities. Specifically the ability to cycle through search results. i have started looking for an alternative since this app appears abandoned.

If you're a visual note taker like I am, this app is amazing! Easy to use, easy to organize your thoughts. It doesn't seem to be built for the notes to be very long, but you can still write your heart out. It's only the scrolling through a single note while editing it that could be better. Maybe someore colors too, but that's personal preference. Anyway, fantastic app!

Great app. Own it on Android and on my iPad. I've transferred my data between multiple phones with no trouble (between my androids). I use it for brainstorming, for creative writing and keeping track of the lore for my novels. It has the option to save to PDF, text, and image which is great. My kids enjoy it as well and it always inspires creativity. Highly recommend!

It's frustrating because a few quality of life features are missing and I love the product otherwise. I can't find an undo button, which is a must on mobile apps where you can delete a whole chunk of writing with a few errant gestures. I also can't find a way to insert images into notes. Other than these complaints, I like the concept and execution a lot and use it fairly often, but it's starting to lose me as I switch to apps with worse presentation but better fundamental features.
