Create mind maps easily

Structure your thoughts with Mindly’s powerful free mind-mapping tools

Mind maps offer an incredibly flexible and easy way to keep track of ideas and projects without tying you into a strict workflow or structure – and when it comes to mind-mapping apps, you won’t find one simpler or more elegant than Mindly. It’s ridiculously easy to use: Simply jot down your thoughts as a series of interconnected items that can be as basic as a single line of text, or as developed as text, description, and icon, complete with web link or attached photo. It’s a great way to start a project or plan.

Mindly organizes items into a multilevel hierarchy, with sub‑items orbiting their parent in a circle. Our step-by-step guide here explains how to quickly get your mind map up and running.

Once you’ve got the basics in place, you’ll start to learn all Mindly’s hidden tips and tricks – for example, you can rotate items around their parent using your finger, which is a handy way to keep track as the number of items grows.

Along with Mindly’s intuitive touches – for example, it’ll adapt how it’s displaying things to keep your notes as accessible as possible – you’ve got a mind-mapping solution to help you bring your next big idea to fruition right on your iPad.
