As an educator, this is a breakthrough app!
I’ve sensed the potential value of mind mapping since the Apple II days, but all prior versions I’ve tried have been too complex, insufficiently flexible, or too expensive. SimpleMind is the first that gives me the power, the flexibility, and the simplicity of operation that I’ve been searching for. SimpleMind is a utility that supports the design of a non-linear approach to education and to any presentation. A map can be designed that enables any section or sub-section to be easily and quickly expanded or collapsed, on the fly. And a presenter/educator can instantly move between maps, enabling custom adaptation to the assembled group. That is the polar opposite of the linear way that most Powerpoint presentations proceed. Of course, in addition, SimpleMind can be used for all the usual purposes of mind mapping: thinking, planning, writing, and much more. My only disappointment is that the designers have chosen to use a non-conventional approach to saving and managing files, which can be confusing, even off-putting at first. Learning how they do it is explained in their quite comprehensive Help files (which are offered as FAQs).
Disclosure: I have no relationship whatsoever with the developers or their company. I am simply a very happy consumer.
