The alternative file formats have been created with iThoughts HD for iPad (.ITMZ file format). I reworked this map in August 2013 after using this stability wonder for about 10 months.įeel free to download this map from my Box account. This mind map, created with iThoughts, shows all features of the app. So it’s time to again review this app after all the useful updates it got over time. In many articles about mind mapping I always talked about iThoughts as the most powerful tool for the iPad. The result of following these simple rules convinces everyone and is the ultimate way to success. Must play nicely with existing tools/services. If it’s not usable then people will not use it. The roadmap for iThoughts is pretty much driven by customer request – although there are some ‘core principles’ underpinning the whole thing as follows: On the right side you will find all features needed for editing a map. On the left side there are file management features and settings. To use the app a documentation is basically not needed.įor example there is one and only one taskbar which is divided into two parts. And, although people might not be aware of human interface design principles, such as direct manipulation or consistency, they can tell when apps follow them and when they don’t. For example, when an app fits well on the device screen and responds to the gestures that people know, it provides much of the experience people are looking for.
People appreciate apps that feel as though they were designed expressly for the device. In so far there is indeed a virtual connection between Steve and Craig. In his lecture about mind mapping on Biggerplate Unplugged (London 2013), Craig called it Touchy Feely Mind Mapping.Ī mind mapping tool is an application for improving knowledge and personality as well as summarizing important facts and ideas. It’s not only an excellent coding but also a deep insight in what Apple intended to offer it’s customers. The article below is about the old version which is no longer available in Apple’s App Store.Ĭraig Scott started developing his mind mapping tool already before the iPad was launched in April 2010.
A new version of iThoughts was launched on May 2, 2014.
