I love the outliner mode and wish they expand options to style add icons to topics / sub topics in that mode. Rearranging topics is easy in the outliner mode. It is a mode that is overlooked by a lot of people but there is true value in that mode.

There is a very big drawback (to me), and that's the fact that you can only have ONE top level topic as the center of your mind map. I want to have floating siblings at the top level and have their "children" interact with each other. This is possible with other tools I tried, but not with Xmind. I don't get why they have this limitation, but for me this means I will continue my search for a good mind map tool. Why post this comment? To save others some time that I had to spend to find this out.

This review is brilliant. Concise and and clearly summarized. Thank you, you really respect the viewers time. I was tired of videos full of bs. Kudos!

Thanks for this hoz . You definitely deserve many more views and subscribers than you are currently getting. Excellent content with nice humour here and there. I’m fascinated by your accent [I do voice overs for a living). I think I can hear some northern English in there, but there is definitely something from overseas as well. please enlighten me if you can.

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the walkthrough. I find it difficult that there is overview of all the mindmap files created. I really miss a toolbar on the left side, where I would be able to toggle through my notes.

I only use it for Family tree. Going as far as 30 generations! Including the their partner, ex parter, 2nd partner and their childer etc.

Good work feeling like a pro already.

I think the best thing to do is check the website as prices can change - also there may be a Black Friday offer

Thank you for the recommendation. Brilliant review. Subscribed & Notification On. Thank you. And tell me about it, these governments have no money. I see them begging on the television. In their nice houses. In the countryside. They need all the help they could get. LITERALLY.

Hi, I’m looking at starting mind mapping. I’m not finding much comparative, condensed information. I don’t have time to teach myself or trial them all. I have a wish list. Available on all platforms, I have windows pc and iPad / iPhone I would like to add sketches/ drawings/ photos and files to my maps Can I make my nodes into deeper level branches with multiple layers for more complex maps Are there any mind maps that are able to integrate with Ai? Can I sync my google drive? Can I sync my email ( I use outlook) I’m just getting started on this wish list, any suggestions would be appreciated. A short video of the above would be the dream

Hi John. Start with this playlist: XMIND 8 TUTORIAL: HOW TO USE XMIND MIND MAP kzread.info/head/PLqk2_DTMbnU3yqBN37Kk9Db4Yaz1RBnQb - that will give you the basics to do almost anything with Xmind (eve. Though it’s an older version in the tutorial, the new version works exactly the same - it’s just nicer). Re AI: I think we’ll start to see ai integration soon across many mind mapping tools - it’s early days yet. Re email Integration: I have t heard of that before. Interesting. How would you use it specifically? As for adding sketches etc that can be achieved by adding a link to your file (you’ll see that in the tutorial)

Thanks for the quick reply. I will defiantly check out those links, and some of your other vids. I’m going to add another item to my wish list, ‘Voice to text’. I am working on heaps of start up business ideas and trying to get things in a structured format that I can work through idea / research / validation / development / implementation / collaboration / realisation. I have a pretty clear idea how I think a product (mind map app ) should look like and behave, but its a massive rabbit hole to go down looking at them all and testing their features. To be honest, I am very surprised that there is such limited info/tutorials/reviews on the subject, and hardly any that is up to date (the tech space is moving so fast that 2 years info is hardly worth looking at), I will be reviewing yours btw.
