Mind Vector for Negative User Reviews

Much potentialThis app could be great with just a few fixes/additions. They need to allow for multiple hub items in a single map. It also needs to center correctly when building a map. It needs more color choices. It needs more view modes. It also needs a way to fix align containers so it remains orderly. Seems to have been released prematurely..Version: 4.6

Bad Support and doesn’t workPurchased the app after needing a mind map. This is one of the most simple ones. Disappointing that when purchased it doesn’t reflect that in the app. Reached out to support and created multiple tickets with no reply. Refunded..Version: 4.6

Exceedingly annoyingSeems like it might be good but virtually no functionality available without buying..Version: 1.6

A good start...I would like to use this app, but it's limitations at this point are problematic for me to use it for anything serious. The price does not reflect what you get in exchange... At this point. I am hoping that the authors will upgrade items such as: - Increasing the text field size -increasing the amount to text when you can put in a note. -increasing the visible part of the titles on the front page - allow for multiple webs in one document so when presenting you have a flow of ideas. There is a lot of potential with this app, I'm hoping to see some updates in the future..Version: 1.6

Functionality OK...output plain awfulVery frustrating app - the ability to create a basic mind map is as you'd expect but the quality of the outputs (.pdf and images) are woeful. Not impressed but little else in terms of alternatives.Version: 1.7

Poor customer serviceHave been trying to contact the company for over a week to find out why I can’t add it to my iMac without paying (already paid for it once). No reply to any emails or web forms completed. Need to use it urgently for university work. Company obviously don’t care..Version: 4.6

Couldn't even create accountApp opened with a half screen window with which I couldn't even create an account to start using..Version: 4.0

Ed WoodGood idea: useful, but needs tweaking especially with writing lists within the note attached to a node.Version: 3.9

GoodThis is very good. Keep up the good work. But it could be better if you could add pictures and zoom in and out as well..Version: 1.0

CrashesCrashes almost instantly. Didn’t work at all..Version: 4.6

Not the bestOkay, good you can add images but you can't zoom out to see the whole map and the visualiser isn't very good. Needs improving.Version: 1.5

What a waste of time.What's the point of the app being free when it forces you to pay to even create anything. The app is absolutely useless if you do not want to pay. Waste of time..Version: 1.6

Just an add for the pro versionWas wonderful for a while but now the app won't let you do absolutely anything without popping up the "pay $6 for full version." I understand having limitations to incentivize buying the full product, but this is so abrasive all it's done is made me uninstall. At least be honest and force the user to pay upfront instead of having us download an add. Or call it a "free trial", rather than a version. Maybe it's a glitch and the adds only supposed to pop up sometimes but still....Version: 4.6

KIt's k.Version: 1.0

Decent, pricy?So overall after the first couple of mind maps, I'm thinking hey this is a nice little app, but then I'm like, well what if I want this mind map in my Dropbox, or google drive, or iCloud. Well I need a subscription for that... Want to print, you need a subscription for that, want to PDF it, you need a subscription for that... At $3/month, or $30 a year, who's going to pay that, for something they use very limited..Version: 2.3.1

Nice app, but....I feel like this app would be exactly perfect for what I would need it for, but I feel like having such a steep monthly subscription for things like cloud storage and removing adds is ridiculous. Even though I feel like it's a great product, I just don't like it enough to pay that price for full functionality and will gladly use an inferior product if it comes at a more reasonable price..Version: 2.1

Paid for the ApplicationsPaid for the application and they were suppose to send a verification email and it never did. I mean it states it did but I never received it. You cannot use the application without the verification email from them. I have sent 2 requests to correct but nothing happened and then I emailed the developer and yet nothing happened. They also took my $6 for the pro versions as well and yet I cannot use the application. Ridiculous! Plus, without the email verification (I have done 3 registrations with three different emails and yet never received and a verification email. After paying for the software and trying to use the software if just spins and spins. I need to report this to Apple as a SCAM and the BBB. I hate paying for something and get nothing but troubled softeware!.Version: 4.6

Can’t link nodeNo sureI like this this app. A long user of Visio, why can’t I link two nodes together?.Version: 4.6

Registration IssueThe activation email never sent after several try and no reply from support desk….???.Version: 4.6

SUCKSHalf the time, the colour changer for the bubbles doesn't work. DO NOT GET..Version: 1.7

Won't let me upgradeSound app but can't upgrade it won't let me.Version: 4.6

Trouble with using the app.I have an iPhone X with the most recent update. The application has for some reason, became way to small to read. What am I doing wrong? It is also difficult to zoom in and out to correct the problem..Version: 4.6

Ongoing monthly feeApp seems good but the free version is very limited. You can only have 3 maps and export only as a CSV or PNG. Full version at $2 a month is too much as you may end up paying this for years and many apps each wanting a small amount each month soon adds up. I'd happily pay a one off fee for the full version and use my own cloud storage..Version: 2.1

Highly disappointedHard to work with, very slow, did it on computer and tried to sync to phone, lost half of my work on one which took forever to create..Version: 4.4

So far so goodOnly been using it 2 days. Slowly getting used to controls..Version: 1.2

Sign up neededNeed to sign up to use.Version: 2.1

Is anyone there?Downloaded then registered and am still waiting for an email to confirm so i can use app. Nothing! Not in junk, tried resend, nothing. So i gave up.Version: 4.6

RubbishNot user friendly, lack of lots of functionalities compare to other mind map app, and UI is really ugly..Version: 4.6

You have to paidIsn't free, if you want to print it or send it to your email, you will have to register more than 2 dollars a month, crazy people..Version: 1.9

Lost hours of work on a map because of a serious bugStarted briefly working on a map in this iOS app, then continued working on the same map for several hours on their web site, then went back to iOS and simply opened the map.. it instantly overwrote my latest map on their server with the first one I had started on iOS. Lost all the work I had done on the web app. Tech support is clueless, no way of rolling back the data loss caused by their iOS app! I'll be withdrawing this app from my college's list of useful tools.. no way we will risk loosing hours of work on maps because of these sync bugs!.Version: 3.6

Upgrade to enable delete?The second I opened this app, I made the first bubble for my mind map, wrote ‘hey’ as a placeholder to test it and then the second I try to delete the first bubble, I’m told I need to upgrade to the paid version to enable the delete function. I am down with the freemium model, but jeez guys, allow me to at least get started playing with some of the basic features before forcing me to upgrade. I deleted the app straight away. Not interested to see what other basic features are locked behind a paywall..Version: 4.6

Everything has to have its limits I guess.Certainly a first rate program for concept mapping, but falls short on some areas: unable to co-link cells to show relationships; unable to do branching vectors to show divisive processes; ridged cell linking mechanics, not allowing dynamic flows or complex mapping..Version: 3.4

AnnoyingCouldn't create more than one mind map without being forced to purchase the full version. Every time I opened the app, it asked me to review. I've had the purchased version for less than 24-hours; I have no idea of its functionality as of yet. I'm really just writing this review so the thing will leave me alone each time I open it..Version: 1.5

BasicOnly allows for 3 maps without paying. Not used it for much more..Version: 4.6

Free versionThe free version seems to do the trick, I need to use it more before I decide if I would spend money on the full version..Version: 1.7

Good product, bad service.Unfortunately you cannot use all the products facilities without going pro (the same with most apps!). The cost of going pro is £4.95, which doesn't break the bank but the principle still stands. Having said that, it is a great app. It has a nice design, it's easy to use, there is a great choice of colour and styles for your mind maps. You can move each aspect wherever you like. Overall, I would say it's worth it. I would definitely recommend to a friend, despite the hidden charge..Version: 1.6

CRASHESBeware this apps, will erase all your work on the iPad, I have recently paid for this app and found this problem. There is no zoom function in this app, I have reported this problem to apple, still awaiting a reply from them..Version: 1.2

Waste of timeWill only let you start a mind map then it gets you to try an buy the upgrade. Even when you click the other option "reset" instead of buy it still gets you to put in your password to make a purchase. It's a waste of time. Cannot do anything. Even if you start something you cannot go back to continue working on it or share it to anything..Version: 1.6

Can’t log in anymore.Can’t log in. Can’t register a new account, and have not got any msg’s answered for help..Version: 4.6

$15 ? Seriously?The app is so basic and it only lets you use four maps after that you have to pay. With the four maps you can not even delete any of them in the free version..Version: 4.1

Add OPML Import/Export Now!!!All your competitors have OPML Import/Export functionality. I have initially requested this function last year and you have done NOTHING about it!.Version: 4.6

Yes another mind mapI find it ok, like most mind maps you can get your thought out and group them in some kind of order. I am shore however that the more I use it the better it will become..Version: 1.6

Good but limitedSee above.Version: 1.6

Seems full of bugsDownloaded on iPad from a marketing email from developers as it looked interesting. Several formatting problems made it next to useless to work with..Version: 1.7

Pay to deleteSeriously? You gotta pay to delete maps you made? I get I could delete the pre-built map, but I couldn’t delete my own map that I made?.Version: 4.6

Un QuébécoisJe suis déçu! Inutilisable ! Bloque et ne fait que demander à passer à la version payante. Comment connaître le logiciel et savoir si c'est utile sans payer ?.Version: 1.5

Good concept but bad executionThe app and the concept is really wonderful but I purchased this app mainly because of its synchronization capabilities with the web. This does not happen and it never get synchronized between devices which is the worst. Great app and a great concept but miles to go before the app becomes perfect.Version: 4.6

I use this for an un intended purposeAfter using this for brainstorming and tracking ideas, I’ve come to the conclusion that this app works wonders to create a structured family tree that is very easy to navigate. I’d give it 6 stars for that alone. Great product. Genius idea. Highly recommend Update: got a new iPhone and went to recover my maps, and I get a promt “please activate your account from activation email sent”, but no email ever comes and it won’t allow me to log in. I’ve tried to contact customer support multiple times to no avail. At one point I got connected to a man who answered the phone as if I had the wrong number, and he told me he would look into it but he sounded like he had no idea what I was talking about.Version: 4.6

Sync problemsNot a bad App but it has limitations. Ideally you want something you can use on your PC (or Mac), your iPad and your iPhone. This App translates across all three but not precisely. If I design a Mind Map and then on the PC I change the colour of some boxes they don’t carry across to the tablet or phone because there is no facility on there to change the colours. In fact even if I change the colour of selected boxes on the PC and save the map it doesn’t save the colour change. I deleted a map on the PC but it didn’t delete them on the devices so I have two different versions. Then when I opened up the PC again the map reappeared! How many times do I need to delete it? Do I need to delete it from each device? I have to say it’s a simple to use system but annoyingly there are some serious deficits with the programming. If you’re not worried about colours and want something simple to use then this is for you. If you want to add an endless stream of emojis I’m afraid there’s only 27 to choose from and five of them are numbers (anything greater than 5 doesn’t appear). The final negative is that if you rearrange the boxes and “tidy” them up the next time you open the map they’re back to square one..Version: 4.1

Trying to steal personal information warningI purchased the app and registered my count, the verification email led back to the developer web page, but was blocked by safari. I got a message that it was a threat and was a security risk. It suggested I close the page. So I did. I tried the App Store link to the developer so I could report this, but the same thing happened. I then tried my desktop and went directly to web address in the App Store. The same warning. I’m not sure what is going on with developer website, but this issue affects access to your files from other devices, which is one of the features it offers. Hopefully this gets resolved quickly, but I had to delete the app and get my money back. This is a great app, but until they resolve this developer website issue, I have to give it a low rating..Version: 4.6

Great appFinally I can rest my thoughts knowing I won't forget them anymore. Great app....Version: 1.2

Could be usefulI tried the collaboration feature and it didn't work as advertised. The mail was sent but the map was not transferred instead , information on how to get the app was displayed even though the app was already installed in the target device. In the basic app, you can't delete old maps. I foundation out you have to use the import feature to load also shared map. So I am upping this to 3 stars. Going back to 2 stars. Any update by collaborator is not reflected in the original and vice-versa..Version: 4.6

NO SUPPORT NO ACCESS THIEVESPRO member since 2015. web app issues from the beginning. not usable after 3 months, early 2016. switched to iOS app and imported my maps. app does not recognized my login credentials. ZERO SUPPORT from developer. BEWARE..Version: 4.6

Awful in every way - AVOIDThis feels like it’s 5 years old, horrible visuals and behavior that belongs to iOS6! Already seen concept in other apps, but this one is poorly implemented, unpolished and impractical. Overpriced, definitely. AVOID!.Version: 4.6

Good functions, with annoying issueI love the functionality of this app. I used it to document the various domains of my life. The interface is intuitive and allows to arrange the shapes and connections with ease. Good mind map. Now, I don't know how, but the file name keeps on being renamed to the name of one of the nodes. In addition, the settings, such as shape position and connection line type, my mind map keeps on being reset. Maddening! It's like the app is possessed by a terror ghost!.Version: 4.2

Easy to make simple charts - lost some data when using on two devicesAn evening’s work was lost after saving and then opening on a second device. If you’re not doing this, maybe it is more stable. But I lost a bit of work so that is a little frustrating. It can make easy to view mind maps, and this is very useful. It cannot create two way links, all links are linear and where relationships can be marked, they are unidirectional. A little annoying when dealing with ideas that are interrelated and that have reinforcing effects. Still, it is quite a useful tool for exploring thoughts. Not the most powerful (no integration of lists and only a limited amount of categories I.e, clip art) available. But ok for smaller maps.Version: 4.6
