Accessibility

Everyone deserves to tap into the productive power of MindNode. Here’s how we’re working to make our software as accessible as possible for everyone.

Voiceover for Your Content

Hear Your Thoughts

Whether it’s a Mind Map or Outline, you can now listen back to your work with VoiceOver. Hear your project’s title, notes, and task states — plus audio content for any imagery used, such as Visual Tags. Bonus: we also tell you on what level and in which order your content sits by adding labels like “1st level” or “1.2.1” for example.

Availability: iOS (Next & Classic) and Apple Watch (Classic)

Speak To Move

We want to give everyone flexibility in how they use MindNode. That’s why all screens are now optimized so you can navigate between them using your voice.

Dynamic Text

Words Your Way

All text in mind maps has and will always be adaptable to your choice of size and style. Additionally, you can adjust the font size in the Outline. And of course, the MindNode interface automatically adapts to your system-wide settings.

Here’s how Apple sees “Vision”.

Custom Themes

Make MindNode work for you with one of three downloadable themes: Black & White, High Contrast and Large Type. Lots of our built-in themes are also optimized for color contrast.

Availability: iOS (Classic) and Mac (Classic)

Themes

The first one is simple in black white, the second one with bubbles and branches in rainbow colors in front of an orange background, the text in the center bubble is black and says 'large type'. The third mind map bubbles and branches are in rainbow colours with a black background, in dark mode.

Focus Mode

Remove Distractions, See What’s Important

When ideas grow, it's easy to get distracted. Focus Mode puts a spotlight on one branch only. This way, it is much easier to finish your thought.

Apple provides many features to help you reduce cognitive load.

Integration

Ask Siri

When mind maps become extensive, keeping track of all the content can be challenging. With Siri and the power of ChatGPT, you can easily generate a concise summary of your document, providing you with a clear and structured overview in seconds.
