I do not like the "mark-down” aspect (see negative reviewers’ complaints about this) but at the end of the day it’s not that big of a deal, and the benefits of the app far far far outsrip the mark-down inconvenience, which you pretty much ignore anyway. It’s an amazing accomplishment by the developer and hugely useful for all kinds of projects, from simple to complex. This is so easy to use, and ye so powerful and so feature-rich, and still so beautiful. Outstanding! Feature-rich, easy-to-use, and beautiful iThoughts is the real deal and deserved a great review. Those pieces of input aside, I wouldn’t be deterred. It is possible now, but it seems tedious and doesn’t flow well. It would also be good if there were a better flow for being able to access documents between computers and portable devices. Much of the information that I put into iThoughts is highly confidential from a business perspective and, since docs cannot be protected, I find myself trying to figure out how I can hide them on thumb drives or whatever. The first of those is the ability to password protect documents. There are a couple of things that I think aren’t in iThoughts yet and would be important additions. This developer is very responsive with quick answers back by email to questions. I’ve probably been using it for five or six years and I have now bought this program for every device I own: mac, windows, iPad, iPhone. It’s all just so darn easy once you get the groove of it. It’s easy on the back side of that brainstorming to go back and add more organization by changing the colors of specific groups, changing the way the outline looks, etc. Once you figure it out and how it flows, it’s a great and fast tool for generating thoughts and grouping them quickly and efficiently. iThoughts is an amazing productivity tool. It’s one of the two most useful and most used apps on my mac, the other one being omnifocus. Please visit the website for more information, screenshots and videos.

One good example is Photoshop CS 6, which I've had for six years, and at the rate of their subscription service I would have paid much more for my needs.IThoughtsX is a mindmapping tool for the Mac. While it's true nothing lasts forever, I have applications that have lasted a very long time. If more “anti-subscription“ users did an honest software audit, I think they would see that while the subscription model may not work for them personally, it’s not as bad a deal as you might at first think. While I am not personally that fond of the subscription model, there certainly are use cases where it makes a huge amount of sense. With the exception of ChronoSync by Econ Technologies, I can think of no other software that comes with a genuine lifetime (of the developer) license.Īfter recently doing an audit of my own software, I found that the average life of active use of a given version of software (i.e., without having to pay more or again) was about three years. What we do is donate to/support the developer, in exchange for an undetermined amount of time that we can use that version of the app. The real truth of the matter is that we don’t own software, ever. How many of the apps you have ever bought are still supported without additional payment(s)? How many stopped working after you updated your OS version? How many were discontinued? Re: Macxpress - I get where you’re coming from, but I fear you are deluding yourself.
