I bought 4.0 six months ago for full price. Even though it's worth it, I'll stick to 4.0 for now on. Don't want to pay another chunk for a small upgrade.

4.x will continue to work 👍 if you change your mind, you can try MN 5 for free for 2 weeks and as a previous customer you are eligible for a discount. MN 5 is far from a small upgrade, it's been in the making for over 1.5 years and especially on iOS we rethought every aspect of the app
I love where this project could go. Can't wait to try it out. Have you considered a dark mode theme?
Maker
Hi Jim, we don't have a full dark mode, but we do have a dark mode on iOS that is auto-applied, if you open a theme with a dark background. Try it, it's gorgeous :)
Congratulations on the release. Do you have a page that compares v2 and v5.
Maker
not a comparison, but here are our release notes of v5 (hint: they are long ☺️): macOS: iOS:

I using MindNode many years now, every time it's a great experience!

Thanks for making the software guys!

Pros:

UI, Delightful product, the BEST.

Cons:

lack of watchOS version! joking! :P no cons!

Still use and very much love the 2.5.7 version which I am on currently. This is a nice upgrade. Wonder if I am feeling itchy about the upgrade.
Maker
The new version offers a Trial so that you can test drive the app for some time. If you decide to stay on the old version, you can still open and edit all documents that you created or modified with the Trial. (Some of the new features like Top-Down layouts are reverted when you re-open with MindNode 2.5.7). We also offer a discount for existing users. The details can be found in the FAQ section of our support page:
Thanks Thomas! Will take a look. Like I said, I was feeling tempted / itchy. Whatever you want to call it ;-)

I've been using MindNode for writing - have for years. I find moving branches of text is much easier than cutting and pasting in a text app. Great for mindmapping

Pros:

Write the way you think

Cons:

Built-in "Idea Sandbox" theme is missing

Mac version only works with the latest MacOS (10.12/Sierra or later)
Just downloaded to use for a corporate visual asset audit. Beautifully designed. Loved the UX as well. However, it appears there is a very troubling bug that locks up my Mac and forces me to hard button reset when I double click a node to edit it. Has happened 4 times now 😭
Maker
Hi Shane, thank you for the kind words and sorry to hear that there seams to be a problem. Can you maybe contact with any information you have about the issue you are seeing? We didn't receive any bug report similar to this so far, so it would be really interesting to see what causes this bug.
this app was installed on my machine without my consent , its impossible to remove and mindnode do nothing, it acts like a virus and prevents certain functions on your mac. avoid at all costs , please note mindnode have been told atleast 5 times of this problem and are really not interested in helpin so i am forced to post here
