So far, so great! – Inspiration Maps™ Review

I’ve only been using this app for a day now, but I’ve used Inspiration on my Mac for a loooong time, where it’s my go-to outlining and brainstorming app. The iPad version is really proving to be quite lovely in lots of subtle ways. I don’t use the pre-fab pictures and such, just plain shapes with text in them for my diagramming. These work great! The gestures for resizing and moving things around are simple and intuitive. Adding child nodes and notes is also easy and obvious. I like the look of the diagrams and their flexibility for hiding and showing branches, for connecting things, for changing shapes after the fact, and exporting my diagrams. I would like a bit more flexibility in assigning colors (choosing more than the pre-fab colors), but that’s a really minor nitpick. I’m very happy with my Inspiration. Long may you reign!
