iPad App Review: MindMash

When you need to jot down a quick note, reminder, grocery item, or something, the iPad has the default “Notes” app that comes with the iPhone OS. What if you need to capture more of an overall idea that needs something more than just a quick note? NumLock Solutions has something that might help: MindMash.

MindMash gives you the ability to type notes and add pictures to a “sheet”, and then move them around by tapping and dragging the items around the screen. Much more intuitive than the cut/paste method we’re all used, this really makes it easy to lay your thoughts out in front of you, and organize and reorganize as you see fit.

MindMash is a brainstorming & note-taking application for the iPad. It allows users to create an ideas mash-up by combining and manipulating text and images on the iPad in a visual and free-form manner.

MindMash turns the iPad into a canvas of ideas for students, bloggers, writers, designers, and other creative individuals. Users can add text and images (called ‘bits’) to a sheet or several sheets and use these bits to compose visual outputs for personal or professional use. It aids in the creative process by making use of a free-form layout for the sheets as well as helps in efficiently organizing thoughts and ideas by allowing users to easily edit bits of data.

With MindMash, you can:

- Organize notes and thoughts easily and creatively
- Add text and images to a sheet
- Resize images and adjust text area through pinching
- Replace images and text by double tapping
- Drag around bits of data to manipulate layout

MindMash is a canvas for your ideas.

I really like this app. Just as it says, it is really easy to organize your to-do lists, home projects, etc, into a clear concise path, to put your mind at ease. It is very easy to use; just add a new sheet, then add text and photos anywhere on the sheet. Then just tap and drag your items into the order you need.

I would definitely recommend this app for any iPad owner out there. It is like having an enhanced “Notes” app. MindMash is available now, in the App Store, for FREE! Go get it now!
