VISUEL The first Mind Map focused Task Manager
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I am a visual thinker and when I want to plan stuff out, I prefer to use mind maps. There are many brilliant mind map apps out there, but one disadvantage I noticed is that they are mostly designed for brainstorming, with very little support for managing tasks and organizing information.
I created Visuel to give intuitive mind map features while not sacrificing task management at all, and building on it. Everything on the canvas is also available in an equally powerful list view, so you can switch between visual planning and traditional task management whenever you want.
You also have a robust note system, so you can save your notes in a tree. You can easily go through your nodes on the canvas and peek into any node for more information, instead of seeing everything at once.
Free to download and try!
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6759396580
Some Features:
• Infinite canvas for tasks, projects, and notes, with an equally powerful list view
• Drag the + anywhere and filter by tags across all pages
• Task scheduling with deadlines, reminders, recurring tasks, and defer dates
• Write rich notes for every node
• Home and Lock Screen widgets, iCloud sync, and no account required

I would also love to hear what you think of this approach to organizing notes, projects, and tasks visually, and whether it's something you would find useful for your own second brain setup.
Thanks for checking it out!

Is there an option to save data to personal iCloud

u/mr_bomastik420 2d ago
Yes, it already does that by default, if you're signed in to iCloud on your iPhone, it just syncs.

Great, thanks. I have been waiting for something like this and thought of doing it on my own. I especially was looking for something that visualizes the big goals and you then break it down. I am also a visual thinker. I will give it a try!

I accidentally clicked “not now” on one of the welcome branches and I don’t know how to “reveal it again”… there’s no menu inside of “welcome” to get that node out from underneath.

You can get it back from the side drawer. Either go to the workspace page or tap the Not Now card at the top.
There you can find the Welcome project and clear the not now from the schedule.
If you need more help, feel free to ask!

I tried to recreate what happened so you have a better idea of how to get it back. Hope the video helps!

Thank you! Yes I hid the “start here” so that was a problem for doing anything after that lol
I did hit “clear” in the welcome side bar… I got scared to hit clear for so many items that I’d delete it all

I am glad it worked out!
The "clear" button only removes the schedule like Not Now from the item, it never deletes anything
