#3d mind mapping software for free
With that in mind (and given that the Steam version is available for free on PC VR with an optional one-time premium upgrade), it’s likely that Noda will be free to download and use with limitations, requiring a subscription to unlock its full capabilities. This subscription model is listed as “Noda Plus” and gives you access to premium features such as speech to text, unlimited maps and different environments. It’s likely this version of the app will be free to download, but the Oculus Store page does list a in-app subscription that will be available at $4.99/month. Given that VR is often cited as a way to increase presence and retention, it’s fair to say that Noda might provide an even stronger connection to new ideas than simply creating a 2D mind map. As you can see in the trailer embedded above, Noda lets you create a 3D space with ideas all around you, displayed with text, images shapes and links between different elements.įor those who benefit from visual learning, mind maps are a good way to quickly build a database of new ideas or links between existing ones. While other collaborative work apps cast a wide net and give users multiple virtual office features to play with, Noda is trying to capture a specific market - mind mapping and 3D flow diagrams. There’s support for both single-player and multiplayer modes, allowing you to work alone on something or bring in others to collaborate together. However, the mind mapping application will now launch on the official Quest store sometime this month. Noda has been available on PC VR platforms for almost a year now, as well as on Quest via sideloading on SideQuest since January.
