User Reviews

Users appreciate TheBrain's unique mind mapping capabilities and its strong desktop version, along with cloud syncing and mobile access. However, the Android app suffers from performance issues including frequent crashes, sluggishness, and problematic synchronization leading to data inconsistencies. Many key features available on desktop are missing or poorly implemented on mobile, such as search, note editing, and link handling. Usability issues like keyboard failures, password input problems, and UI limitations further frustrate users. Overall, while the concept and desktop counterpart are praised, the Android app needs significant stability and feature improvements.

Pros

The app effectively complements the desktop version, allowing syncing thoughts between devices.
Offers a unique mind mapping experience with nonlinear relationships, surpassing other mind mapping apps.
The desktop version is intuitive, user-friendly, and greatly assists in life organization.
Cloud sync feature enables synchronization of data between desktop and mobile.
Mobile access allows managing and checking thoughts on the go, making the app more versatile.

Cons

Frequent crashes, especially when editing notes or opening brain data sets, making the app unreliable.
Poor performance and sluggishness on various Android devices, including phones and tablets.
Synchronization and cloud sync issues causing data inconsistency between devices; brains created on one device often not visible on others.
Incomplete feature set compared to the desktop version, missing basic functionalities like search, adding links, and better UI design for mobile.
Bugs like keyboard not appearing for notes, inability to enter full passwords, images not displaying in notes, and auto-capitalization that can't be disabled discourage mobile use.

Recent reviews

This used to be great, and now it appears to no longer be supported. No updates and lots of crashes. Have to stick with the desktop version.

Update: changing review from 2 to 3 stars. Admittedly, there have been a few (minor) improvements, bug fixes, etc. over the past 4 years, but nothing that convinces me to keep using this app; it still feels quite sluggish. Most importantly, the key feature, i.e. plex visualization just doesn't seem to tranfer well to mobile devices: thoughts are squeezed in 1/3 of the screen in portrait mode, even worse when turning to landscape. I'm not UI design expert, but there's got to be a better way...
