˗ˏˋ The brand new Android app ˎˊ˗

Android members, you've been on our minds. Finally, we're excited to officially announce:

˗ˏˋOur brand new Android app ˎˊ˗
(iOS members, we got you too, get your app here)

We've rebuilt the Android app from scratch to make it faster, smoother and more reliable. Updates include:

✦ A new share sheet ✦

We gave this one a lot of love, completely redesigning it from scratch.

✦ New camera mode ✦

You can now take a photo via your camera and save it directly to your mind. Press the orange [+] button inside the app to access camera mode.

✦ New image zoom ✦

Tap an image inside the detail view to expand it.

✦ A new app icon ✦

We call this new custom icon “The Riddler.” It's currently an Android exclusive for our paid members.

Previous updates, just in case you missed them:

✦ New sign-in and sign-up, as well as a new onboarding experience.

✦ Improved performance: You should notice much better performance and smoother loading across the entire app.

✦ Another exclusive app icon, as well as the ability to choose from our other custom icons. Tap the hamburger in the top left to find them in the new settings screen.

✦ Many bug fixes and improvements on reliability and stability across the app and native share sheet.

Thank you to our Android members for all your support and patience. We have more coming for you soon!

It would mean a lot to us if you could leave a review on the Play store. Our current reviews reflect the old app, and it's come a long way since then ♡

This interview with perfumer, Gérald Ghislain

“We often confine people to the vision we have of them – it’s easier to deal with the world this way. Everyone fits into a pattern we’ve established and as soon as they move away from this pattern, we may end up disappointed in them or disoriented, when they’re just evolving.”

“I live on an old property out in the country where a lot of wildlife passes through. The other day, I was out in the backyard and a deer was lying in the grass about four feet from me, made eye contact and just stared at me. Whenever I can capture the calm attention of a wild animal, it feels like a compliment.”

How to make a vision board with mymind

Everyone needs a vision board.

Think of it like a moodboard for your life: A way to clarify your goals and dreams for the future.

► Watch the video

Your only rules:

1. Your vision board should be private. You shouldn't feel self conscious or pressured to curate for an audience. This is for you, no one else.

2. Anything goes. Don't worry about it being too ambitious or too weird. Whatever inspires or excites you goes on the board.

What do you want from your life? Where do you want to go? What do you want to do? What kind of environment do you want to live in?

Save it to your mind. See what patterns emerge. Think about what small steps you can take to meet your vision.

Then do it.

˗ˏˋNew & improved Wikipedia cards ˎˊ˗

For all you curious minds, we're pleased to share:

˗ˏˋNew & improved Wikipedia cardsˎˊ˗

Wikipedia links now save with more useful, consistent card previews, so you can more easily spot them in your mind.

Even better, the detail view now embeds the actual Wikipedia page, so you can read it right within the card.

For Mastermind members, Wikipedia pages are now also tagged with better, more advanced tags.

And perhaps the best part: these pages are now automatically summarized for Mastermind members as well.

As always, just search wikipedia to see all your saves in one place, or search any keyword you remember from the page.

We hope this makes a difference for your research and random late night Wiki rabbit holes.

This interview with Brian Collins

"So, here’s what I understand.

Time is a cage we’re stuck within. Fine. Now I want to explore that cage to its very limits.

And the best way to do that — and push back against the relentless ticktockticktock of the clock — is through passion. We gain absolutely everything in embracing all of the things we love."
