Notes anywhere

- Many maps, one per project
StoryMind Put every idea down. Draw the lines later.
A big, quiet canvas for the messy part of writing. Drop notes wherever you like, drag them around, connect what belongs together, and when the shape appears, send it to Storyphernalia as cards.

What it’s like
Think on a page, not in a list
Nothing forces an order until you’re ready for one.
From map to manuscript
Send a map to Storyphernalia: each note becomes a card, in outline order. Or export a picture or a text outline.
Private by design
Your ideas are yours alone
There’s no company server holding your maps, because they never leave your device.
Stays on your device
Everything is kept in your browser on your own phone or computer. It’s never uploaded, so no one else can see your maps.
No account
Nothing to sign up for, no password to remember, and no email address to hand over.
No AI
Nothing reads or writes your ideas. Every word is yours.
No tracking
No ads, no cookies, and nothing that follows you around the web. The app has no analytics at all; this website counts page visits privately, without cookies (details). It works offline, too.

Questions
Good questions, plain answers
Does it work with Storyphernalia?
Yes. Send to Storyphernalia saves your map as a file with one heading per note. In Storyphernalia, choose Import cards and split at headings.
Is it private?
Yes. Your maps are stored only in your browser, on your own phone or computer. They’re never uploaded anywhere. There’s no account and no advertising, and the app has no analytics, so there’s no one to share them with.
Does it work offline?
Yes. After your first visit, StoryMind opens and saves without an internet connection. Adding it to your home screen makes it feel just like any other app.
What happens after the free trial?
You can use everything in StoryMind free for 14 days. After that, unlock it to keep editing. Your maps are never locked away: you can always open, export and back them up. One payment unlocks it for good on that device, and the key works on your other devices too.
What happens if I get a new phone?
Your maps live on the device you use, so they won’t move over by themselves. Before you switch, open Settings and save a backup: one file holding everything. Keep it in iCloud Drive or Google Drive, or email it to yourself.
On the new phone, open the app, go to Settings, choose Restore, and pick that file. Restoring merges with what’s already there and never erases it.
How much will it cost?
StoryMind is $14.99, one time, with no subscription. Try it free for 14 days first. No account or card needed for the trial.
What do I need to use it?
Just a web browser: Safari on iPhone or iPad, Chrome on Android, or Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox on a computer. There’s nothing to download from an app store.
