I'm searching for a free mind-mapping software for both Windows and Android. It should be able to sync my mind-maps across all devices.

The only feature that is a must-have (basically what every piece of software of this kind does) is that it should be able to create and arrange cloud-graphs.

There are several ones, like Simplemind, Mindjet, etc., but it looks like there is none which is completely free for mobile and desktop. Does anyone know one?

    Not for Android, but Xmind is great on Windows xmind.net and free for normal levels of use

    Thank you, but it has to be cross-platform. I've used Freemind - it's also great on Windows but no mobile version.

Mindomo and MindMeister both have free Android apps, and they give you up to three free online maps at any one time. Both can be run from Windows in a browser to access the same maps. MindMeister is my preferred one.

If three maps is not enough, and I guess it won't be, you could try some of the all-free, browser-based ones to see how they work with touch on the Android. Try Coggle (I reviewed it here: http://www.mind-mapping.org/blog/2013/09/coggle-it/ ) It's multi-user, with chat. Or MindMup, review: http://www.mind-mapping.org/blog/2013/11/mindmup-browser-based-free-easy-and-open-source/

  • I guess I'll accept your answer, tried Coggle and I think I'll go with it. I didn't want to use a browser-based one, but since it works fine with Chrome on Android it might work out. Thanks!

    Update on Coggle (coggle.it): as of today it offers for free 3 private diagrams + unlimited public ones
