The honest story
We understand why you tried Ayoa.
When iMindMap closed in 2023, Ayoa was the official path forward — same company, .imx import, a familiar brand. But it came with conditions: cloud-only with no real desktop app, subscription-only with no one-time purchase, and for many, the organic branch style that made iMindMap special never fully returned.
Buy it once, own it for good — an offline desktop app, no subscription, your maps stay on your device.

FAQ
Switching from Ayoa.
Can MindBridge open my old iMindMap .imx files?
Yes — directly. MindBridge reads the .imx format and reconstructs your map: branches, notes, links, images and tasks. Your original file is never modified.
What about maps I made in Ayoa itself?
Export them from Ayoa to a standard format such as FreeMind (.mm) or OPML, then open the file in MindBridge — we open those directly.
Is there a one-time purchase, like iMindMap had?
Yes — the Recover licence (£79 one-time) and Everything (£149 one-time) are lifetime purchases. No subscription, no cloud requirement.
Which platforms does MindBridge support?
macOS and Windows desktop, fully offline.
