What QuikFlow is
QuikFlow is a mind-mapping and flowchart app for Windows, macOS, and iOS that creates layouts automatically as you build. Flows can converge or loop back, while the mind-map style editor supports drag-and-drop reorganization. The free version lets users view and edit QuikFlow files, use horizontal layouts, and work with unlimited nodes and connectors. It exports PNG and PDF files. Pro adds vertical layout directions, node and connector styling, built-in and custom templates, rich node content, interactive tasks, off-canvas notes, multiple inputs and outputs per node, and printing. Pro also adds OPML, Markdown, Mermaid, and JSON text exports. The free version can open and edit files created with Pro, although Pro-only features become locked after cancellation. Pricing lists a free plan, a 7-day trial, Pro at $1.99 per month or $12.99 per year, and a Lifetime plan at $29.99 per month.
