Apple on Thursday updated its App of the Week promotion with the app MindNode. This means from now through next Thursday, you’ll be able to pick up the powerful mind-mapping app on both iPhone and iPad for free—a huge savings of $10.
Mind maps are a visual representation of your ideas, starting with a central thought and growing from there. MindNode allows you to brainstorm, organize and share your thoughts in an intuitive way, so you can really focus on the ideas behind them.
From the App Store Editors’ Notes:
Big ideas have hundreds of little components. If you want to start a business, run a marathon—anything—tracking all the pieces can be tough. That’s why we’re digging MindNode. Its simple layout helps us visually connect all those moving parts, which helps us organize it all. Plus, MindNode’s got an awesome Apple Watch app, so we can always check out our ideas on the fly.
And here’s a video of the app in action:

Earlier this week, Snapchat issued a small update to its free of charge iPhone application on the App Store. Bumping version number to 9.37, the app is now optimized for iOS’s Low Power Mode which debuted in iOS 9 last year.
“When your device is in Low Power Mode, Snapchat will now automatically reduce its battery usage,” according to release notes accompanying a 96.1-megabyte download.
Snapchat developers did not specify how precisely the app itself reduces battery usage when the device enters Low Power Mode. Available as a switch in Settings → Battery, Low Power Mode helps reduce battery consumption by shutting down services like Hey Siri, Background App Refresh, Mail fetch, Automatic Downloads and some visual effects.
Apps, however, must specifically leverage Apple’s APIs to detect when Low Power Mode has been enabled in order to take full advantage of this mode.
Snapchat requires iOS 8.1 or newer and is available free from the App Store.
