Muse: Tool for Thought on iPad [Sponsor]
A new professional app for the iPad launched last week. It’s called Muse, and it turns your iPad into a tool for thought.
Muse gives you a spatial canvas for your research notes, sketches, screenshots, PDFs, and bookmarks. File managers and note-taking apps put your content into sorted lists and grids. By contrast, Muse is inspired by your desk: personal, creative, even a little messy.
You can pull in documents and clippings from iCloud or Dropbox, your iCloud photo library, or drag-and-drop from other apps. Use your Pencil to draw on, around, or in between everything, discovering and making connections between ideas as you go. And the zooming interface allows you to nest all your content to create a beautiful, explorable knowledge garden.
Muse is $99.99 per year, but you can try it for free with up to 100 cards. It’s a terrific way to dig in and understand how Muse can help you organize your projects.
Download Muse from the App Store today. Because deep thinking doesn’t happen in front of a computer.
Our thanks to Muse for sponsoring MacStories this week.
