(Meta Announces Facebook Will Support Mind Map Sharing)
MENLO PARK, CA – Meta revealed today that Facebook will soon let users share interactive mind maps directly within the platform. This new feature aims to help people organize thoughts and collaborate visually.
The update is scheduled for release next month. People will find the mind map tool inside the Facebook Notes section. Users can create maps showing ideas, tasks, and connections. These maps can include text, images, and web links. Finished maps can be shared with friends, groups, or made public.
Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram, announced the news. He stated mind maps help people think better. Mosseri explained the tool fits Meta’s goal of improving online communication. He believes visual tools like this make sharing complex ideas easier.
Users can build maps from scratch. Or they can start with templates for common uses. Templates include planning projects, studying topics, and brainstorming sessions. Viewers can see the maps but only the creator can edit them. Maps shared in groups allow all members to edit together.
The feature supports real-time collaboration. Multiple people can work on one map simultaneously. Changes appear instantly for everyone. This is designed for teamwork on projects or planning events.
Meta sees this as useful for students, professionals, and creative groups. The company thinks visual planning tools are popular now. Adding this directly to Facebook makes it easily accessible. Users won’t need separate apps.
The mind map tool will work on Facebook’s mobile apps first. Support for the web version comes later. It will be available on iOS and Android devices. Meta confirmed the basic tool will be free. Potential future premium features were mentioned but not detailed.
