What is MeisterTask?

MeisterTask is a secure online task management tool that integrates with MindMeister via the Meister Suite. Use MeisterTask in tandem with MindMeister to turn your brainstorming sessions into actionable tasks and to-dos.

 

In order to link and create tasks in your notes, you'll need to be logged in to both MindMeister and MeisterTask (with the same account). Users of MeisterTask Basic can create and manage three projects completely free of charge.

   Tip

   If you don't have a right mouse button, select the topic and click the ellipsis (...) which appears.

2. Click the Actions icon.
3. Click Task.
4. In the next windows, choose a project, section and assignee for your new task.
5. Your new task is now created in MeisterTask. Changes made in MeisterTask will also be immediately synced to your mind map.
