Frequently asked questions
Where are my notes stored?
In your browser's local storage on this device. They persist across visits in the same browser but aren't synced to other devices or the cloud.
Will I lose my notes?
Notes remain until you clear them or your browser's site data. Clearing browsing data or using private/incognito mode will remove them — download anything important.
Is there a length limit?
Local storage typically allows several megabytes of text, which is far more than most notes need.
Are my notes uploaded?
No. Everything stays in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
