How does this work?

All data is stored in your browser's local storage automatically and is never sent to our servers. If you come back to the site with the same browser, your notes will be here waiting for you. It's a simple, private alternative to cloud-based note apps that require accounts and sign-ups.

Where did my notes go?

If your notes have disappeared, you may have cleared your browser's storage or cookies. If you regularly clear browsing data, make sure to uncheck the option to clear site data to keep your notes safe. Using private/incognito mode will also prevent notes from being saved.

Why Use an Online Notepad?

An online notepad gives you instant access to a writing space from any device with a browser. Unlike desktop applications, there's nothing to install or update. Whether you're at your computer, on a tablet, or using your phone, your notepad is always one click away.

Online Notepad is perfect for quick notes during meetings, drafting emails, jotting down ideas, keeping a to-do list, or saving text snippets you need later. It's the simplest way to capture your thoughts without the overhead of a full document editor.

Use Cases

  • Meeting notes and minutes
  • Quick to-do lists and reminders
  • Drafting emails and messages
  • Saving code snippets and commands
  • Journaling and daily writing
  • Brainstorming and idea capture
  • Temporary clipboard for text
  • Writing essays and articles

Need More Features?

Try the Advanced Editor for rich text formatting, multiple notes with a sidebar, note search, and more. It's ideal when you need to organise longer content or manage several notes at once.

You can also use our text case converter and other online text tools to transform and format your text.
