Frequently Asked Questions
Where are my notes stored?
In your browser's local storage. Each note is saved to your device — nothing is sent to a server, no account required.
Will my notes sync across devices?
No. Local storage is per-browser per-device. To move notes between devices, use the Backup button (exports all notes as a JSON file) or per-note Export .txt.
What happens if I clear my browser data?
Your notes are deleted along with all other site data. Export a Backup .json first if you want a safety net.
Is the spell-check real?
Yes — it uses your browser's built-in spell checker. The Language dropdown sets which dictionary to use. Available languages depend on your browser/OS.
How many notes can I have?
Browser local storage is typically 5-10MB per origin. Each note is plain text, so thousands of average-sized notes fit easily.
Notes from the old version disappeared — what happened?
The notepad now uses versioned storage keys. On first load, it auto-migrates any old notes from the previous version. If you see the Welcome note and your old notes are gone, open this page with ?debug=1 in the URL to see the storage status.
