Frequently Asked Questions
Is my data private and secure?
Yes, absolutely! Your data never leaves your browser. Here's how we ensure your privacy:
- Local Storage: All content is saved directly to your browser's localStorage
- No Server Transmission: No data is sent to any server or cloud storage
- No Accounts Required: No registration, no login, no personal data collected
- Browser-Based: Everything runs 100% in your browser using JavaScript
- Encrypted by Browser: Modern browsers encrypt localStorage data
Your notes are as secure as your browser. They remain on your device until you clear your browser data.
What happens if I clear my browser cache?
Since this tool uses your browser's localStorage, clearing your browser cache or history will delete your saved notes. To prevent data loss:
- Download regularly: Use the "Download .txt" button to save important notes to your computer
- Export periodically: Make backups of critical content
- Be cautious with cleanup: When clearing browser data, avoid checking "localStorage" or "site data"
- Use incognito wisely: Notes saved in incognito mode disappear when you close the window
For maximum safety, download important notes before clearing browser data or switching devices.
Can I access my notes from multiple devices?
No, not directly. Since notes are stored locally in your browser's storage, they're tied to the specific device and browser you used. However, you can easily transfer notes between devices:
- Download & Upload: Download notes as .txt files and upload them to cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.)
- Email yourself: Copy notes and email them to yourself
- Use sync services: Some browsers (like Chrome) can sync localStorage across devices if you're logged in
- Manual transfer: Copy the text and paste it into the notepad on another device
For true multi-device access, consider using the download feature regularly and storing files in cloud storage.
What are the storage limits for this notepad?
The storage capacity depends on your browser's localStorage limits:
- Standard Limit: Most browsers allow 5-10MB per domain
- Text Capacity: 5MB equals approximately 2.5 million characters or 400,000 words
- Practical Limit: Far more than most people will ever need for a notepad
- Browser Variations: Limits vary by browser and device
If you approach the limit, you'll see a warning. You can always download your notes to free up space. For comparison, 5MB is enough for:
- 10 average-length novels
- 1000 pages of text
- Years of daily journaling
