About this app

Notepad is a small and fast notetaking app for making notes, memos, or just any plain text content. Features:
* simple interface that most of the users find easy to use
* no limits on note's length or number of notes (of course there's a limit to phone's storage)
* creating and editing text notes
* importing notes from txt files, saving notes as txt files
* sharing notes with other apps (e.g. sending a note by email)
* notes widget allowing to quickly create or edit notes, working like post it notes (stick a memo to home screen)
* backup function for saving and loading notes from a backup file (zip file)
* app password lock
* color themes (including dark theme)
* note categories
* automatic note saving
* undo/redo changes in notes
* lines in background, numbered lines in a note
* technical support
* search function that can quickly find text in notes
* unlock app with biometrics (e.g. fingerprint or face recognition)

It may be obvious, but notes in the app can be used in many ways. For example as a to do list to increase productivity. A sort of digital planner to store shopping list or to organize the day. Notes can be put on the home screen as reminders. Each task could be stored in a seperate note or one big todo note could be used.

** Important **
Please remember to make a backup copy of notes before formatting a phone or buying a new phone. Since the 1.7.0 version the app will also use phone's device copy, if it's turned on in the device's and the app's settings.

* Why do I advise to not install the app on an SD card?
I follow the official advice to block installing on an SD card apps that use widgets. This app uses widgets, which are like icons for the notes, and can be placed on a phone's home screen (for example).

Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app for over 3 years. I can make & save shopping lists, Christmas lists, recipes, to-do lists, etc. I love this app!! I'm not a computer savvy person but it's easy enough for even someone like me to figure out how to share any one of my pages with family and friends. The Good Lord Willing, I plan on using this app forever!!! :) :) :)

This is more of a question than a review… I’ve been using this app for years, and I love that it automatically saves everything, as I go from task to task, without having to “Save” it. Today I wrote down some important notes and switched to another task. When I returned, my notes were GONE! UGH. Is there anyway to recover them? Samsung had a new awful update that changed my entire phone that I am still trying to deal with. Could this be part of the problem?

I do love this app. I've been using it for many years now. Simple, easy, no excessive bells and whistles. I wish the app stores had a category for "apps for old people who didn't grow up with computers." So many apps I try to download load now I turn right around after a couple of days and delete. There are so many functions, which I'm sure some people love, that I can't just easily use the few I want.

What’s new

Update 1.42.0:
+ note categories and colors included in backup copies
+ fixed note categories list issues
