About this app

Simple Notes Sync is a calm, private home for your notes and checklists. Everything lives on your device. When you want it everywhere, it syncs to your own server - no account, no cloud, no tracking. Ever.

It stays out of your way: the whole app is under 5 MB, starts instantly, and works fully offline.

ORGANIZE
• Text notes and checklists with tap-to-check and drag & drop
• Colored folders to sort everything your way
• Pin important notes to the top
• Grid or list view, 1-5 columns
• Sort by title, date, or type

YOUR SERVER, YOUR RULES
• Sync with any WebDAV server (Nextcloud, ownCloud, and more)
• Use it across phone, tablet, and desktop
• Decide when it syncs: on save, on open, on Wi-Fi, periodically, or on boot
• Wi-Fi-only sync, VPN support, parallel transfers, self-signed SSL
• Live sync progress, smart conflict resolution, server-deletion detection

COMING FROM ANOTHER APP?
• Import your Google Keep archive (notes, checklists, labels)
• Import and export Markdown for Obsidian, VS Code, Typora
• Encrypted local backup & restore

SHARE & EXPORT
• Share notes as text or PDF
• Export to your calendar

BEAUTIFUL & LIGHT
• Modern Material 3 interface built with Jetpack Compose
• 7 color schemes including AMOLED black and Dynamic Color
• Home-screen widgets: quick note and interactive checklist
• Battery-friendly background sync

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no tracking libraries
• Your data never touches our servers - because we don't have any
• Open source (AGPL-3.0) and under 5 MB, on a modern, well-tested Kotlin codebase
