How to use the online notepad
- Type or paste into the page; the note saves as you write.
- Come back later in the same browser and your note is still there.
- Download it as a .txt file to keep a copy or move it to another device.
How autosave works
Each change is saved to your browser's local storage shortly after you stop typing. Nothing goes to a server, so the note opens instantly and works offline once the page has loaded.
Good uses
Jot down quick notes, draft emails or posts before pasting them elsewhere, keep a to-do list for the day, or clean up copied text without opening a full word processor.
Keeping notes safe
Local storage is tied to one browser on one device and is wiped when you clear site data. Download a .txt for anything you want to keep, and avoid storing passwords in plain text.
Frequently asked questions

Is there a size limit?
Browsers allow around 5 MB of local storage per site, which is millions of characters.
Will my note survive closing the browser?
