PaperNote: Notepad & Notes

PaperNote is a clean, fast notepad for everything you need to write down — quick thoughts, shopping lists, meeting notes, plans and sketches. No account, no sign-up, no clutter. Open the app and start typing.

Every note begins the moment you tap New. The first line becomes the title automatically, so there is nothing to fill in before you can write.

WRITE THE WAY YOU THINK
• Rich text with Title, Heading, Subheading, Body and Monospaced styles
• Checklists you can tick off as you go
• Tables with rows and columns you can add as you need them
• Photos from your gallery or straight from the camera
• Freehand drawings and sketches in a built-in canvas
• Undo while you edit, so a mistake is never permanent
• Optional lined or grid paper backgrounds if you prefer writing on ruled pages

STAY ORGANISED
• Folders to keep work, personal and project notes apart
• Pin the notes you open most to the top of the list
• Sort by date edited, date created or title
• Group notes by date, or turn grouping off for one simple list
• Switch between a compact list and a gallery grid
• Search every note instantly, or search by voice
• Browse all your photos and attachments in one place

QUICK ACTIONS
• Swipe a note to pin, share, move or delete it
• Long-press for a preview and the full set of actions
• Duplicate a note when you want to reuse its structure
• Share any note to your other apps as plain text

NOTHING LOST BY ACCIDENT
• Deleted notes go to Recently Deleted and stay recoverable for 30 days
• Restore a note and it returns to the folder it came from
• Optional confirmation before deleting

KEEP PRIVATE NOTES PRIVATE
• Lock individual notes with your fingerprint, face unlock or screen lock
• If your device has no screen lock set up, use an in-app passcode instead
• Locked notes hide their contents in the list and never appear in search results

MADE FOR YOUR PHONE
• Light and dark themes, following your choice
• Voice dictation, so you can add a note without typing
• Adjustable preview length in the notes list
• Simple, uncluttered design that stays out of your way

YOUR NOTES STAY ON YOUR DEVICE
PaperNote works completely offline. Your notes, photos and drawings are stored in private storage on your phone. There is no account to create and no cloud sync, which also means your notes are not backed up anywhere — keep that in mind before switching phones or uninstalling.
