Simple Text Editor / Notes

Create and manage multiple text notes directly in your browser, with automatic saving as you type — a lightweight scratchpad for quick notes without opening a full note-taking app.

Sometimes you just need somewhere to jot something down for a few minutes — a quick draft, a snippet you’re temporarily holding onto, a list you’re building — without the overhead of opening a dedicated note app or creating a new file. This tool covers that gap: open the page, start typing, and it’s saved automatically.

Create a new note and start typing immediately — there’s no save button, since every change is saved automatically to your browser’s local storage as you go. Manage multiple notes in a simple sidebar list, switching between them freely. Rename, duplicate, or delete notes as needed, and export any note as a plain .txt file if you need to move its content elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

Are these notes synced across my devices, or only available on the device where I created them?
Only local to the device and browser where they were created, since everything is stored in your browser’s local storage rather than a cloud account — there’s no sign-in or sync involved, which is also what keeps the notes fully private with nothing transmitted anywhere.

What happens to my notes if I clear my browser’s cache or data?
Notes stored in local storage will be lost if you clear your browser’s site data for this page specifically, so export anything important as a .txt file if you want a backup outside the browser itself.

Is there a limit to how many notes I can create, or how long a single note can be?
No fixed limit built into the tool itself — practical limits come from your browser’s local storage capacity, which is generally large enough (several megabytes) to comfortably hold a substantial number of typical text notes.

Can I format text, like adding bold or headings, or is this plain text only?
This is a plain text editor by design, focused on quick and simple note-taking rather than rich formatting — if you need Markdown-style formatting with a live preview, the Markdown editor & viewer is the better fit.
