How we protect your notes

How it works

Start in seconds

  1. Start writing

    Open the editor and type. No e-mail, no password, nothing to install — your first note is saved as soon as you write it.

  2. Write your first note

    Jot down an idea, a list or a plan in a clean, distraction-free editor.

  3. Keep it, or make it yours

    Come back in the same browser, or save the private link to a note. When you want folders, pictures and more than ten notes, create a free account and attach everything you already wrote.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Read all the questions
Can I use MyNout without signing up?

Yes. Open the editor and start writing. You can keep up to 10 notes without an account, including anything in the trash. There is no e-mail, no password and nothing to install.

How do I get back to my notes?

In the same browser you are usually brought back automatically. Because that depends on data your browser can clear at any time, each note also has a private link you can save — and you can attach everything to a free account whenever you like.

How long are notes without an account kept?

180 days from the last time you opened or edited the note. Opening it resets the clock. Someone reading it through a share link does not. Anything you move to the trash is deleted for good after 7 days.

Is it really free?

Yes — create an account and use all the core note-taking features for free. No credit card and no trial limit.

Are my notes private?

Your notes belong to you. They are protected by your account with optional two-factor authentication, and we never sell your data. If you want more, turn on end-to-end encryption: the notes you encrypt can be read only with your passphrase — not even by us.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. The app runs in any modern browser on your phone, tablet and computer, and your notes stay in sync across all of them.

Can I share notes with other people?

Yes. Share any note with a private read-only link, or invite people by e-mail to view or edit it together.

Can I export my notes?

Anytime. Copy a note as Markdown, download it as Markdown, plain text or PDF, or download all of your notes, folders and tags in a single file.

Do I need to install anything?

No. There is nothing to download or install — open the app in your browser, sign up and start writing.

Can other people edit my notes?

Only if you let them. Share a note with a private read-only link, or invite specific people by e-mail and choose whether each can view or edit. You stay in control and can revoke access anytime.

Can I get my notes out — or delete everything?

Always. Copy or export any note as Markdown, plain text or PDF, or export all of your notes, folders and tags at once. Your data is yours — you can take it with you or remove it whenever you like.
