FAQ

What is Nextcloud Notes?

Nextcloud Notes is a mobile application designed for creating, editing, and managing your notes. It requires access to a Nextcloud server with the Notes app installed to function, allowing for seamless synchronization of your notes across multiple devices and the web interface.

How does the synchronization work?

Once you log in to your Nextcloud server, all your notes will be kept in sync between your mobile device, other devices, and the web interface. This ensures that any changes made on one platform are reflected everywhere. Sync on startup is also an optional feature.

What kind of formatting does it support?

You can edit your notes as plain text for simplicity, or utilize markdown for rich formatting. This allows for features like headings, bold text, italics, lists, and more, making your notes more organized and visually appealing.

Can I use this app without a Nextcloud server?

No, access to a Nextcloud server with the Notes app installed is a mandatory requirement to use this mobile application. The app's primary function is to sync with and manage notes stored on your personal Nextcloud instance.

How can I export my notes?

Notes created within the app can be copied or exported to other applications or services. The app supports exporting notes in several different formats, providing flexibility in how you share or back up your written content.
