What's New in Nextcloud Notes

33.0.1

May 6, 2026

Bug fixes and improvements.

User reviews

Broken Sync

I’m never able to actually use this with Notes in my Nextcloud instance, which is really frustrating.

It works

Speed is not perfect for me, but I see some improvements regularly

Tired of the app randomly emptying my notes

I've been having this problem off and on now for a few months - I'll try to pull up a note, it'll appear to be empty, then I close it. I then have to log in via a browser, go to the files section and find the note, and revert its version to the one before that had data. An error is logged in Nextcloud, too, saying that an empty file was being saved - but I have no idea when it's going to happen or how to prevent it. My only recourse is to dump the app (on iOS and Android, had the problem with both platforms) and just use the web interface. This app should be fixed or trashed.

Needs features and UI tweaking

I think it’s functional but not amazing.

Will delete note content

Note content will be deleted randomly. I’ve noticed it particularly when you rename a note. It’s a shame because this could be a promising app for syncing your Nextcloud notes.

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.
