## What is Oaklet Notes?

Oaklet Notes brings writing, whiteboards, drawing, and structured knowledge together in a single note — kept in an encrypted vault that stays on your device. Write, sketch with Apple Pencil, build mind maps, and handle tables, math, and diagrams — then link everything into your own knowledge graph.

It's truly yours: offline-first, encrypted on your own device, with no account to create.

TRULY PRIVATE
• AES-256-GCM encryption protects every note
• Vault password, plus an optional Note Password for sensitive notes
• Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID (Pro)
• Auto-lock when you step away
• Works fully offline — no account to create, and your notes never pass through our servers

MULTI-MODAL — EVERY MODE, ONE NOTE
• A block-based rich-text editor
• Drawing with native Apple Pencil — pressure-sensitive, low-latency, layers, fill, and SVG export
• Whiteboard for mind maps and flowcharts, with one-click auto layouts
• Tables with formulas, LaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, code blocks, task lists
• Decorations — stickers, sticky notes, tape, and stamps, pinned to your text or floating free

PRIVATE AI, ON YOUR TERMS
• Connect a local AI model on your own network — no API key, no third-party cloud
• Or use your own cloud AI provider
• Drafting and rewriting, semantic search, auto-tagging, whiteboard generation, and plain-language tool calling
• AI is optional — the app connects to your provider rather than hosting one

ORGANIZE & CONNECT
• [[WikiLinks]] and ![[embeds]] build your knowledge network
• Backlinks panel and an interactive knowledge graph
• Hierarchical tags and full-text search

SYNC & SHARE ACROSS YOUR OWN DEVICES
• Direct Share — send a note straight to a nearby iPhone, iPad, Mac, or PC. Pair once with a code; transfers are encrypted end to end and go straight from one device to the other
• Local Sync (Pro) — turn one of your own computers into the sync hub for all your devices. It only ever holds encrypted files, never your password
• Prefer your own WebDAV server? Sync through that instead — or keep everything on this device

NO LOCK-IN
• Notes on your own disk, not a vendor's database
• Import and export Markdown anytime; export to PDF, HTML, and Word
• Move notes between devices and vaults as .yzn packages, without losing anything

Oaklet Notes is free to use. An optional Pro subscription unlocks advanced features — try it free for 30 days in the app. Subscriptions are billed through your Apple ID and can be managed in Settings.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-09

Send notes straight to another device — and sync through a computer you already own.

DIRECT SHARE
Send a note straight to another device. Pair once with a 6-digit code, and the two devices remember each other from then on. Transfers are encrypted end to end and never touch a server. Between Apple devices it even works with no internet connection — or no network at all — as long as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are on.

LOCAL SYNC (PRO)
Turn one of your own computers into a sync hub. Your iPhone and iPad find it on your network and sync through it, so nothing ever leaves your own devices. The hub only ever stores encrypted files and never sees your password.

NOTES PACKAGE (.yzn)
Move notes between vaults and devices without losing anything — decorations and handwriting included. Open a .yzn file from the Files app, confirm, and Oaklet imports it into your current vault. Importing is all-or-nothing, so a failed import never leaves half a note behind.

ALSO NEW
• Auto-lock — step away, and your vault locks itself after 15 minutes. It's on by default; change the interval or turn it off in Settings.
• Save multiple sync destinations and AI endpoints, and switch between them without retyping anything.
• The Knowledge Graph now opens as a full-screen view.

IMPROVED
• Sync conflicts now show both versions side by side and spell out exactly what each choice does.
• In-app messages now share one consistent style instead of pop-ups that got in the way of your work.
• Sync no longer downloads the index twice per run, so large vaults sync faster — and Oaklet syncs once whenever you come back to it.

FIXED
• Changing a vault's sync destination no longer deletes local notes or their history.
• Manual sync now runs to completion — the note list and the status indicator both refresh.
• Background sync no longer interrupts what you're editing.
• Handwriting, decorations, and page ink now come through export, import, and sync intact.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-06

Smoother handwriting and a more capable phone editor.

NEW
• Page-corner quick actions on the phone editor — handwriting, search, and a document menu at your fingertips
• Three-finger undo now shows a capsule you can tap repeatedly
• Open a built-in sample vault right from the welcome screen

IMPROVED
• Pen strokes render much more smoothly on long handwritten pages

FIXED
• Export on iPhone/iPad now hands files to the system share sheet
• A crash when undoing past the start of a handwriting session
• Floating keyboard toolbar reliability on iPad, and layout issues on narrow screens
• Safer saves under concurrent writes

### 1.0 — 2026-07-10

No release notes.
