## What is PrivacyNotes?

PrivacyNotes is an end-to-end encrypted workspace for your notes, tasks, and journal. A 12-word recovery phrase, generated on your device, is the only key. Everything is encrypted before it leaves your phone, so no one, not even us, can read it.

Three pillars, one private home:

- Notes: fast and markdown-native, fully searchable, with note-links between them.
- Tasks: capture and organize what you need to get done.
- Journal: a quiet, private space for daily entries.

Private by design:

- Zero-knowledge encryption (XChaCha20-Poly1305). We store only ciphertext.
- No trackers, no ads, no telemetry, ever.
- Works offline; syncs encrypted across your devices.
- No email or account required to start.

Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited devices, more encrypted storage, full note history, locked and PIN-protected notes, the mood and wellness suite, every color theme, and Zen mode. Your privacy is never the product.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 0.495.1 — 2026-09-03

- A protected note stays open while you're writing in it
- The text colour and highlight buttons remember the colour you picked last, so a repeat is one press. Press the same colour twice to strip it.
- The formatting row went from sixteen buttons to twelve, so it fits one line on a phone. Link, note link, quote and callout moved into the + menu.

### 0.473.2 — 2026-08-31

No release notes.
