What's New in Trinote

1.21.1

September 30, 2026

What's New in 1.21.1 Save without pressing Save - New Autosave option (Settings → Note Editor): your note saves a few seconds after you stop typing. Choose 3, 5, 7, 10 or 12 seconds, and optionally hide the Save button. - New Back Button Saves option: tapping Back while editing saves your note. - Autosave also saves when you leave the app. When you're offline, changes are kept on your device and upload once you're back online. Faster, smoother notes - Long notes scroll more smoothly, especially on older iPhones. - Notes open faster and return to where you left off right away, with far less flicker when switching between tabs. - Fixed notes that stayed on a blank screen for a few seconds when opening, or that opened partway down. - Switching between note tabs no longer flashes an uncolored title or a brief "offline" icon. - Links to headings and bookmarks inside a note now scroll to the right place, and Find still reveals matches inside wide tables and code blocks. - Bug fixes and performance improvements. Version 1.21.0 Support for Trilium v0.106, much faster sync for large note collections, new offline options, and many fixes.

How Apps Used to Be

No ads, no in app purchases, no data collected, no cost. It does what it is meant for and nothing else. Updated frequently. Perfect app.

Perfect

Does exactly what you think it will do seamlessly. Works perfectly with my self hosted Trilium instance.

Works like a charm

Found this app by chance and it works like a charm with my Trilium notes. It is lightweight, straightforward to set up. Loved the ability to selectively sync notes/files so that I need not move my entire database to the phone. It is way better than accessing Trilium through the browser.

Finally!

Trilium has been my go-to for notes for several years. The only thing it was ever missing was a native mobile app. So happy to see Trinote fill that gap. First few laps with it and it seems to work perfectly. No stripped down viewer, this supports full editing and server sync. Love it so far!
