JihoVault opens a Markdown folder you already own — in OneDrive, on a WebDAV server, or on the device — and turns it into a fast, searchable notebook on iPhone and iPad. Your notes stay ordinary text files. Nothing is locked inside a database, and nothing passes through a server of ours, because there is no such server. CONNECT THE VAULT YOU ALREADY HAVE • OneDrive — sign in with your Microsoft account and choose a folder. No add-on, and no copying of the whole drive onto the phone. • WebDAV — your own NAS or server. Type the address and password, test the connection, and you are in. • On My iPhone and iCloud Drive — any folder the Files app can reach. BUILT FOR A VAULT THAT IS ALREADY BIG • The first sync reads the Markdown text so search works with no connection. After that, only what changed comes down. • Search looks inside words, not only at their edges, so Korean and other languages that do not break on spaces are found properly. • Aliases in front matter are indexed, so links written in your own language still resolve. WRITE THE WAY YOU THINK • Live Markdown — headings, bold, quotes, code, and tables take shape as you type, with the marks kept out of the way. • [[Wiki links]] with completion, and backlinks that show you what points here. • Checklists you tick by tapping, lists that carry on by themselves, and keyboard shortcuts on iPad. A MEETING, CAUGHT WHOLE • Record while you take notes. Tap a line afterwards and the playback jumps to the moment you wrote it. • Transcription runs on the device. • The recording is saved inside your own vault, beside the note. REAL FILE MANAGEMENT Swipe a row to rename, copy, move, or delete. Press and hold to pick several at once. Deleted items go to a trash folder inside the vault, so you can bring them back. PRIVACY No account to create, no usage tracking, no advertising, and no server of ours. Passwords and sign-in tokens live in the iOS Keychain on your device. Free. Nothing to buy inside.
