Encrypted Notes

AES-256 notes stored only in this browser.

🔒 Processed on your device — nothing is uploaded.

Your notes are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a key derived from your password (PBKDF2, 250,000 rounds) and stored only in this browser. There is no password recovery.

About the Encrypted Notes

Some notes — account recovery codes, private ideas, personal information — shouldn’t sit in plain text. The vault encrypts your notes with AES-256 using a key derived from your password and stores them only in this browser.

When to use it

  • Keeping recovery codes and private details encrypted
  • Writing a private journal on a shared computer
  • Storing sensitive drafts you don’t want synced to the cloud
  • Learning how client-side encryption works

Tips for the best results

  • There is no password reset — if you forget it, the notes can’t be recovered
  • Use the Backup button to save an encrypted copy
  • Clearing your browser data deletes the vault, so keep a backup
