Every Feature, Explained
A complete tour of what this online notepad does and why each thing matters.
Open the notepad →Core writing experience
Multiple tabs
Open as many notes as you want. Each tab autosaves independently. Switch between them like browser tabs. Close a tab and the others stay safe.
Autosave to your browser
Every keystroke is saved to your browser's local storage within milliseconds. Close the tab, close the browser, restart your computer — your notes are still there when you come back. No "save" button to remember.
Dark mode
A real dark mode that follows your system or toggles with Ctrl+D. Designed from the ground up, not retrofitted onto a light design.
Markdown preview
Write in markdown, toggle preview with Ctrl+M, see formatted output side-by-side. Supports headings, bold, italic, lists, code blocks, blockquotes, and links.
Sharing and portability
Shareable links
Click File → Share. The notepad encodes your note into the URL itself. Send the link to anyone. The note never touches our servers.
Save to a file
Press Ctrl+S to download your note as a .txt file. Open it in any text editor. Your data is yours.
Open files
Press Ctrl+O to open any .txt or .md file from your computer in a new tab.
Power-user tools
Find and replace
Press Ctrl+F to find, Ctrl+H to find and replace. Case-insensitive, supports replacing one match or all matches.
Word, character, line, and column count
Always visible in the status bar at the bottom. Useful for hitting word targets or checking line lengths.
Zoom in and out
Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- resize the editor text. Ctrl+0 resets.
Word wrap toggle
Switch between wrapped and unwrapped text — useful when working with code or logs.
Insert date and time
Press F5 to insert the current date and time at the cursor — the same shortcut Windows Notepad uses.
Privacy and offline
No signup, ever
Open the page and start writing. No email, no account, no "free trial."
No ads, no tracking
No banners, no popups, no analytics that profile you, no third-party scripts.
Works offline
After your first visit, the notepad works without an internet connection. Install it as a PWA from your browser's address bar to get an app icon.
