Notesnook
Notesnook is a note-taking app for web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. It supports note sharing and encrypted storage: notes are end-to-end encrypted before leaving the device. Users can lock the app with a fingerprint, PIN, or password, and protect selected notes with a separate password. A note can be published as a web page, optionally protected by a password. The free plan includes unlimited notes on unlimited devices, 50 MB of attachment storage per month, and a maximum file size of 10 MB. Paid plans provide 1 GB to 25 GB of attachment storage per month. Free users can read web-clipped content offline; full offline mode is included with paid plans. Notes can be sent into the Inbox through Zapier, IFTTT, or a custom script. The apps and sync server are open source under GPLv3. Notesnook is made by Streetwriters (Private) Ltd., founded in 2019 and based in Khushab, Pakistan. Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time without fees, with notes remaining readable and exportable.
