Online Notepad
A distraction-free notepad that auto-saves in your browser.
What is the Online Notepad?
The Online Notepad is a simple, distraction-free text box that auto-saves what you type directly in your own browser, using its local storage — not a server. Close the tab, restart your computer, come back tomorrow: your notes are still there, exactly as you left them, on that same browser and device.
How to use it
- Start typing. There is no save button, because it saves automatically as you go.
- Use Download .txt whenever you want a copy of your notes as a plain text file.
- Use Copy to grab everything to your clipboard, or Clear to wipe the notepad and start fresh.
This is handy for a quick scratchpad while researching, drafting a message before pasting it somewhere else, jotting down a to-do list, or keeping a running note you want to find again later without creating an account anywhere. Because everything is stored using your browser's local storage, your notes never leave your device and are not sent to any server — which also means they are tied to this specific browser and device, and will not appear if you open the tool on a different browser or in private/incognito mode. For anything you cannot afford to lose, use the Download button to keep a backup copy on your device.
