Recent changes:
Every password and PIN field now has an eye button: unlocking the app, opening a locked note, setting or changing your PIN, connecting Nextcloud or WebDAV, restoring from the cloud. No more typing blind.

The help also answers a question that kept coming up: two installations that keep different notes cannot share one cloud account. Sync merges them, and they share one backup limit. It now explains how to keep them apart.
