Self-Hosted Encrypted Notes

SE Notes — Encrypted Notes, Your Way

Take notes without giving up your privacy. SE Notes keeps your data encrypted with AES-256 — one of the strongest encryption standards available — so only you can read what you write.

Why SE Notes?
Most note apps store your data on their servers. With SE Notes, you decide where your data lives. Sync privately to your own Google Drive — no third-party servers, no subscriptions, no compromise.

Features:

🔒 PIN-protected Private Notes — a dedicated vault, locked behind a 6-digit PIN and PBKDF2 key derivation

📴 Offline-first — your notes live on your device; nothing is sent anywhere unless you explicitly back up

☑️ Checklists — turn any note into a task list, check items off, and set reminders for the whole list or individual items

🔔 Reminders & notifications — set one-time or recurring reminders (daily, weekly, monthly) for any note or checklist item, right on your device

📁 Folders & organization — group notes, sort and group by date, quick search

🎙️ Voice input — dictate notes hands-free

📷 Camera OCR — capture text from photos straight into a note

📝 Scratch Pad — a quick, no-commitment space for fleeting thoughts

☁️ Google Drive backup — sync encrypted backups to your own Google Drive, entirely under your control

🎨 Multiple themes — from Light and Dark to OLED Black, Sepia, Ocean Depth, Synthwave, Cotton Candy, and more

Your privacy, guaranteed.
Your notes stay yours. No one else has access — not even us. Data syncs only to your personal Google Drive account, where only you hold the keys.
