Take fast, secure notes and protect your private information with AES-256 encryption.
FairNote is the intuitive notepad app for quick ideas, to-do lists, and personal journals, combining speed, simplicity, and privacy in one place.

Key Benefits:

• Encrypted notes: Protect each note individually. Content stays encrypted; titles remain readable for quick scanning.
• Encrypted images: Images added to encrypted notes stay encrypted alongside the note content, keeping your images protected and private.
• Fast note-taking: Create text or checklist notes in seconds. Supports undo/redo, search & replace, and Markdown preview.
• Organize efficiently: Use labels, colors, filters, pinned notes, and home screen shortcuts to keep everything under control.
• Smart reminders: Set one-time or recurring reminders, even for pinned notes.
• Easy access: Add new notes from notifications, widgets, or directly from other apps.
• Backup & restore: Keep notes safe with Google Drive, Dropbox, WebDAV, Yandex Disk, or local storage.
• Biometric security: Use fingerprints or other biometrics (Android 6.0+) to lock/unlock notes quickly.

Pro Features:

• Biometric encryption: encrypt and decrypt notes without typing your password
• One-tap encryption: encrypt or decrypt your entire note collection with a single tap
• App lock: protect the app with your device PIN, pattern, or biometrics
• Image attachments: add images to your notes. Images are saved at a smaller size and remain encrypted in encrypted notes
• Recurring reminders: stay on track with automatic daily or weekly alerts

Additional Highlights:

• Organize notes in list or grid view
• Sort notes by date, color, or alphabetically
• Perform batch operations: encrypt, decrypt, delete, or export multiple notes
• Receive shared texts from other apps
• Sticky notes and note list widgets with transparency control
• Import and export notes individually or in batches
• Archive notes and set automatic/manual save preferences
• Multi-language support: Bengali, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish

FairNote makes note-taking simple, fast, and secure, so you can focus on your ideas while keeping your private information safe.

⚠️ Important: Always remember your encryption password. Even with biometrics, forgetting it may result in losing access to your encrypted notes.
