Your notes are saved to this browser on this device only. They will not be saved if you are in incognito or private browsing mode, if you clear your browser cache or browsing data, or if you switch to a different browser or device. A VPN does not affect saving. To keep a permanent copy of your notes, click Download .txt above — this saves a text file directly to your computer's Downloads folder that you can open anytime.

A Simple Notepad in Your Browser

This is a free online notepad that works right in your browser tab. Your text saves automatically to local storage so it's still there when you come back. No account needed.

What You Can Do

Type or paste any text. It auto-saves as you go. Use the toolbar to undo, redo, copy your text to the clipboard, download it as a .txt file, or clear it and start fresh. Word count, character count, and line count update in real time below the notepad.

When It's Useful

Quick notes during a meeting. Drafting a message before sending it. Pasting text you need to clean up. Jotting down an idea before you forget it. Anywhere you need a blank page without the overhead of opening a full app.

How Saving Works

Your notes are stored in your browser's local storage. They persist across sessions as long as you don't clear your browsing data. Local storage does not work in incognito or private browsing mode. If you want a permanent copy, use the Download button to save a .txt file to your computer.
