Frequently Asked Questions
How secure are my notes?
All your notes are encrypted with AES-256 encryption before being stored. We use a zero-knowledge architecture, meaning we never have access to your unencrypted notes.
Can I export my notes?
Yes! Free users can export to plain text, while Premium users have access to all formats including JSON, Markdown, Obsidian, Notion, and Google Docs.
What happens if I cancel my Premium subscription?
You'll retain access to Premium features until your current billing period ends. After that, you'll be moved to the free plan but keep all your notes.
How do I change my password?
Use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page. Your notes will remain accessible without any re-encryption needed.
