Are you looking for an open-source, self-hosted note-keeping app? Or a dedicated space in your cloud to manage your notes? Nextcloud Hub is a safe home for all your data, hence, perfect for your notes too!<\/p>\n

Note that<\/strong> if you are a Google Keep fan, now that Google announced to end support for the Google Keep Chrome app in February 2021, you probably need a more reliable and privacy-wise tool!<\/p>\n

In which devices can I use Nextcloud Notes?<\/h2>\n

Nextcloud Notes<\/strong> is an app you can enable on your Nextcloud server to store and manage your notes. And since keeping random notes is more like a spontaneous thing, there are mobile clients available for Android and iOS that come handy to help you sync your notes and get you covered anywhere, anytime, any device!<\/p>\n

Browser<\/h4>\n

The Notes app is a distraction-free note-taking app for Nextcloud. It provides categories for better organization and supports formatting using Markdown syntax. Notes are saved as files in your Nextcloud, so you can view and edit them with every Nextcloud client, even if you don’t have the Notes client installed. Further features include marking notes as favourites.<\/p>\n

My main motivation for working on the Notes app is that I’m using it intensively for myself and there is always room for improvement. Besides that, I like to give something back to the open-source community, since I’m using much open-source software. From time to time, I contribute to other open-source projects, too. – Kristof<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

„Deciding what features to develop for the next release is driven by several technical demands, personal priorities and the community’s most-wanted features. Everybody who contributes by fixing issues or implementing new features is very welcome! Important goals for the Notes app are switching to the Nextcloud Text editor in order to allow collaborative writing, UX redesign for category handling and an improved search.“ -Kristof <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n„The feedback I get can be negative from time to time, like getting a 1-star rating from users with an edge case server setup with „Doesn’t work.“ without the possibility to help them, because no one ever responds to a help offer.
\nThough I love Play Store reviews like „I use the F-Droid flavour but I think you deserved to earn some money, therefore I bought it here“. They prove, that the often so-called „free culture“ is a lie. People honour free software.“ – Stefan<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

„Many thousands of users are my main motivation for developing this app further! Knowing that my work is useful to people, maybe even an integral part of their self-organization is the highest praise a developer can earn I think. Also, returning something to the community I have taken so much from. One can learn much from those interactions with different people spread around this world.“ -Stefan<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I plan to support the new server API version 1.0 in the near future. In the long term, I would like to get a new Markdown editor in, modernize the legacy codebase and add the possibility to use the app without a Nextcloud account. – Stefan<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
