NotePad

A simple and intuitive notepad based on the app bundled with Palm Pilot.


• Entirely offline, requiring few permissions to run.


• Permission to use external storage is only needed to back up or
restore your notes on Marshmallow (Android 6) and older.

• The following permissions are added by WorkManager, a Google
library used to run the export, import, and password re-encryption
operations in the background when initiated by the user. The core
app does not use these on its own.


• Permission to run a foreground service, added on Pie (Android 9)
and later.

• Permission to view network connections, used by WorkManager to
determine the best time to schedule background tasks.

• Permission to prevent the phone from sleeping, used by WorkManager
to keep the processor awake while a background task is running.

• Permission to run at startup, used by WorkManager to reschedule
any pending background task after the phone is rebooted.





• Create any number of categories for different notes.

• Mark notes as private and optionally encrypt them with a password.

• Export notes to a local XML file.

• Import notes from an XML file.

• Backwards compatible with Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and up.
