Why Use a Browser-Based Notepad?
Sometimes you just need a quick place to paste text, draft a message, or jot down a thought. Native apps require installation, cloud services need accounts, and physical sticky notes get lost. This browser notepad is instantly available, completely private (data never leaves your device), and persistent - your notes survive browser restarts without any signup.

FAQ
Q: Will my notes be saved if I close the browser?
A: Yes! All notes are automatically saved to your browser's local storage. When you return to this page, your notes will be right where you left them. Just don't clear your browser data.
Q: Can I access my notes on another device?
A: Notes are stored locally in your browser, so they don't sync across devices automatically. However, you can use the Export feature to download your notes as a JSON file, then Import them on another device.
Q: Is there a limit to how many notes I can create?
A: The limit depends on your browser's localStorage capacity, typically around 5-10MB. For text notes, this allows thousands of notes. If you hit the limit, export and clear old notes.
