Ciphernotes is an end-to-end encrypted notebook that keeps your text safe even when it syncs through the cloud. Every note is encrypted before it leaves your device, so the server only sees ciphertext.

Encryption: - Encrypted in transit/storage from the server’s perspective. Notes are decrypted locally, edited locally, then encrypted before sync/upload. - Not encrypted at rest inside the app/device. Local IndexedDB data stores plaintext notes and decrypted file blobs. - Device compromise exposes notes. Malware, physical device access, malicious extensions (web version), or WebView data extraction can read plaintext local data and the key. - Server/operator compromise alone should not expose note contents.
