HappyNotes
Your memories deserve better than a platform that can delete them.
17 years of notes. Yours forever.
HappyNotes is a note-taking app built around one constraint: write as fast as you think. No folders to file into, no formatting to fuss over — just a thought, a timestamp, and a place it will never disappear from.
Why not just use [existing app]?
The free versions have too many limits. The paid versions lock your notes behind a platform that can sunset, raise prices, or simply decide your export format is no longer a priority. HappyNotes keeps your notes in a format you can always read.
Features
Write fast
- One tap to a new note, anywhere in the app
- Markdown supported — turn it on per note or as a default
- Photos upload as Markdown image links; the text is yours even if the image host changes
Browse naturally
- Flip through notes by day, like a paper notebook — go back to any date, forward or back
- Organize with
#tagsinline; tap a tag to see everything under it - Long-press any page title for a tag cloud
Private by default, public when you want
- Each note is private or public, your choice
- Public notes are discoverable; private notes stay private
- Photos are always public URLs — don’t upload what you wouldn’t share
Sync as backup
- Telegram: sync all notes, or filter by visibility or tag, to any channel you own
