Notepad – Quick Notes with Sync & Backup

Never lose a note: auto-save, note history and automatic backups. Groups, pins, checklists, sync via Chrome bookmarks.

Never lose a note again. Every keystroke is saved, every note has its own history, and restore points bring back anything you delete – even all your notes at once. Notepad is a fast, simple notepad for Chrome – in the toolbar or in the side panel next to any page. Notes save as you type and sync to every computer where you use Chrome, through your own Chrome bookmarks. No account, no login, no servers. ★ NEW IN 1.8 • Side panel: keep your notes open beside any website while you browse • Edited on two computers? If another computer changes a note, the text it replaced is kept in that note's history – nothing is silently lost • Recovery Centre: see your notes, Trash, restore points and last backup in one place • Templates: start from Meeting notes, To-do list or Daily journal – or save any note as your own template (templates sync too) • Save the page you're on: press Alt+Shift+L or right-click → "Save page link to Notepad" • Bigger, easier-to-read interface, with Compact / Default / Large sizes ★ NEVER LOSE A NOTE • Auto-saved as you type – even if the popup closes mid-sentence, your last words are recovered • Note history: earlier versions of every note are kept for 30 days – and the newest 5 forever. See exactly what changed, then restore in one click • Restore points: made automatically before you delete notes and at the end of each day. Bring everything back – with names, groups, pins and colours • If a sync or crash ever makes notes disappear, Notepad notices and brings them back in one click • Undo and redo for every note – separately, so undo never mixes up your notes • Trash keeps deleted notes for 30 days • Download everything any time: one .zip with a .txt per note, a single .txt, or a full .json backup • Removing Notepad does not delete your notes – they stay in your Chrome bookmarks ★ MOVING FROM THE OLD "NOTEPAD" EXTENSION? Open Notepad and click Import. Every note comes across with its formatting. Your original notes are not changed or deleted. ★ ORGANISE • Groups you can fold open and closed • Pin up to 10 notes to the top • Colour-tag notes (6 colours or any colour you like) • Drag to reorder notes, groups and pinned notes • Archive notes you're done with – hidden from the list but kept safe • Select many notes at once to delete, archive or move them • Search all notes – and find inside a note with Ctrl+F ★ WRITE • Checklists you can tick off, headings, bullet and numbered lists, quotes and code blocks • Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, text colours, links and 10 fonts • Templates for meetings, to-do lists and journals – or your own • Insert today's date or time in 5 formats – or just press F5, like Windows Notepad • Emoji picker and 66 special characters, all searchable • Voice typing in 21 languages – speak and it types • Save selected text or the current page's link from any web page • Word count, character count and reading time as you type ★ LOOK & FEEL • Popup, side panel or full-screen tab – your choice • Three themes: Light, cream Notepad paper with ruled lines, and Dark • Interface size: Compact, Default or Large • Available in English, हिन्दी, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch, Bahasa Indonesia and العربية • Print any note with your page size, orientation and margins ★ HOW SYNC WORKS Notes are stored as bookmarks in a folder called "Notepad (synced notes)". If you are signed in to Chrome with sync on for Bookmarks, Chrome copies that folder to your other computers automatically. Notepad has no server, so if sync is off your notes stay on that computer – download a backup now and then. Please don't edit that folder by hand. ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your notes never leave your browser and Chrome Sync • Note history and restore points stay on your own computer • No account, no analytics, no ads, no tracking • Voice typing (only while you use it) sends your voice to Google's speech service to turn it into text ★ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS Alt+Shift+N open Notepad · Alt+Shift+L save page link · Alt+N new note · Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y undo / redo · Ctrl+F find in note · F2 rename · F5 date and time · Ctrl+Shift+9 checklist · Ctrl+K link · Ctrl+P print · Ctrl+\ hide sidebar (Change them at chrome://extensions/shortcuts – you can also set one for the side panel.)
