MoatBook

Moatbook is a private, local-first journal and note-taking app. Everything you write stays on your device — no account, no cloud, no tracking, and no ads. Open the app and start writing; nothing leaves your phone.

WRITE WITHOUT FRICTION
• A clean, distraction-free block editor — headings, lists, to-dos, quotes.
• Capture journal entries, ideas, and notes that build into a personal knowledge base.
• Start from 24 hand-crafted templates so you never face a blank page.

A JOURNAL FOR EVERY DAY
• A dedicated daily page for highlights and free-form reflection.
• Jump to any day from a built-in calendar.

STAY ORGANIZED
• Group notes into notebooks, with tags and smart filters (Pinned, Today, This week).
• Switch between list and grid views.
• Fast full-text search across every note — entirely offline.

YOUR DATA, YOUR FILES
• Export and import your notes as plain Markdown (.md).
• No lock-in: your writing is yours to take anywhere.

MADE YOURS
• Warm, paper-inspired themes — light and dark.
• Adjustable density and a subtle paper-grain texture.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Local-first: notes live in on-device storage, not on our servers.
• No sign-up, no data collection, no third-party trackers. Works fully offline.

Your thinking is your moat.
