Notesica - Private Notes

Notes that are actually yours.

Notesica is a note-taking app with no account, no cloud, and no subscription. Your notes are written to your phone and stay there. Pay once, if you ever want to: the app is fully usable free.

WHY PEOPLE WOULD SWITCH TO NOTESICA

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR DEVICE
No account. No sign-up. No cloud. Your notes are stored on your phone and are never uploaded anywhere, so there is nothing for us to see, sell, or lose.

COLOUR-CODED FOLDERS
Give each folder its own colour, pick from the palette or dial in any shade. Pin what matters, archive what is done, search across everything.

A REAL EDITOR, FREE
Bold, italics, underline, strikethrough, bullet and numbered lists, checkboxes, quotes and code, all free. Not a locked-down demo.

ONE HAND, EITHER HAND
Tell Notesica which hand holds your phone and the new-note and search buttons move within reach of that thumb. Left-handed? Finally, an app that asks.

RETRO OUTSIDE, MODERN INSIDE
Ivory paper, square corners and fine gold hairlines: the warmth of software from twenty years ago, before every app went flat and grey. Underneath it is thoroughly modern: a rich-text editor, dark mode and instant search.

SMALL AND QUIET
About 4 MB. No bloat, no AI upsell you did not ask for, no notifications begging you to come back.

NO SUBSCRIPTION, NO ADS
Notesica is not free-with-ads and it does not want a monthly fee. The app is free to use, and one optional payment unlocks the extras.

SEVEN LANGUAGES
English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch and Croatian.

WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL
Aeroplane mode, the Underground, a dead zone. There is nothing to sync, so there is nothing to wait for. No sign-in, no sync spinner.

NOTESICA PRO - ONE PAYMENT, YOURS FOREVER

Everything above is free. Pro adds:

- Unlimited folders (the free app gives you Main plus one)
- Text colours and font choices
- Export any note to a clean PDF

No subscription. Pay once and keep it.

GOOD TO KNOW

Because nothing is uploaded, nothing is recoverable if you lose your phone, so export a backup from time to time. Notesica tells you this on first run, because we would rather say it up front than in a support reply.

Made by one developer who was tired of watching ads to write things down. Download Notesica and see.
