I use Standard Notes several times a day from multiple computers and my Android smartphone. I don’t know the exact cause of the issue. ![]() I’d like to share my experiences with it before I set off looking for yet another alternative note-taking solution. I’ve lost notes (and thereby a lot of work) almost every week that I’ve been Standard Notes. This isn’t the first time this has happened either. Standard Notes overwrote the original draft for it with a different note and I was unable to restore it. This is the second time I’ve written this article. Unfortunately, history is repeating itself. For the most part, Standard Note gets the job done. The promise of any of many note-taking services that’s available on the market is that they’ll keep your notes safe and in-sync between devices. Instead, it’s a rather pointless gimmick. This feature could have been very useful if it persisted and synced across devices. The feature is limited to the history of changes in your active session on the current device. The service also has some very limited revision-history capabilities. ![]() This means I can trust the free hosted-service to keep my notes private, and that I can set up and host my own servers if the free service were to go away. It’s open-source and your notes are end-to-end encrypted. Standard Notes is a minimalist note-taking app available for all leading platforms. I abandoned it in favor of Standard Notes five months ago. I used to use Simplenote but I kept having issues with it losing my notes. I jot them down on my phone or laptop and expect them to be available on all my devices within seconds.
