Notes for people who mean it.
Notely is dead simple on purpose. Add, edit, delete, search, pin — nothing else. All your notes live in this browser's local storage. Nothing gets uploaded, synced, tracked, or trained on.
Local-first
Your notes never leave this device. Clearing your browser data will clear them — export a copy if it matters.
Fast writing
A single input for the title, one textarea for the body, and it auto-saves as you type.
Instant search
Filter across titles and bodies as you type. Substring match, case-insensitive.
Pin what matters
Pinned notes float to the top of your list, no matter when you last edited them.
Brain Challenge mode
Opt-in. Toggle it on and a 5-second idle timer arms whenever you have unsaved changes. Stop typing, unsaved changes wipe. Focus becomes a game.
Visible countdown
The editor shows a live countdown ring. You always know how close you are to the reset.
A quick FYI
Notely is an MVP. The core is stable, Brain Challenge is opt-in, and the roadmap is driven by what actual users ask for. Have a request? Open a note titled "Feature idea" — it's a start.
