Frequently asked questions

What is an online notepad?

An online notepad is a web-based text editor you can use straight from your browser to write and save notes without installing software. Toollyz Online Notepad adds auto-save, multiple notes, Markdown formatting, analytics and exports on top of a clean, distraction-free writing experience.

Does the notepad auto-save?

Yes. Every change is saved automatically to your browser's local storage within moments, and a save indicator confirms it. When you come back later, your notes are exactly as you left them.

Can I use this offline?

Yes. Because everything is stored locally in your browser, you can keep writing without an internet connection. Your notes persist between sessions on the same device and browser.

Can I export my notes?

Yes. Export any note as a plain-text TXT, a Markdown .md file, a styled HTML page, a Word-compatible DOC, or a PDF via the print dialog. You can also copy the text or print it directly.

Does this support Markdown?

Yes. Toggle Markdown mode to use a formatting toolbar (bold, italic, headings, lists, quotes, code and more) and see a live, GitHub-style preview in split-screen — including syntax-styled code blocks.

Can I create multiple notes?

Yes. Use the sidebar to create, rename, duplicate, pin, search and delete as many notes as you like. Pinned notes stay at the top, and the most recently edited notes are listed first.

Can I upload text files?

Yes. Drag and drop or browse for plain-text and Markdown files (.txt, .md and similar) and they'll open as a new note ready to edit. For Word documents, paste the text in.

Is my data stored online?

No. Your notes never leave your device — they're saved only in your browser's local storage. There's no account and nothing is uploaded to a server, so your writing stays completely private.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The editor, sidebar, toolbar and preview are fully responsive and touch-friendly, with a focus mode for comfortable, distraction-free writing on phones and tablets.

Can I print my notes?

Yes. The Print / PDF option opens a clean, formatted version of your note in a new window so you can print it or save it as a PDF from your browser's print dialog.

Is this online notepad free?

Completely free with no signup and no limits. Auto-save, multiple notes, Markdown, analytics, productivity tools and all export formats are available to everyone, privately in your browser.
