Standard Notes · Joplin · CryptPad
What it's for
End-to-end encrypted notes and documents, to replace Google Docs, Notion or Evernote.
Why it matters
Standard Notes (by Proton) encrypts your notes by default. Joplin handles Markdown notebooks with optional encryption and the sync of your choice. CryptPad (French) offers a real-time, fully encrypted Google Docs equivalent.
For whom & when Everyone for notes; CryptPad for multi-person collaboration.
Install & use
Standard Notes / Joplin: create an account, install the app, and enable encryption (on by default in Standard Notes, to switch on in Joplin).
- CryptPad: use cryptpad.fr or another instance, no account needed to start.
