Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 16, 2026

FUTO Notes is an offline-first notes app. Your notes are stored on your device. We have designed the app so that, by default, none of your content ever leaves your device — and even when you turn on sync, your notes are end-to-end encrypted and sent only to a server you control.

Your notes stay on your device

All core features work fully offline with no account. Your notes are kept in local storage on your device. We do not have a server that holds your notes.

Sync is optional and self-hosted

FUTO Notes does not operate a cloud sync service. If you choose to enable sync, you point the app at a sync server that you host and control (the open-source FUTO Notes server). Your notes are end-to-end encrypted on your device before they are uploaded; the server only ever stores opaque, encrypted data. FUTO does not receive, store, or have access to your notes, your email address, or your password.

Crash reports

To help us find and fix bugs, the app can send a diagnostic report when it crashes. This is enabled by default and can be turned off at any time in Settings. A crash report contains the error and stack trace, the app version, your device model and OS version, a random session identifier, and any note you choose to add before sending. Crash reports are sent to notes-crashlog.futo.org. They are not linked to your identity and are never used for advertising or tracking.

What we don't do

We do not use analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking. We do not sell or share your data. The app requests only the permissions it needs for features you use (for example, camera or photo access when you attach an image to a note).
