Your draft stays in this browser

The editor saves one title and one plain-text draft to local browser storage shortly after each change. Returning with the same browser profile restores that draft automatically. There is no account, cloud synchronization, sharing link, or intentional upload of the note to Gypes. Live totals count words, Unicode characters, and lines.

Import and export ordinary text files

You can open a local TXT, Markdown, CSV, or JSON text file up to 2 MB. The browser reads it directly and replaces the current draft. Preparing a download creates a UTF-8 TXT file from the current editor contents. The generated filename is based on the note title with unsafe filename characters removed.

Local autosave is convenient, not a backup

Private browsing, browser cleanup, storage restrictions, another device or profile, a reset, or clearing site data can remove the stored draft. Download important work regularly and keep it in a backed-up location. This is deliberately a plain-text scratchpad, not a collaborative or rich-text document editor.

Use a recoverable writing routine

Give the note a recognizable title, write a short line, wait for autosave, then reload once to confirm that this browser profile can restore it before composing something long. At meaningful checkpoints, prepare a TXT download and open that file independently. Use dated filenames when several versions matter, and keep at least one copy outside browser storage. Import replaces the current draft, so export or copy existing work before opening another file. If the page reports a storage or download error, stop editing and preserve the visible text through a trusted manual copy rather than assuming another autosave will succeed.

Do not rely on browser storage as the only copy of important, confidential, legal, medical, financial, academic, or recovery information. Anyone with access to this browser profile may be able to read the local draft.
