About Another Notepad

Another Notepad was born from a simple idea: sometimes you just need a place to jot down temporary thoughts without creating permanent digital clutter. Think of it as a digital sticky note—useful for a while, then gone.

We created this tool for people who appreciate minimalism and value privacy through ephemerality. There's something refreshing about writing without the burden of endless storage and organization.

Another Notepad is designed with simplicity at its core:

1. No Login Required - Start typing immediately without creating yet another online account.
2. Automatic Saving - Your content is saved as you type, so you don't have to worry about losing your work.
3. 24-Hour Lifespan - Every note automatically vanishes after 24 hours. No exceptions, no recovery.
4. Dark Mode - Easy on the eyes, whether you're working day or night.
5. Session Based - Each notepad exists in its own session with a unique URL you can bookmark or share.

We chose 24 hours as the perfect balance between utility and ephemerality. It's long enough to be useful for a full day's work, sharing notes with someone in a different time zone, or keeping track of temporary information—but short enough to maintain the core principle of digital minimalism.

If you need to keep something longer, you can always download your note before it expires or copy it to a more permanent storage solution.

Every digital file stored forever has an environmental cost in server electricity, cooling, and maintenance. By creating a tool that automatically cleans up, we're promoting more sustainable digital habits. Think of Another Notepad as the digital equivalent of using a washable whiteboard instead of consuming endless sticky notes.
