About Secure NoteBooks

A straightforward app for keeping your important data private and secure with a focus on simplicity. Ideal for web logins, passwords, pin codes, etc. It doesn't require permission to access the Internet so you can rest assured that your sensitive data is staying on your device.

Features:

* Group your notes into notebooks with different strength passwords (e.g. personal, work, banking, etc...).
* Sort notes alphabetically or chronologically.
* Search your notes.
* Data encrypted using AES 128-bit.
* No annoying advertisements.
* Securely backup/restore database.
* Upload secure backups to cloud via email, drive, evernote, etc...
* Import/export notebooks in plain text format.
* Minimal permissions required (just WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE for export/backup).

It is recommended that you backup your database regularly, and export notes to a secure location on your PC periodically.

It is your responsibility to remember your password(s) for your secure notebooks. If you forget them, they can't be recovered.

DO NOT blame Samsung update. I just got a new ph (LG2O) this wkend. Downloaded this app. Confirmed password. Made one entry. Immediately re-checked & password failed. Created another folder. Added one entry. Password failed. SO THANKFUL that I did NOT trust this app. UNINSTALLING. (Edited to add that this app appears to have last had an update 2 years ago. NOT good for such an app as this one.)

Never had problems with this app, but after the latest droid update I can't access my notes as it doesn't take the known password. Also, with no password recovery I gonna have to uninstall as it doesn't do any good anymore. Very disappointed as I did like the app.

Nougat breaks this app. After creating a file in encrypted folder, user can't decrypt. Also, can't decrypt a backup file created before Nougat. Switched to "Sec Notes", which seems to have very similar features (folders, encryption). Fortunately, I was able to decrypt and export my files in plain text using app in older phone, and then import into Sec Notes.

App was just fine until I had to update droid, now app will not except known password. Try to email app support and instantly goes to send failure.

Works fine until and OS update takes place then you will be locked out of your data. Support email address is bogus too. Don't waste your time with it.

I've had this app forever and absolutely loved it. Then Samsung had an update and I can't get into it anymore???????? So I've lost a lot and there's nothing I can do about it. So I've uninstalled it and gone back in to get it again. Just not going to trust it with much. I recommended this app to a lot of people and I'm sure they are going to be really pissed off too.

This app was good for a while, but since my phone updated, this app officially sucks. I lost everything I had in there. Since there's no password retrieval, you need to seriously fix that problem.

I cannot log into my secure notebook at all. I did a software update to Android 7.0 software version on my HTC 10. Now the app keeps rejecting my password with an error message - password is incorrect. I tested with my other HTC one under Android version 5.0.2 using the same password and it works. Can you please fix this?? I cannot retrieve anything.

Nice concept but it sucks if you forget your password. I haven't use my tablet in over 9 months and forgot my password. Now I'm realizing there's no recovery for forgotten passwords. I have no idea what's in my notebook and would like to look back on my notes but I can't. Since I can't get into the main purpose of the app I'm deleting. Total waste of time if you forget passwords. Very disappointing.

I have had no problems with it I give 5 just for the fact that it has no ads and does not ask for any permissions or trys to access the the internet as I tell when a app is trying though the firewall

Q70%
by Q####:

Doesn't save very well. You can't even leave the app to go do something else without it deleting all that you wrote, and there are other notebook apps that have a password setting that don't require a password for every single book. This may be more secure, but it's really annoying and hard to use. Also it follows its own rules, so it doesn't auto capitalize the first word of a sentence like my phone does which can get very confusing.
