Encryptic

If you want to make sure your private notes remain private, you can try a note-taking application focused on security, such as Encryptic.

You only need to set up an account and assign it a passphrase that is then used to protect your notes, so you need to remember this password or keep is safe if you choose to save it on your PC.

This utility is portable, so it does not need to be installed on your computer and it can be launched from a portable device whenever needed.

Also, since it is based on Electron, its GUI is highly intuitive and user-friendly.

When creating new notes, you can add relevant titles, create notebooks and assign tags, so you can easily sort the notes later on.

You can not only format the text (bold and italic are provided), but you can also insert hyperlinks and images, along with numbered or bulleted lists and line breaks.

There are two ways to format your note: either use the integrated buttons, or you can rely on Markdown commands.

To ensure the Markdown syntax matches your exact necessities, you can activate the Preview mode so Encryptic displays the output text and the syntax version side by side. This way, you can check the result in real time, so you can revert the changes if you are not pleased with the outcome.

Encryptic can prove to be a reliable and feature-packed solution for all those who want to password-protect their notes. Multiple accounts are supported and the app also come with extension hotkey support, so you can speed up all the actions as soon as you get familiarized with them (you can customize them too).
