A persistent text scratchpad that auto-saves as you type and survives closing the tab or restarting your browser - plus a snippet list for saving multiple pieces of text at once, all stored only in this browser.

Pro Tips
- •The main scratchpad saves automatically as you type - close the tab, restart your browser, and it's still there when you come back
- •Save as Snippet keeps a separate, named copy so you can jump between several pieces of text without losing any of them
- •Everything is stored only in this browser's local storage - it does not sync to your phone, another computer, or any other browser
- •Clearing your browser's site data or using a private/incognito window will erase what's saved here
Most Popular
Most people use the main scratchpad for a single note-in-progress, and snippets for a handful of reusable pieces of text
When to Use This Tool
Jot something down without opening a separate notes app, and have it still be there next time you visit.
Keep a small library of reusable text - signatures, code snippets, boilerplate replies - saved by name.
Draft something in a text box that won't disappear if you accidentally close the tab or refresh.
How It Works
Text you type in the scratchpad is saved to your browser's local storage automatically, with no button to press
Saving a snippet stores a separate named copy in the same local storage, up to 50 snippets
Everything reloads automatically the next time you open this page in the same browser
Nothing is ever sent to a server - all storage is local to your browser only
100% Private
Files never leave your device. All processing happens locally in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this sync across my devices?
No - everything is stored only in this browser's local storage, on this one device. It will not appear on your phone, another computer, or even a different browser on the same computer. If you need to move text between devices, copy it and send it to yourself another way (email, messaging app, etc.).
Will my text still be there if I close the tab?
Yes - the main scratchpad and any saved snippets persist in your browser's local storage until you clear your browser's site data, so closing the tab or restarting your browser won't lose them.
Does this work in private or incognito mode?
It works during that session, but private/incognito browsing typically clears local storage when the window closes, so anything saved won't be there next time.
How many snippets can I save?
Up to 50 saved snippets. Once you hit that limit, saving a new one removes the oldest.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. Everything is stored locally in your browser using localStorage - nothing you type here is ever transmitted anywhere.
