About
CypherLeaf lets you write and maintain private notes locally on an Android device, giving you a place to draft and organize information without relying on an online service. Its local-storage design lets the release build work without requesting internet permission. Notes can be sorted into folders and marked with tags, while pinned entries remain easy to find.
Deleted notes move to a trash area where they can be restored, and attachments can be kept with individual notes. Reminders send notifications for entries that need attention, while a home-screen widget surfaces recent and pinned notes. Light and dark themes are available, along with an adjustable font size.
You can lock the app through Android biometrics or the device screen lock, and individual protected notes are encrypted with AES-GCM using a key held separately from the notes database in Android Keystore. Notes can be exported as plain text, Markdown, or JSON; encrypted backups use a passphrase with PBKDF2 and AES-GCM, so protected notes and encrypted backups remain unreadable outside the device. It suits Android users who want a locally maintained writing tool with openly licensed source code, in the Reading & Writing category.
Version 1.0.1 requires Android 7.0 or later and the arm64-v8a architecture. Updates from the F-Droid review of 1.0.0 explain when a reminder cannot appear because notification permission is denied, restrict screenshot blocking to moments when a protected note is open, improve button and note-badge contrast, add screen-reader labels for trash actions, show live search-result counts, support heading navigation, and report database failures instead of ignoring them.

What's new in v1.0.1
Fixes from the F-Droid review of 1.0.0.
A reminder set while notification permission is denied now explains that it will not appear, instead of silently staying unset. Screenshots are blocked only while a protected note is open, not everywhere in the app.
Also an accessibility pass: better contrast on buttons and note badges, screen-reader labels for trash actions, a live search result count, and heading navigation. Database failures are now reported instead of ignored.
