Chrome Notes

About

A simple, distraction-free notepad that lives right in your browser toolbar.

Jot down quick thoughts, keep a running to-do list, or use it as an extra clipboard between windows and apps. Everything is stored locally on your device — no account, no sync servers, no ads, and it works completely offline.

• Multiple notes — create, rename, switch, and delete; everything auto-saves as you type.
• Focus mode — a clean, centered, distraction-free writing view.
• Light and dark themes — a warm paper-and-ink look that is easy on the eyes.
• Speak aloud (text-to-speech) — have your notes read back to you.
• Dictation (speech-to-text) — click the mic and talk; continuous listening mode types as you speak.
• Open in its own window or go full screen for longer writing sessions.
• Right-click selected text on a page and send it to a new note.
• Save any note as a .txt file.
• Full backup and restore — export all notes and settings to one JSON file and import them back anytime.
• Adjustable font size.
• Quick buttons for cut, copy, paste, and select all.
• Keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+X (Command+Shift+X on Mac) to open instantly.
