Janus Notes is an open source note taking program for iPhone/iPad (and Macintosh) for that seriously respect your right to privacy.
It is named after the Latin God Janus, depicted as having two faces since he looks to the future and to the past. Or, may be, cloud storage and privacy. Or Macintoshes and iPhone/iPad. Or sharing and control.
Start collecting photos, links, video and audio clips. All your data will be seamlessly synced via iCloud to every iPhone/iPad or Macintosh you have. You wont forget anymore what you were thinking about when later you are on your mac writing that clever post.
You can add attachments to the notes and they will live side by side with your notes.
You can share the notes among different Macs and to your iDevices using Dropbox. Or not. Its your call.
You can seamlessly share the notes among different Macs and to your iDevices using iCloud. That will happen automatically if you have iCloud configured. Your notes’ text will be encrypted on the iCloud storage so to avoid the eavesdroppers.
Please note that attachments are not encrypted in any case. The source code is available (MIT licensed) on GitHub under ilTofa/janusnotes.
We understand that note-taking is a very personal thing and we tried very hard to have your data as safe as possible.
We have *no* access to your dropbox beside the specific folder that we use for storing notes. Your data is safe.
If youre privacy-conscious you should lock your iPhone with a code (this will encrypt the notes cache on your iPhone). Remember to lock your devices when you leave them.
This app do not "phone home" nor access anything else. There is no analytics package nor 3d party ads for this reason. That means that we have no idea on how you use the app and what is happening. Please send your feedback and suggestions!
