Add Safe Notes / Notes and Tasks
Safe Notes
- Safe Notes (https://github.com/keshav-space/safenotes) - is a privacy-focused note manager
- License: GPL 3
- Why do you think this helps users privacy?: privacy-focused note manager
- Under what section should this service be listed?: Notes and Tasks
- Additional comments / info: Safe Notes is a privacy-focused note manager which provides an inbuild encrypted storage. It imploys rigorously tested AES-256 encryption standard to store user notes. All the notes are stored locally on the user's device. Contrary to the ongoing frenzy of "move everything to cloud" we believe in "localization of user data" giving you the control of your data and not some third-party cloud service provider. We know you gotta change your device once in a while that's why Safe Notes also provides a secure migration facility, which allows you to export and import your notes without having to compromise the sanctity of your data. Word of advice, keep your passphrase long and secret. May encryption protect us all!
(Sorry to interrupt (again))
Everything looks very impressive and the fact that it is available both on Google Play and F-Droid means someone has been willing to step up to the challenge of providing a real name.
I would just like to draw your attention to the single 1-star review someone left on Google Play:

I haven't investigated the issues that are open on GitHub, but if what this person is saying is true, this is actually a very serious problem. I am concerned.
