What is CipherNotes?

Why Cipher?

  • Your phone is your vault. Everything stays on device.
  • No accounts. No login. No tracking who you are.
  • Small footprint. No bloat.
  • Auditable. Open source. Every line of code visible.
  • Privacy by design. No internet permission. Zero telemetry hooks.

Privacy by design

  • No INTERNET permission in AndroidManifest
  • Network security config blocks all outbound traffic at OS level
  • Passwords never stored — derived on-demand via PBKDF2
  • Encryption uses: PBKDF2 (200k iterations) + AES-256-GCM
  • All data stays on device — Room SQLite database
