Data

Hyprnote stores all data locally using JSON and Markdown files. Nothing leaves your device unless you explicitly use cloud features.

Data Location

PlatformPath
macOS~/Library/Application Support/hyprnote/
Linux~/.local/share/hyprnote/

In development mode, the folder name changes to com.hyprnote.dev or com.hyprnote.staging.

Export

Select any note and use the export menu to save as PDF, Markdown, JSON, or VTT (with speaker information).

Backup

Copy the entire data directory to back up your notes. Include this folder in your regular backup routine. Since data is stored as human-readable JSON and Markdown files, you can also version control your notes with Git.
