Privacy

My Notes does not include advertising, analytics, or tracking. By default, notes, attachments, and preferences remain locally on the device. Google Drive sync is optional and starts only after you sign in, review the first-sync estimate, and confirm it. When enabled, the selected notes, attachments, tasks, tags, categories, and preferences are transferred to the Google Drive of the account you chose, solely to provide sync. Disabling sync leaves the local data available on the device.

Build Gradle + Spotless

Building Locally

  1. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/pasichDev/MyNotes.git
  2. Open in Android Studio (Hedgehog or newer).
  3. Let Gradle sync finish.
  4. Install git hooks (one-time):
    git config core.hooksPath .githooks
  5. Run on a device or emulator (API 26+).

Development

Code style: Spotless + Google Java Format (AOSP, 4-space indent).

# Check formatting
./gradlew :app:spotlessCheck

# Auto-fix formatting
./gradlew :app:spotlessApply

Git hooks:

  • pre-commit — runs spotlessCheck (~15s). Fails fast on format violations.
  • pre-push — runs lintDebug (~2–3 min). Skip with SKIP_LINT=1 git push.
