Markdown notes, task lists, Nextcloud sync and more. A fork of the Quillnote app
About this app
Quillpad is a fork of an original app called Quillnote. Quillpad is fully free and open-source. It will never show you ads, ask you for unnecessary permissions or upload your notes anywhere without you knowing.
Take beautiful markdown notes whenever you feel inspired, place them in notebooks and tag them accordingly. Stay organized by making task lists, set reminders and keep everything in one place by attaching related files.
With Quillpad, you can: - Take notes with Markdown support - Make task lists - Pin your favorite notes to the top - Hide notes you do not want others to see - Set reminders for events you do not want to miss - Add voice recordings and other file attachments - Group related notes in notebooks - Add tags to notes - Archive notes you want out of your way - Search through notes - Sync with Nextcloud (requires the Nextcloud Notes app installed on the Nextcloud server used for syncing) - Backup your notes to a zip file which you can restore at a later time - Toggle between Light and Dark mode - Choose between multiple color schemes

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be io.github.quillpad is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.5.11 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Quillpad first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Quillpad, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Quillpad do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
