Optional End-to-End Encryption (E2EE)

Optional End-to-End Encryption (E2EE)

Enable End-to-End Encryption when saving text to protect content from anyone without the decryption key — including the server.

How E2EE works here

  • Your browser generates an AES-GCM key
  • Text is encrypted before it is sent
  • The key is placed in the URL fragment (#k=...) — never sent to the server
  • Share the full URL including #k= with recipients

Requirements

E2EE needs a secure context: HTTPS or http://127.0.0.1. On plain HTTP hostnames (e.g. some local dev domains), the checkbox is disabled with an explanation.

If decryption fails, you will see an error — wrong key, corrupted data, or an incomplete link.
