Mar 11, 2026

Turtl is a secure, collaborative notebook application designed for privacy-focused users. It offers encrypted note storage, team collaboration features, and self-hosting capabilities, making it an appealing alternative to mainstream note-taking services.

Turtl provides a secure, encrypted platform for creating, sharing, and collaborating on notes and files.

Maturity: The project is actively maintained with recent commits, though it has a relatively small user base and a moderate number of open issues.

Community: The app is well-received in open-source communities for its privacy-oriented features, though some users have reported issues with data loss.

Pros

  • + Strong focus on security and privacy with encrypted storage
  • + Open-source and self-hostable for greater control
  • + Collaborative features for teams and shared spaces

Cons

  • - Early maturity with limited installs and some open issues
  • - Reports of occasional data loss or account issues
