Frequently asked questions
Do I have to pay for Joplin Cloud to synchronize notes?
No. Joplin also supports other sync targets, including Dropbox, OneDrive, and Nextcloud. Joplin Cloud is a separate paid service; each target has its own storage requirements.
Is Joplin end-to-end encryption enabled automatically?
No. Enable it on one device and let that setup synchronize to the others as described in Joplin's documentation. Keep the encryption password safe.
