Last month I posted HelixNotes here and some of you asked about mobile. Version 1.2.1 ships with an Android APK. Same codebase, Rust + Tauri 2.0, no separate app. Since last post: Android support, Ollama for local AI, graph view performance improvements, wiki-link navigation, and a bunch of mobile UX polish. Direct APK download from the site. IzzyOnDroid submission in progress. AGPL-3.0, source on Codeberg.
I think there’s something really appealing about being able to open your notes without needing the original app or a specific cloud service. That’s a much better kind of “ownership” than just having an export button somewhere.
Is it vibecoded?
AI-assisted, yes.
It’s a pretty polished notes app, though couldn’t see that it supports encryption.
Doesn’t look like it
No, notes are plain .md files on your disk. Encryption was never the goal.
Looks interesting. Any plans for an iOS version?
Definitely, yes. I’m trying to tackle them one by one.
