  • Not that I know of. Obsidian sync between multiple devices is end-to-end encrypted but it all ends up unencrypted on device. Some plugins let you encrypt sensitive information/notes (Meld Encrypt) - I haven’t used it in some time but when I did it was a little finicky.

    Some other options:

    • Use disk encryption on your devices.
    • Install a Linux distro in a virtual machine with encrypted home partition exclusively for running Obsidian. (It’s like electron except you’re bundling an operating system)
    • Use android work mode/insular to isolate Obsidian’s files from other apps.






  • I’m so annoyed with myself for not giving Excalidraw more of a try. When I first installed Obsidian it was one of the plugins I tried out, but for some reason didn’t end up using it. I had a Galaxy Note, but I never thought to install the plugin on the phone, I just assumed that it’d be a little janky.

    Recently however I was looking for a cross-platform handwritten notes app that would work with my iPad w/ Apple Pencil and Galaxy Note w/ S-Pen… low and behold after trying all these other apps I remembered Excalidraw and decided to see what it was like. Holy crap, how did I miss this? Under my nose the whole time.
