Questions

Can you actually read my notes?

No. With an encryption passphrase set (strongly recommended when you link a vault), your notes and their file names are encrypted with AES-256-GCM on your device. What reaches our servers and storage is ciphertext with random IDs. We couldn't hand your notes to anyone even if we wanted to.

What happens if I forget my passphrase?

Your synced data becomes unrecoverable — that's the flip side of real end-to-end encryption. Your local files stay untouched, so you can reset and re-sync with a new passphrase.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes — iOS and Android. Notes sync while Obsidian is open (mobile operating systems don't allow background sync for any plugin).

How is it so much cheaper?

Architecture, not corner-cutting. Your files travel directly between your device and object storage; our server only coordinates metadata. That's radically cheaper to run, and we pass it on. How sync works →

Is this allowed by Obsidian?

Yes — community plugins may require accounts and payment as long as it's disclosed, which we do. Obsyncian is an independent project, not affiliated with Obsidian.

Can I self-host the server?

The plugin lets you point at any server URL, and the sync API is documented. A self-hosting guide is planned.
