What you need

Notetree is a client for your own Nextcloud. It does not come with its own accounts or cloud storage. To use it you need:

Without a Nextcloud account, Notetree can't be used. Don't have one yet? · How to enable Collectives and Notes

Features

Don't have Nextcloud yet?

You have two options. You can host Nextcloud yourself on your own server or NAS, or rent managed Nextcloud hosting from a provider. Nextcloud lists providers at nextcloud.com/providers. Either way, make sure the Collectives and/or Notes app is enabled (see below).

Then open Notetree, enter your server's web address (for example cloud.example.com) and sign in through Nextcloud's login page.

Enabling Collectives and Notes

Notetree shows the content of the Collectives and Notes apps on your server. If the app connects but shows nothing, neither of them is enabled for your account. If you are the Nextcloud admin:

  1. Sign in to Nextcloud in your browser with an admin account.
  2. Open the account menu (your avatar, top right) and choose Apps.
  3. Search for Collectives and choose Download and enable. Do the same for Notes if you want your notes in Notetree.
  4. Collectives also needs the Teams app (formerly “Circles”). It ships with Nextcloud and is usually already enabled. If Collectives doesn't work, search for Teams under Apps and enable it.
  5. If an app is limited to certain groups (Limit to groups on the app's page), make sure your account is in one of them.
  6. Back in Notetree, pull down on the start screen to sync.

Not the admin? This applies to most hosted Nextcloud accounts too. Ask your provider or admin to enable Collectives and/or Notes for your account.

Your data stays yours

Notetree talks only to the Nextcloud server you connect. There is no Notetree backend, no analytics, no ads and no tracking. You sign in through Nextcloud's own login flow, so your password is never stored in the app. Read the full Privacy Policy.
