About Saber
Saber provides a handwriting workspace for Android and iPhone. Write or highlight on a page, work with images and PDFs, and organize pages in nested folders. Recent notes remain accessible from the home screen.
Its dark mode can invert notes, images, and PDFs, allowing light ink on a dark page. Synchronization can use the official Saber server, another Nextcloud provider, or a self-hosted server. The app uses a separate encryption password for synchronized notes.
The app is free to use. The publisher's official server provides 5 GB of storage on its free plan, with larger storage plans available through sponsorship. The current publisher privacy policy states that Saber is ad-free.
