Common issues

  • "This access token is invalid or has been revoked." The agent's access was revoked or the token was deleted. Reconnect the connector (it will re-run the OAuth flow), or generate a fresh token from your Account page.
  • A write fails with stale_write. That's the editor conflict guard, not an outage: the note changed (usually on your phone) after the agent last read it. The agent should re-read the note and retry — nothing was overwritten.
  • Rewriting a note's body is refused because it embeds a photo. By design: agents see photos redacted as ![photo], so a full rewrite would destroy the image. Ask the agent to use replace_in_note or append_to_note instead.
  • Semantic search is unavailable. Keyword search keeps working; retry semantic or hybrid mode later.

Sharing into NoteMCP from other apps on iPhone

On Android, an installed web app can take a place in the share sheet, so other apps can hand things straight to NoteMCP. iOS has no equivalent — NoteMCP cannot put itself there. A Shortcut can, and takes about a minute to build:

  1. Open Shortcuts and tap +.
  2. Add URL Encode, and set the thing it encodes to Shortcut Input.
  3. Add Text. Type https://notemcp.com/capture?text=, then insert the URL Encoded Text variable directly after it, with no space between.
  4. Add Open URLs, and point it at that Text.
  5. Open the shortcut's details (ⓘ), turn on Show in Share Sheet, and set the accepted input to Text and URLs.
  6. Name it Save to NoteMCP.

That one parameter covers both things you might share: a link arrives as a link, with its title and thumbnail; anything else arrives as the note's text.

Two things to expect. It opens in Safari rather than in the installed app, because iOS gives a web app no way to claim a URL — so sign in there once, and it stays signed in. And it carries links and text; photos still go through NoteMCP itself.

Plans, storage and cancelling

Free and Plus both save everything, forever. What Free limits is how much of your collection a connected AI can reach — the first 400 notes — along with 25 MB of attachments and 30 minutes of voice transcription. Plus lifts the note limit entirely and gives 5 hours of transcription a billing period.

Plus attachment storage is unmetered rather than unlimited: nothing counts your megabytes and no upload is refused, on the understanding that the account is one person keeping their own notes. If an account ever grows into something else — a media library, an archive being bulk-loaded — we will email you before anything changes, never after.

Cancelling is self-serve, from your Account page → Change plan or cancel. That opens Creem, the seller of record, where you can also switch between monthly and yearly, change your card and download invoices. Cancelling keeps Plus on until the end of the period you have already paid for; after that the account returns to Free with every note still saved, still searchable and still exportable — nothing is deleted for going back.

A Plus granted by hand rather than bought, or a subscription whose billing profile has not settled yet, shows no Change plan or cancel button — the Account page explains which of the two it is and links back here to reach us instead.

Taking your notes with you

Account → Export everything downloads every note you have as one Markdown file — bodies, tags, dates, links and voice transcripts, oldest first. It is plain text with no NoteMCP in it, so it opens in Obsidian, in a text editor, or in whatever comes next.

One note on its own has the same button, in the row with the pin and the bin. It downloads the whole thread the note belongs to rather than the single entry, so a note and its continuations arrive together — asking for a continuation gets you the same file as asking for the note it continues.

Recovering a deleted note

Deleting a note — yours or an agent's — hides it rather than erasing it, but there is no restore button yet. Email us with roughly when the note was written and we can bring it back.

Revoking an agent

Your Account page lists every access token. Revoking one cuts that agent off immediately; your notes are untouched.
