#8 How to Share Your Notes
Tap the share button in the navigation rail — that's it. You get a private link, social sharing, and email, all in one place.
Share a private link
- Open a note and tap the share button
- Tap Copy Link — a private URL is copied to your clipboard
- Send it to anyone — they can read it in their browser, no account needed
Your link looks like: penpage.com/s/abc1234
The link doesn't contain your name or handle — it can't be traced back to your profile.
How long does the link last?
By default, shared links expire in 7 days. To change it, open the page's Info panel and set Share Until:
| Option | Duration |
|---|---|
24h |
Quick share, auto-expires tomorrow |
7d |
Default — good for most cases |
30d |
Longer projects or references |
∞ |
Link stays active until you delete the page |
The same panel shows when the current link expires.
Share to social media
The share dialog has buttons for:
- LINE / WhatsApp / Telegram — opens the app with your link ready to send
- Facebook / X — posts your link with a preview card
- Email — enter an address and PenPage sends a styled email with your note content
No copy-paste needed. One tap opens the right app.
What recipients see
- A clean, read-only view of your note
- A Save button — one tap saves a copy to their own PenPage
- A QR code at the bottom — scan it to open the same page on a phone
- That's how you got here, too
Stop a share
Changed your mind? Shared pages live in the Shared folder — delete the page there and the link stops working immediately.
Want it permanently public instead?
If you want your note to live on your public profile — not just a temporary link — see #9 How to Publish Publicly.
