Questions
Is it free?
Bean Jar is completely free. There are no ads, no account and no paid version.
Does it work offline and on my phone?
Yes. It runs in your web browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and keeps working without internet after your first visit. You can add it to your home screen from the browser menu to open it like an app.
Is my data private?
Everything you add stays in this browser on your device. Nothing is sent to Favabeans or anyone else, and there is no tracking of you.
Can I lock my jar?
Yes. You can set an optional passcode, and your jar is then encrypted in your browser. It can’t be recovered if you forget the passcode, so save a backup file too.
Can friends send me beans?
Yes. A friend writes a bean on Bean Jar and sends you the link it makes, by message or email. You tap the link and choose “Add to my jar”. The bean travels inside the link itself, so nothing is stored by Favabeans and no one can add beans without you. You can also share a “send me a bean” link with your first name.
Do I need an account?
No. Open Bean Jar and start. Everything is saved in this browser, and you can turn on encrypted sync if you want it on your other devices too.
