Hi there! I understand you're able to open the Inkpad Notepad app on your WebKit-based Android 11 device, but it doesn't show your notes. Let's work together to figure out what's going on.

To start, can you tell me:
- Did this issue begin recently or after an app update?
- Are you signed into your Inkpad account within the app?
- Do you remember if your notes were saved locally on the device or synced to a cloud account?
- Have you tried restarting your device or closing and reopening the app?

Meanwhile, here are some general steps we can try:

1. Force Close & Reopen the App:
- Go to your device’s Settings > Apps > Inkpad Notepad.
- Tap "Force Stop".
- Then reopen the app and check if notes appear.

2. Clear Cache (without deleting notes):
- In the same app info screen, tap "Storage".
- Tap "Clear Cache" (not Clear Data to avoid losing saved notes).
- Open the app and check again.

3. Check App Permissions:
- Ensure Inkpad Notepad has permission to access storage, so it can read your note files.

4. Sign Out and Sign Back In (if applicable):
- If you use an account to sync notes, try logging out and back in to refresh your data.

5. Review Inkpad's Web Support:
- Inkpad’s official support advises enabling JavaScript for full functionality when using the web version—just in case you’re syncing notes through their website1.

If none of these help, can you please share if you see any error messages or if the notes section is blank or loading indefinitely? This will help me guide you further.

Are you comfortable trying these steps?
