What is Memos hosting?

Self-host Memos in one click on your own VPS

Memos is the open-source note-taking app by usememos: a private timeline where you jot down a thought, a link or a to-do in seconds, tag it with #ideas or #work and find it again later. It feels like a chat with yourself, written in Markdown. With Memos hosting at ZAP-Hosting, that timeline runs on your own KVM VPS, deployed in one click through One-Click Apps (Coolify), so you skip the Docker setup and your notes never sit in someone else's cloud.

A managed Memos service runs the app for you; with Memos hosting on your own VPS you get the whole server with root access. Choose SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL, reach the instance under your own subdomain, export your data whenever you like and run other self-hosted apps on the same VPS. Memos itself sends no telemetry, so your notes, your server and your data stay under your control.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Memos

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Memos hosting at ZAP-Hosting runs Memos by usememos, the open-source self-hosted note-taking app, on your own KVM VPS. You deploy it in one click through One-Click Apps, powered by Coolify, and keep full root access. You pick the server location in Europe or America and the plan size that fits your notes.

  • Open-source Memos by usememos, MIT-licensed
  • One-click deploy via One-Click Apps (Coolify)
  • Your own KVM VPS with root access

Order a VPS, open the One-Click Apps area in the ZapX panel, select Memos and start the deploy. One-Click Apps sets up the container through Coolify, so you don't write a Docker Compose file or run Docker commands yourself. Once it's running, open the app URL and create your first account, which becomes the admin. Read the One-Click Apps guide

  • No manual Docker or Compose setup
  • The first account becomes the Memos admin

Memos itself is very light. The one-click setup through One-Click Apps needs at least 2 GB RAM and 30 GB storage, so choose a plan that meets that. Go bigger if you store many attachments, invite several users or want to run more self-hosted apps on the same server. The pricing section lists every plan with live prices.

  • Minimum for One-Click Apps: 2 GB RAM, 30 GB storage
  • More storage for large attachment libraries
  • More RAM and CPU for extra apps

Yes, Memos is open-source software under the MIT license, so there's no license fee. You only pay for the VPS it runs on. The price depends on the VPS plan, term and location you choose, and the pricing section shows live prices from the shop. You can cancel anytime; the cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term.

  • No license fee for Memos
  • You pay only for the VPS plan
  • Cancel anytime

Your notes live in the Memos database on your VPS, and you decide how to protect them. With the optional ZapX Pass you can create VPS Backups and restore them in the panel. On top of that, Memos lets you export your data, and root access lets you copy the data folder to another location with tools like rsync. Learn how Backups work

  • VPS Backups and restores with the optional ZapX Pass
  • Data export from within Memos
  • Your own copies via rsync over SSH

A managed Memos service runs and maintains the app for you. On your own VPS you get the whole server: root access over SSH, a choice of SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL as the database and room for more self-hosted apps through One-Click Apps. Your notes stay on your server, and the data belongs entirely to you. Connect to your VPS via SSH

  • Root access over SSH
  • SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL
  • More apps via One-Click Apps, full data ownership

Yes. Memos runs in any mobile browser, so you open your instance URL on iPhone or Android and sign in. You can add it to your home screen as a web app, and it reads the same timeline straight from your VPS. A note written on your phone shows up on your laptop a moment later.

  • Works in any mobile browser
  • Add it to your home screen as a web app
  • Same timeline on iPhone, Android and desktop

You choose from ZAP-Hosting locations in Europe and America when you order your VPS. Pick the one closest to you and the people who use your Memos instance, because a nearby location keeps the timeline snappy. Many North American users start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles.

Why does Memos show a 502 error after a restart?
Usually the Memos container hasn't finished starting or has stopped. I'd check the container status and logs for the app first, then confirm the data volume is mounted. I can walk you through each step.
Where do I find the logs?
Open your VPS in the panel, go to One-Click Apps and open Memos in Coolify to see the container logs. Look for database or permission errors near the end.
