Sticky Notes has been part of Windows OS for a long time, and many have been using it as a note-taking app. However, Microsoft barely paid attention to it, and the iconic app received little to no feature updates over the years. That's what forced users to look for Sticky Notes alternatives for Windows 10 in the first place.

It wasn’t until Windows 10 when Microsoft finally updated Sticky Notes with an option to sync it across devices using OneNote. A case of too little too late. Let’s see what the competition has to offer and which one you should use.

1. Stickies

Stickies comes with many features that you would love and have been missing in the original Sticky Notes. You can add links and images to notes. You can change the font type, size, and color to your liking. Is the screen is getting too cluttered for you? You can set alarms and hide notes until the set day and time comes.

Another cool feature is the ability to attach the note to a particular app or software. Say, you took a note related to Microsoft Store. The next time you launch that app, the corresponding note will pop-up automatically. Finally, it comes with add-ons that you can download to supercharge Stickies note app.

2. Google Keep

While you can transfer notes created in Stickies from one PC to another, it’s not the same as the cloud sync feature that other note-taking apps offer. That's why I recommend Google Keep, which was inspired from sticky notes. It is a quick and simple way to create colorful notes on the web, Windows 10, Android and iOS.

You can create a text, image, to-do, and even voice notes in Keep. It comes with OCR that allows you to grab the text in images and even search for them. Keep will automatically transcribe your audio notes to text and attach it for your perusal. You can set time or location-based reminders, and finding old notes is easy with Google’s famed search prowess. Finally, you can invite friends to collaborate on a single note in real-time. Check our compilation of Google Keep tricks to start using it like a pro.

You can install Keep on Windows 10 as well as on your Chrome browser as an extension.

3. Simple Sticky Notes

Most Sticky Notes alternatives for Windows 10 don’t have a centralized hub where you can view or jump between any note. They mimic a real-life scenario where all of them are just lying there. No dashboard. Simple Sticky Notes solves this problem.

You can change the appearance of the notes and fonts easily.

One cool feature is the ability to create folders to house different notes. That makes everything much tidier and easy to manage. There is a store where you can download backgrounds for notes and sounds.

Simple Sticky Notes is a good Sticky Notes alternative with just a few extra features thrown in for better management and organization.

4. Hott Notes

By default, you can create notes with that particular day’s date as a title. You may change it to something else later. Like other Sticky Notes alternatives for Windows 10 mentioned before, you can change the font type, color, and theme of the notes. You can also set reminders and all the notes are easily manageable using the note manager.

One cool feature is the ability to use the Stylus to scribble or draw inside notes. Another nice addition is the wastebasket. That is where all your deleted notes go so you can restore them later if need be. Sticky Notes never had this feature.

5. Zoho Notebook

Zoho Notebook offers every feature we discussed above, and then some more. It is available on every platform you could think of. You can create notebooks to store notes. You can change the appearance and customize them to your liking. Creating different types of notes is easy, and setting reminders is easier.

Advanced features include gesture support, tags, passcode, and fingerprint security, version history, and free unlimited cloud storage. What else could you ask for? Zoho Notebook is a powerful Sticky Notes alternative that’s platform agnostic.

The team behind Zoho Notebook is also very active and keeps adding new features. While they say that the app will always remain free, they do have other apps in their suite. That's how they make money. That's how they can offer Notebook as a free product.

What is Stickies?

Stickies is a PC utility I wrote to try to cut down on the number of yellow notes I was leaving stuck to my monitor. It is a computerised version of those notes.

The design goal behind Stickies is that the program is small and simple. Stickies will not mess with your system files, or write to the registry. Stickies stores information in a single SQLITE database file.

Stickies will never support animated dancing figures, or play 'Greensleeves'. They are instead yellow rectangular windows into which you can put some notes. Once created, they will stay on screen until you take them away. Just like a real sticky piece of paper.

Main features

• Once on screen, notes will remain where placed until closed, even through reboots
• Stickies appearance can be customised; fonts, colours and buttons may be changed, and styles saved. Notes can be resized.
• Stickies can store text or images
• Stickies can be hidden for a certain period, until a specified date and time, or to wake every day, week or month, to act as reminders.
• Stickies can have alarms set to ensure you notice them at a point you choose
• International language, Unicode and RTL text support
• Stickies can snap to each other and to the sides of the screen to keep them neatly lined up
• Stickies can be attached to an application, web site, document or folder so they only show when it's on screen
• Stickies can be transferred from one machine to another either over a TCP/IP network connection, or by using an SMTP mail server or MAPI client:
• Hierarchical friends list, which may be automatically transferred from other friends
• Stickies works with Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10
• Stickies is small and simple, it writes to a database file, and does not alter the registry
• AD network administrators can use Group Policy to control settings
• API to allow integration with other applications
• ...and Stickies is completely free!

Accolades

Since I made Stickies available on the web, some people have been kind enough to write to me saying nice things about it:

Stickies has the ability to support some other languages for the menus and dialog than English. However, as I don't speak other languages, I need help from others to translate the English language in Stickies. If you think you might be able to help translate around 1000 words and phrases, please drop me a line.
