### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-02, version 2.0.1*

Use this app all the time, so useful.

### 3/5 — Love the app but

*2026-07-31, version 2.0.1*

Love the app itself as I have been using it for years but it’s constantly asking me to rate and review when I’m in the middle of trying to use it. I get rating it once or twice but every month sometimes even more often is becoming frustrating and interfering with the use.

### 5/5 — Super helpful!

*2026-07-28, version 2.0.1*

I use this app many, many times every single day — for jotting quick notes about what I need, where to go, who to call, when to take meds, library books to get, where I parked, stops to make, and things to add to other lists (projects, research, etc.) at home. The app’s 5 pages are great for rotating tasks and grouping ideas, and I love changing the color of the notes every so often to help the sticky notes stand out on my home screen.  Simple, effective, easy to use — I couldn’t manage without it!

### 5/5 — Great overall

*2026-07-22, version 2.0.1*

It does the basics for sticky notes. I would like to see adding multiple different notes as a widget so I don’t have to open the app to scroll thru them. But the widget feature is nice. Not a lot of info can be put on one, so shorthand works well, but at the same time, how much info needs to go on a sticky note anyhow :) I’ve had this app for years, and it has worked well for me. As a side note, it’d be nice if it asked if I’m sure I want to clear the note, cuz sometimes I accidentally bump that part of the screen and my thoughts are gone, lol.

### 2/5 — Post it notes

*2026-07-16, version 2.0.1*

I wish it was not several pages. It should be that you can post multiple separate pages instead of flipping pages

### 5/5 — Best for Reminder’s

*2026-07-07, version 2.0.1*

I love this app because I have it on my Home Screen with all my appointment and other reminders. 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-07-02, version 2.0.1*

I like this app.  I use it all the time.  Works better than the name brand app

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!

*2026-07-02, version 2.0.1*

Love this APP!!!

### 5/5 — Simple

*2026-06-30, version 2.0.1*

Love the simplicity of this app.  It works great for me… better than others I’ve tried.  Thanks for creating it!

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-06-29, version 2.0.1*

Easy to download easy to use. I just wish I could have more than five sticky notes.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-06-19, version 2.0.1*

Easy, simple sticky note widget for quick reminders. No adds or pop ups. 5/5

### 3/5 — Maybe it’s me

*2026-06-13, version 2.0.1*

Is there a way of adding more than one note to my screen?

### 5/5 — Makes my life easier

*2026-06-10, version 2.0.1*

This is is the best sticky note app ever, I remember what I need to do as it appears on the screen of my phone. Thank you developer!

### 5/5 — Awesome App ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-06-08, version 2.0.1*

I love simple…at least once. Most apps have too many working parts. Not just a note app but all the things we do every day. That’s okay.  
So, simple is what “I” need, this does just what it’s supposed to…. And I love it!

### 4/5 — More colours please

*2026-06-07, version 2.0.1*

This app would be much improved with different note colours per page 😊

### 4/5 — Great but…

*2026-05-30, version 2.0.1*

It seemed this was exactly what I was looking for until I realised it doesn’t sync with my other device.

### 5/5 — Does its job

*2026-05-24, version 2.0.1*

It works. I use it it daily. Good place to have a daily quote or daily meditation as a reminder

### 4/5 — Awesome!!! But wish there was a “confirm clear” msg

*2026-05-15, version 2.0.1*

I’ve had this only a week or two but think it’s awesome! It helps me focus on the top things I need to do or that I suddenly remember I forgot. Being able to have separate notes for different categories is very helpful. 

As others have mentioned, hitting that “clear” button by mistake can be really awful. Sure wish there was a chance to confirm or cancel.

But, it’s a useful and truly free app, so I want my parting words to the developer to be “THANK YOU”!

### 1/5 — Bigger

*2026-08-11, version 2.0.1*

Could use a few more lines to type notes. Have to be careful or can it a button on side of phone and erase list. I screenshot it when done w list and go shopping

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2026-06-09, version 2.0.1*

This app sucks
Paper color is ugly
Can’t change font
Or font size
Not enough room for notes
When minimized it doesn’t show you the list only Part of it.
Can’t move text left right center
Update button doesn’t do anything
Can’t change anything, you get what you get.
Dumping this app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-19, version 2.0.1*

I followed instructions exactly and can’t figure this out. A simple app should be intuitive and easy to use. It doesn’t get more simple than just needing to post a simple reminder note on your phone screen! Fire these designers.

### 1/5 — It works but not exactly

*2024-08-21, version 2.0.1*

I like how it gives us five pages to write stuff down. But only the last updated one is able to be seen on my screen. I wish I could scroll through and select the note I want to see for that day.

### 1/5 — Inadequate instructions.

*2024-05-10, version 2.0.1*

There’s no istructions for getting the note I’ve just printed to appear on the Home Screen with my writing on it, so what’s the point? 
It doesn’t do what it claims to do. I don’t see any button that transfers the note to the Home Screen. What am I not seeing?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t show as a widget

*2023-08-23, version 2.0.1*

This app claims to display as a widget on Home Screen but it doesn’t. Don’t bother.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-03-21, version 2.0.1*

In a nut shell it’s crap. I added a note and can’t see how to add it to my Home Screen and no widget is available either.

### 1/5 — Pop ups

*2022-10-21, version 2.0.1*

Too many pop ups. What a shame.

### 1/5 — Simply doesn’t work.

*2022-02-19, version 2.0.1*

I have OS 15; maybe developer is no longer supporting the app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with new iOS

*2018-09-20, version 1.6*

Please update this app so it works with iOS 12. It is not useful without the update.

### 5/5 — Simple

*2026-08-31, version 2.0.1*

Super cool little sticky note app! All I wanted was something simple and straight to the point. I didn’t want or need any tricks bells or whistles. Just something to jot things down on to remember and that’s what this is! I love it! Thank you! (More colors would be fun but I am in no way unhappy!)

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2026-08-31, version 2.0.1*

Very helpful. Always stays the same, you can change it whenever you’d like and you can even make it a widget on your home screen to always look at.

### 5/5 — Quicky Sticky

*2026-08-29, version 2.0.1*

Great app. Simple and easy to use

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-08-29, version 2.0.1*

Thanks a lot!

### 5/5 — Simple app that does what it says

*2026-08-23, version 2.0.1*

This is great for taking a simple note that you want to keep visible in a widget on your home screen. If you want to keep complex lists or large notes this isn’t the right app for you. I like that you can keep multiple notes. I would love if there was a way to have different colours for each note, and a way to flip through them when interacting from a widget, though I don’t know if that is even possible. A small improvement would be to retain changes made to a note when moving to the next page, without having to hit Update. The Update button should also be available when flipping to another note even if you haven’t typed anything new, as this changes the view in the widget. But overall a solid app for simple needs.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-16, version 2.0.1*

I’ve lost some notes. I would like to be asked if I mean the note to be cleared before actually been cleared

### 5/5 — Quality Widget that IS actually free

*2026-08-16, version 2.0.1*

Thank you to the developer for this great utility! It’s rare to find something that works this well and is freely shared; your efforts are appreciated. 
    The other reviews touch on my same nit-picks: font choice, alignment. I don’t really use the multiple page feature: 
• Type about four lines of text on your note, then swipe (right to left) —only in the write/edit interface, not the widget display—to create subsequent pages. 
• Text doesn’t wrap from one page to the next that I’ve found. 
• When viewing the sticky on your phone screen you only see the first page. 
   Personally I use it as just a one-page sticky to make me focus on my top 3 to-do items. The size forces brevity, which I have come to appreciate.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-14, version 2.0.1*

I use this app daily!  I have it as a large widget on the front of my phone, and it is invaluable!

### 5/5 — Great  app

*2026-08-12, version 2.0.1*

I use this constantly. Easy to update

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2026-08-05, version 2.0.1*

I just want to write down a few things to pick up at the store or when my doctors appointment is.  I don't want a chart, a graph, an alarm, I don't want to mail it to anyone, I just want it to be "easily findable" and this is just that. Thank you
