### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-05-17, version 1.2.0*

### 1/5 — Stickies - Pro Won’t work

*2026-01-28, version 1.2.0*

I can get only one sticky. Can I get a refund

### 4/5 — Functional

*2026-01-04*

The app delivers as advertised & is easy to use - I have read some of the reviews with some noting opportunities for improvement & the developer committing to implementing said improvements however it does not appear the developer implemented the changes (some are a year or more old) - I feel the app would be a lot better of the developer took continuous improvement seriously, which clearly they do not. Example: it would be nice to be able to edit notes directly from the home screen without having to long click the app, then edit within the pop-up. UPDATE: DEVELOPER TOOK THE TIME TO RIGHT AN ACTUAL RESPONSE TO MY REVIEW WHICH IS APPRECIATED - INCREASED MY RATING ADDITIONAL STAR.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to review Stickies. I’m actively working on an a major update that will bring many requested features to Stickies (including in-app editing). I cannot give you a precise release window but I’m committed to launch it early next year.
