Sticky Notes & Color Widget is an app from Hive 5 Studio for writing colorful sticky notes, checklists and reminders, and pinning them to your Home Screen as widgets. Type a note or dictate it with your voice, color-code it, add a photo, and keep everything synced across your Apple devices with iCloud. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Sticky notes and quick memos: jot down an idea, a phone number or a thought in seconds. - Checklists and to-do lists: tick off groceries, packing lists, chores and daily tasks. - Reminders: get a notification at the time you choose so a note doesn't get forgotten. - Home Screen widgets: put a sticky note or checklist right on your iPhone Home Screen and read it without opening the app. - Color-coded notes: organize notes by color, for example work, home, shopping or ideas. - Notes with pictures: attach a photo to a note, such as a receipt, a whiteboard or a recipe. - Voice notes (voice to text): speak your note instead of typing it. - iCloud sync: your notes stay backed up and available on your other Apple devices. - App lock: lock the app to keep private notes away from anyone who picks up your phone. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a note, checklist or reminder by typing or speaking. 2. Pick a color and add a picture if you like. 3. Add it as a widget to your Home Screen, or set a reminder. WHO IT'S FOR - Anyone who wants sticky notes on the iPhone Home Screen instead of paper notes on the fridge or monitor. - People looking for a simple to-do list or checklist app without a complicated setup. - Students who keep track of assignments, exams and study notes. - Busy parents managing grocery lists, school dates and household chores. - Anyone who likes color-coded notes for planning, brainstorming and daily organization. ------------ Pro Pack Subscription Conditions: - Your subscription lasts 1 month, 6 months, or 1 year, depending on the subscription level chosen at the time of purchase. - You will be charged $2.99 for 1 month (includes free trial for 7 days), $11.99 for 6 months (includes free trial for 7 days), $19.99 for 1 year (includes free trial for 7 days), depending on the subscription level chosen at the time of purchase. - Payment will be charged to your iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase. - Your subscription automatically renews unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription. - Your account will be charged for a renewed subscription within 24 hours prior to the end of current subscription.
