Sticky Notes HD

Like lots of people, I have tried a lot of note and list making apps, and discarded them all, one by one. I decided to try this one based on many positive reviews, and I'm so glad I did! I like it very much... it is easy to use, with a short learning curve and some nice features. I would like to be able to put a check next to completed tasks, but that is not essential. I prefer to use it as one longer list, rather than a number of notes... I am presently using it for a To Do list, as I have a lot of those just now, and being able to access it easily on my iPhone and iPad is great! I wish it came in a Windows version too. The developer is said to be a college student. If this is true, I predict a very bright future for him in the field of app development, and probably much more! ... I do recommend this app!

I've tried a lot of sticky notes types of apps, and Sticky Notes HD is so far the best for me. The interface is pretty intuitive. The only minor hitch for me is that a pencil icon is used to indicate "edit the note", rather than "draw on the note or use your Apple Pencil or stylus to add things to the note." Other than that it's a fine app. I'm still exploring it and am finding room for future updates. For example, it would be nice to be able to reorder notes by dragging them. Also, I'd like the option to use these as real sticky notes: being able to position notes around the screen rather than viewing as a list of prioritized notes. But these are minor things—the app is great for just taking notes...

Apple needs to fly Mr. Tsopanakis to Cupertino and woo him with royalty payments or a briefcase full of stock options. Then, Sticky Notes HD needs to be standard in every iOS release. Sticky Notes HD is the definition of serenity. Mr. Tsopanakis is the definition of restraint. Sticky Notes HD hasn't updated in a while BECAUSE IT DID NOT NEED TO. (Read that sentence again and then think of the real world equivalent of this app.) How many of us have deleted a once-awesome app because some new hipster manager took over the app, stuck a pencil in his man-bun, then decided to improve it by "disrupting the (insert-latest-buzzword-here)" — turning it into bloatware? If you want to write a novel with video clips, multiple alarms, and a fertility timer that syncs to NASA, this ain't the app. Sticky Notes HD is perfect for easily accessible organization. It's easy to use and serves its purpose very, VERY well—quick notes, easy to access. I use the access from the control panel EVERY SINGLE DAY. I love you, Mr. T. . . . don't you go changin'.

I really like the potential this app has. I needed to be able to categorize “to dos” but it would be nice to have direct access to add to a list from the screen where the “pencil” is, to just tap within the note and be able to type. But instead you have to click the pencil, which moves you to the next screen where you click on the note and then changes again to the white background before you can enter text. So it takes 3 clicks to basically save what you’ve written. That’s a bit much. I intend to stick with this app a little longer but it would be nice to enter text from the first screen after the appropriate note is selected for higher efficiency as other sticky apps allow.

I have used this app for several years and am ashamed to say I’ve never left a review. I find many “quick note” Apps rather clunky to use. This App does exactly what a quick note App should do - be easy to use to put a note in my phone. I used to carry a small pad of paper with me, then realized that an App like this could do a better, cleaner job of keeping me organized. I use a different App for detailed information I need to hold onto and reorganize. This App is the best I’ve found for simply jotting down a short note. Just like putting sticky notes on your computer screen 😉
