Simple Sticky Note Widget Plus

About this app

A lightweight, no-nonsense sticky note widget! Resizable, scrollable, and enabled for both your home screen and (on devices running Jelly Bean and KitKat) lock screen. No permissions required! The Plus version allows you to choose background color, background transparency, font size, and share note text to other apps.

There is a hidden sticky note history feature that allows users to view their sticky note edits from the past 24 hours (in case of accidental deletion, etc). To access the feature:
1) Add a sticky note widget to your home screen.
2) Open the sticky note widget editor by tapping on the widget.
3) Double-tap the editor screen 5 times in quick succession.
4) Swipe left and right on the history screen to see the available notes

Received "Excellent" rating from CNET Editors.

Ratings and reviews

Have used the free version of this widget for at least 10 years. Loved it. Just found out that this one let's you customize font size and have some color options. Definitely worth the price to be able to fit my device theme better. For both versions of the widget I have had 0 problems over multiple years and devices. I can power off my phone and it will still be there when powered back on. I love that no permissions are needed so everything is private and secure. Big thanks to the developer!!!

Absolutely fantastic app. No creepy permissions that want your pictures and contacts etc. lists. Sticky note looks like you stuck a sticky note on your home screen, you do not have to go into an app to see your note, also size adjustable. And it works fantastic. I bought the full version, that gives you extra note background colors.

Been using the free version for years. Font size and color change is well worth the 99¢ upgrade. I would like it if there were a few more font options like underline, bold, strikethough, and text/highlight color but I also appreciate the simplicity this app is going for and those few missing options are not a deal breaker. 10/10 app.
