App Bugged Fully. This app worked perfectly for a long time but over the past 6 months none of my sticky notes were updating on my home screen widgets and the lists kept deleting when i updated them
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Horrible. I can’t change the font color and it is invisible against the background. Unusable
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Subscription trash DONT BUY. Trash app the requires a subscription to do the simplest of things like change fonts and add widgets to lock screen on iPhone.
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
I use it a lot but…it’s broken.. I’ve tried to get help on this issue by directly reaching out but haven’t heard anything back in months so, this is my last resort. I think overall that the app is better than one star and I’ll gladly update my review once they fix some of the issues. The biggest one is that when you make a note into a checklist, you can no longer open the note or edit it beyond checking things off. I have a note that I have now effectively lost because I can’t see the note beyond the preview. Another issue is that you sometimes lose info if you leave the app to do something like check text if you didn’t save the note because the app may refresh when you return. Lastly, a few small things that I wish would be updated. 1) No longer being forced to name notes. 2) being able to hide the keyboard so you can view a note in full screen. 3) bullet points!

Useless without paying. I couldn’t even pin a note to my lock screen…? I kept getting prompts to upgrade. There are better free apps

Difficult at best. This app is difficult to use. Despite having IOS and watching the video 10 times, I still could not get my note to populate on the lock screen but one time. The one time I did manage to do it; no text, only background. Love the gradient backgrounds tho. App deleted!

Doesn’t Save Your Notes Sometimes. Sometimes you’ll write something down in it that’s very important and the next time you look at the widget the thing you wrote is not there anymore. This has been incredibly detrimental to me enough times for me to leave this one star review. I could have just used any other notes app and been fine but I chose this one and got screwed over. Don’t make my same mistake.

Bug. When I try to set a reminder, it gives an error message, “Failed to save reminder. Please try again.”

Bad update. Since updating today , each time I want to change the color, font or anything for that matter, I must click on restore purchase for it to work. Please fix ASAP. I loved this app before and paid for the full functionality long ago. Now it has become a pain to use.

Wipe out!!. Why does my paid for life subscription routinely wipe out all stickies I have open? I click with abandon but no avail on the restore link! Get in sync with the latest IOS!

Doesn’t work. I don’t normally review apps, but for something so highly rated this app doesn’t work. When you create a list and stick it on your home screen it freezes up every time and won’t load. And when it does work for a few minutes, if you have too many reminders, it will not expand and allow you to click it. Would not recommend.

Works sometimes. Notes in the widget stopped displaying. Pin to screen has never worked properly. Stays pinned for a day then disappears.
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Never stops promoting you to upgrade. Every time you open the widget you are prompted to upgrade to paid and then keeps popping up prompting you to upgrade with anything touched. I miss when free apps were free
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Broken… intentionally?. First, no dark mode support. Second, hangs on my 17 regularly. When it finally comes back to life, puts up an uncloseable subscription popup. Abandonware, it would seem.
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
They lock the full version 4 days earlier every time.. They lock the full version 4 days early every time, which means their subscription is one month minus 4 days, not a full month
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Hard to figure out. Very difficult to get the widget to post to your screen or the lock screen.
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Free version non-functional. That’s it. Unable to use in free version and no one should pay for this. Ever.
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
Stopped working. Ever since iPhone update it’s awful
★★★★★privacy and excessive permissions
no privacy. it retains everything so don’t trust it

Horrible now, Updated to Bloat. I don’t understand why so many sticky note apps complicate their mission and defeat the purpose of sticky notes. This ridiculous update now takes multiple clicks instead of one, no more taking a quick note. You know the thing this was designed for!

Unusable Recently. Unable to set sticky note widget on Lock Screen. When editing the note, I get a black screen and the app is unable to be used (even after closing the app). After reinstalling, I get the same behavior. iPhone 11, iOS 18.5. Never had an issue with the app in the past.

Lockscreen widget. I set the slot my note but it doesn’t work on the widget
★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
unusable. when i open it, its a dark screen. not fully black, its black with an orange hue and a little green. and nothing, i cant do anything, i cant use this app. i bought the premium version too. can’t use it at all. it’s a shame, it was a good app

Counterintuitive. It is difficult to change existing notes. It’s great to have a list displayed on the home screen but that list needs to be easily edit able. Also how do I make it display the beginning of the list rather than the end? Reordering tasks is difficult. Overall hard to use and not enough instructions. I want to see the first/top items displayed on the Home Screen. Tap a button to open the note/ list and then tap another a button to open the note in an editing screen. I want to be able to add, change, and remove tasks and then rearrange them in order the way I want. If this app can do all of these things, then please make the instructions easy to find. I’m signed up to pay for the app but can’t use it.

Not free. Not free

Locked screen. It does not put a note on my locked screen.
★★★★★search fails to find what is needed
App quit working. After the first sticky I pinned to my lock screen, I cannot pin another. I've looked everywhere to reach out to support, but cannot find how to connect with him.

No iPad Widget. I updated sticky widgets and my widgets disappeared from my iPad Home Screen. When I try to add a new widget, Sticky Widgets is no longer in the list!

App crashes. I’m so upset that the app keep crashing every time i open it. It has information I can’t retrieve. There’s no tech support to reach out to. This is terrible!!!!
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Was great. This was a great app that helped me stay organized but then I’d update a note and it wouldn’t save (the whole point was to help me remember things so obviously I forgot what I had updated the note with) and now it doesn’t work at all!
