Manage updates with the Download AppCNET Editors' review
Decades from now, it's possible no one will remember that the sticky note programs so common on computer desktops originated with actual sticky pieces of paper. Like other similar software, this download mimics the offline memory-jogging standby, simulating sticky notes that can be placed on the desktop containing short messages or reminders. We like the ability to set note priorities, so the most important reminders can always be on top. Users also can make the notes semitransparent and change their color at will. However, the program lacks several important features that rivals often provide. Notes don't have an associated alarm function that would help remind absent-minded users of their presence. The software allows only 10 notes to be kept at once, which can quickly become restrictive. Overall, the download scores points with basic functionality and a price tag of zero, but users who want a more powerful reminder system should look elsewhere.Publisher's Description

"Painless and perfect for every day use"
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
They are sticky notes its supposed to be a no-brainer to run the program, that is what this is, simple and just works!
Cons
nothing this is perfect.
Summary
No addware, double click to write notes, saves notes, and works great on vista.
-
"Easy to use, works great."
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
Ease of use. Its sticky notes like I want them. I can move them and size them the way I want. I like the transparency, it helps me not forget.
Cons
In transparency mode the notes sometimes disappear. The short cuts ctr-N and ctr-S are the same ones I use on Office, so I had to disable those.

"Exactly what I was looking for!"
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
I've tried about 10 different free sticky note programs and none of them had the ease of use this one had. Also, I was trying hard to search for one that would allow me to minimize the note by double-clicking the title bar. This gives me a little better look for my desktop and a lot less clutter. There are a lot of clumsy sticky note programs out there and they may offer more features but not the ones I use.
Cons
Nothing yet.

"This didnt work for me and I cannot delete it - beware!"
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
Umm.....?
Cons
First of all, I could not install this program. So I then tried to delete this program, which did not work. I then tried uninstaller software to delete it, which did not work either. I tried restoring my computer to another time, so that it wasn't there in the first place. Again this did not work.
I guess what i'm trying to say is - Stay away from this!

"It's free, it's good and easy to use and print."
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
I like being able to save a list and print it, make reminders for myself and leave messages for family---and not have a convoluted program to do it. It has just what I need and no more that I will never use that just takes up space on my hard drive.
-
"Cute & Easy!"
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
It's simple to use and customize..doesn't take up too much space.
-
"Lots of features..."
Version: Sticky Notes Free 4
Pros
Compared to other similar products this programm allows you to title your notes the way you want them, if you do not want to title them yourself the programm automatically uses a time / date stamp as a title... nice
Cons
Well... you have to get used to it first!
