StickyTabs

Sticky notes as coloured tabs on the edge of your screen.

Click the strip and they slide out. Hover one to read it; click it to type straight in, without leaving whatever you were doing. Every sticky is a real note in your own Apple Notes — so they are already on your iPhone and iPad, already backed up, and still there on a new Mac. No account, and no server of ours in between.

Coming to the Mac App Store See how it works

• Kept in Apple Notes

  Each sticky is one note in a StickyTabs folder. Read and edit them in Notes on any device, or here.

• Any edge, any screen

  Right, left, top or bottom. One display or all of them — drag the strip where you want it.

• Pictures, pasted in

  Paste a screenshot straight into a sticky and drag its corner to resize. It travels with the note.

• Colours that travel

  Fourteen colours or any custom one, and the colour shows in Notes on your phone too.

• Out of the way

  Hide a sticky from the strip without deleting it, and it stays hidden on your other Macs.

• Nothing leaves your Mac

  No account, no analytics, no network connections at all. The privacy policy is short.

Requires macOS 13 or later, on Apple silicon or Intel.
