Stickies, everywhere you areComing soon
Sticko feels like the Stickies you already know — little colored notes floating on your desktop. The difference is that they follow you to your other Macs and your iPhone through iCloud Drive. No account, no sign-in, and completely free.
Sticko lives in your menu bar, not your Dock. Each note is its own little window — drag it anywhere on your desktop, resize it from its edges, and change it from its title bar.
A pinned note stays above every other window — and on every Space, even over full-screen apps.
Fade a note down to 30% so it can sit over your work without hiding it.
Quit and relaunch, and the notes you had open reopen in the same places.
Use bold, italics and bigger or smaller text. Paste a screenshot with ⌘V or drag an image in — then grab the handle at its corner to resize it right in the note.
Switch a note into checklist mode for to-dos you can tick off. Your items are kept even if you switch back.
Large images are scaled down automatically (up to 2048 px) so notes stay quick to sync.
Press ⌘⇧L to see every note in a grid. Search their contents, sort them, and filter by tags you add to each note.
From there you can export to Markdown or print — handy when a note grows into something bigger.
Too many notes scattered around? ⌘⇧A brings them all to the front at once.
Sticko keeps each note as a small file in iCloud Drive. Every Mac and iPhone signed in to the same Apple Account sees the same notes — there's no Sticko account to create and nothing to sign in to.
If you edit on two devices, Sticko merges them: the latest text wins, and a note's position and size are tracked separately, so moving a window on one Mac never undoes typing done on another.
When a Mac wakes up after days offline, Sticko waits for iCloud to finish catching up before uploading anything — so old copies never overwrite newer notes.
Remove a note on one device and it disappears everywhere, without coming back from a device that hadn't heard the news yet.
Install Sticko on your iPhone or iPad with the same Apple Account and your notes simply appear. Read them, edit them, tick off checklists — the changes land back on your Mac.
Add the Sticko widget from your Home Screen's edit mode and pick a note to keep in view. Tap it to jump straight into that note.
Choose the color and font size every new note starts with, and whether pictures are allowed in notes.
Max notes keeps your desktop from turning into a wall of paper — 10 by default, adjustable from 1 to 100.
Open DB folder shows the note files in Finder; Delete all data wipes everything when you want a fresh start.

Open Settings.
On each device: System Settings (Mac) or Settings (iPhone) → your name → iCloud → iCloud Drive. Use the same Apple Account everywhere.
Click the Sticko icon at the top of your screen and choose New Note, or just press ⌘N.
There's no save button. Your other Macs and your iPhone pick up changes within moments; the very first sync after installing can take a minute.
