How to Use Sticky Notes on iOS, Android, and Mac – Guide
Microsoft has made it easier for Windows 10 users to stay organized with the release of Sticky Notes 3.0, which now supports cloud sync. This allows users to access their notes and to-do lists across multiple Windows 10 devices, making it simpler than ever to stay on top of tasks.
Many Windows 10 PC users own multiple devices, including Macs, iPhones, iPads and Android devices. Unfortunately, they have been unable to access their Sticky Notes data from these other devices - until now. Microsoft has finally made it possible for users to sync their Sticky Notes across all of their devices, allowing them to easily access important notes and to-do lists no matter which device they’re using.
No matter what device you use, you can now access Sticky Notes. The app allows users to create, edit and delete notes on Macs, iPhones, Androids and iPads.
Use sticky notes on Mac
From Outlook App
Apple’s Stickies app provides a simple, efficient way to take notes on macOS. However, it lacks synchronization and is only available on Macs, leaving users without access to their notes on other platforms. Enter sticky notes: an alternative that offers cross-platform compatibility and more features.
Microsoft’s Outlook app now allows Mac users to access Sticky Notes, with just a few simple steps.
To get Outlook Email on your Mac, head to the Mac App Store and download the app.
Sign in to Outlook Mail using your Microsoft account details.
Once logged in, users should navigate to the bottom menu bar.
View your email, contacts, calendar, tasks and notes in Step 4.
Tap the notes icon to open the sticky notes menu in the app.
To create a new note, go to File> New Note or use the keyboard shortcut ‘Command + N’. Give it a title and content, then press ‘Command + S’ to save. Notes can be viewed and organized by date.
Use Outlook Web
Microsoft has significantly upgraded Outlook on the web, allowing users to access a range of services – including Mail, Calendar, Tasks, Contacts and Skype – in one convenient location.
You can now access Sticky Notes on Chrome OS and Linux, thanks to a reliable trick. To do so, simply follow the steps outlined below for Outlook web.

To make the launcher your default on Android, go to device settings.
