This is one of the most convenient ways to make sure that things you’ve added like grocery lists or to-do lists are accessible when you’re on the go.

You can either edit your existing sticky notes or tap the plus icon at the lower right to create a new one.Īnything you edit, add, or delete here will automatically be synced to the sticky notes that you’ve placed on your computer desktop back home or at work. This opens your Sticky Notes list on your mobile device. At the top of the Settings window, if you aren’t already signed in, you should see a Sign in button here.

To do this, open the Notes List we mentioned above, and select the gear icon to open Settings. To make sure you can access your Sticky Notes on all devices, make sure you’re logged into your Microsoft account from the Sticky Notes application. While sticky notes are very useful on one device, they’re even more useful if you can access the same notes from all devices you use. Now that you have a good understanding of how Sticky Notes on Windows 10 works and how to use it, let’s look at a couple of ways to make them even more useful.

Color: Choose the color scheme to use to match your overall Windows theme.

Confirm before deleting: Enables a pop-up confirmation when you delete a Sticky Note so that you don’t accidentally delete one.

Enable insights: Enable the feature letting Cortana scan your notes for information, or add new notes for you.
