The sticky notes application is one of the most essential apps for any smartphone user. No matter what you do, at times you may feel the need to create sticky notes on your smartphone—while you're on the go. These apps are easy to use and help you in increasing your productivity. Different sticky note applications work in different ways. Some are in widgetized form with drag-n-drop support on the home screen while others provide note functionality from within the application's interface. Let's see some of the best and most useful sticky note apps for the Android platform. Some of them are available for iOS.
I prefer apps that allow easy pinning of notes on the home screen. But, in the end, it's just a matter of preference. If you don't like such type of clutter on the home screen, you can omit it altogether.
Some of these apps have their desktop equivalents too. If their premium version supports the use of both platforms, I'll strongly suggest going with it instead of picking just the mobile version.
