Why fGadget Sticky

Notes That Stay In Sight

A sticky note is only useful while you can see it. fGadget Sticky keeps yours visible, readable, and stored in a format that will outlive the app.

Stays on Top

Pin any note above your browser and editor, or collapse it to its title bar when you need the room back.

Plain Markdown Files

Every note is a normal .md file in a folder you choose. No proprietary database, no export step, nothing that traps your notes inside this app.

Offline, No Account

Nothing to sign up for and nothing sent anywhere. Your notes never leave the disk you keep them on.

What You Can Do

Built Around How You Actually Work

Write Naturally or in Markdown

Type as you would in any notepad and use the toolbar for bold, italics, headings, bullet lists, and checklists. Switch to Markdown mode when you want tables, code blocks, quotes, and links. You never need to know Markdown, but the full syntax is always one shortcut away.

A Text Size for Every Note

Each note remembers its own text size and color. Keep reference material small and dense, and make the reminder you cannot afford to miss large and bold.

Opacity You Set per Note

Let a note blend into your wallpaper so it informs without demanding attention, or apply the transparency to the background only and keep the text perfectly crisp.

Instant Full-Text Search

The note manager searches across every note you have, open or closed, and brings the right one back in an instant.

Global Shortcuts and Tray

Create a note or show and hide every note at once with a global keyboard shortcut. The app starts with Windows and waits quietly in the system tray.

Runs Light in the Background

Autosave as you type, a clean Fluent design that follows the Windows light and dark themes, and careful engineering that keeps even dozens of open notes light on memory.

Your Data Stays Yours

Your Notes Are Plain Files

Most note apps hide your writing inside a database of their own. fGadget Sticky writes ordinary Markdown files into a folder you pick, and nothing else.

  • Every note is a Markdown (.md) file you can open in any editor
  • Edits made outside the app appear in the open note automatically
  • Images you drop onto a note are saved in an assets folder beside them and linked with relative paths
  • Deleted notes move to a trash folder you can open without the app
  • Put the folder in OneDrive or Dropbox and your notes follow you

A notes folder is an ordinary folder. Open it in Explorer and everything is right there: back it up, put it under version control, or grep it from a terminal, the same way you would with any other folder of text files.
