Sticky notes that
follow your apps.
GeniusNotes gives every program on Windows 10 and 11 its own note. Create one for Excel while you're in Excel: it's back when you return and out of your way everywhere else. Pay once. No account. No cloud.
Always find your notes where and when you need them.
Have you ever felt that storing unrelated notes in one basic app hinders you more than it helps? Do you lose your train of thought before you even find the note you wanted to retrieve?
GeniusNotes is a lightweight, unobtrusive productivity app that automatically displays and hides floating sticky notes based on your currently active program. It stays out of your way, barely sips resources, and feels like an integrated part of your operating system.
📊 Context-Aware Memory
Just opened Excel and wondering which row you were supposed to double-check? Your Excel note automatically spawns right where you left it.
🌐 Seamless Transitions
Quick Alt-Tab to the browser to look something up? The browser note instantly replaces the Excel one. Want a note to stay put? Just pin it to keep it afloat across all apps.
Never Steals Focus
Drag, resize, and dock notes freely. They stay visible and interactive without ever interrupting your workflow.

Frequently asked questions
- Is GeniusNotes a sticky notes app?
- Yes, with a quality-of-life twist. Instead of one pile of "dumb" notes, it gives every app and program you use its own sticky note, so the right note is on screen exactly when you need it.
- Can a note stay on top of one specific program?
- Yes, that is the whole point. A note belongs to the program you created it in and appears only while that program is active. Pin it if you want it visible everywhere.
- Does it work with two monitors?
- Yes. Drag a note through the top half of the shared screen edge to move it to the other monitor, or into the bottom half to dock it there as a small tab.
- Do I need an account or the cloud?
- No. GeniusNotes is fully local and private: no account, no cloud sync, no subscription. Your notes never leave your PC.
- What does premium cost?
- Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. The Microsoft Store shows your exact local price before you buy, and the free version never expires.
- Does it run on Windows 10?
- Yes. Windows 10 and Windows 11 get exactly the same features.
