Encrypted Floating Notes

Only for Mac

$1.99

Mac

Your private notes, always on top. AES-256 encrypted, Touch ID protected, beautifully simple. Secure Sticky Notes is a floating yellow post-it for your Mac desktop. It looks and feels like a real sticky note pinned to your screen — but everything you type is encrypted on disk with AES-256-GCM, locked behind Touch ID or your password. Perfect for the small secrets that don't deserve a full password manager: API keys, recovery codes, server credentials, gate PINs, Wi-Fi passwords, the random scraps you keep in a TextEdit file today. ALWAYS ON TOP A yellow sticky note that floats above all your windows. One click brings it forward, one click locks it back away. STRONG ENCRYPTION Notes are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, the same authenticated cipher used by HTTPS and Signal. The encryption key is derived from your password (PBKDF2) and never leaves your Mac. TOUCH ID UNLOCK Optional Touch ID unlock for the fastest possible access. The encryption key is stored in the Secure Enclave-backed keychain and only released after a successful biometric prompt. LOCK & HIDE One click locks your notes and hides the window. The app stays in your menu bar; click the icon to bring everything back, or right-click for the full menu. UP TO 5 TABS Organise different categories of secrets across up to 5 tabs in one window. Each tab is its own encrypted note with its own font, size and colour. Double-click a tab to rename it. PAPER-FOLDER TABS Tabs are designed to look like real paper folder tabs — the active tab is the same yellow as the note body and merges into it; inactive tabs sit slightly behind with a soft shadow. ACCIDENTAL-DELETE PROTECTION Closing a tab always asks for confirmation, so you never lose a note by clicking the wrong X. CUSTOMISE YOUR NOTES Choose any system font, adjust the text size, pick any text colour. Make each note feel different at a glance. PRIVATE ICLOUD SYNC Optionally sync your encrypted notes across your Macs through your own private iCloud container. The notes stay end-to-end encrypted with your password — Apple delivers the bytes but cannot read them. MULTILINGUAL Full right-to-left support for Arabic and Hebrew, plus CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean). Direction is auto-detected per paragraph as you type. MENU BAR APP Lives quietly in your menu bar — no Dock icon clutter. Left-click to toggle the note. Right-click (or Control-click) to access Open / Lock, Change Password, Start at Login, About and Quit. START AT LOGIN (OPT-IN) On first launch, Secure Sticky Notes asks once whether you want it to start automatically when you log in. Nothing is registered without your explicit consent. You can toggle this any time from the menu. PRIVACY FIRST • No tracking. No analytics. No accounts. • No data collected, ever. • Works entirely offline — iCloud sync is optional and encrypted. CHANGE PASSWORD ANYTIME Update your master password from the menu bar — notes are instantly re-encrypted with the new key. Secure Sticky Notes is a one-time purchase. No subscriptions, no hidden fees.

Version 1.1 — smart window sizing • New: when you switch tabs, the window automatically grows so the entire note fits — no more text getting cut off at the bottom. • New: the window is also clamped to keep all your tabs visible. You can no longer accidentally drag it so narrow that tabs disappear. • Right-click the menu-bar icon to open the menu; left-click to toggle the window. • Closing a tab now asks for confirmation so you don't lose a note by accident. • Various polish: cleaner tabs, frameless window buttons, better dark-mode rendering.
