TackNote for Windows

Notes tacked to their context.

A sticky note that knows what it belongs to. It shows up with that window, tab, document or folder, and stays out of the way the rest of the time.

One shortcut

Press it, and the note sticks to the window in front of you.

CtrlAltN
Browser tabs

Switch tabs, and the notes switch with you.

Every page keeps its own note in Edge, Chrome, Brave or Firefox. Leave the tab and its note steps aside. Come back and it is waiting.

Stacks and lists

Stack another note, then tick it off.

Any note can become a checklist with a live count of what is done.

CtrlAltShiftN
Excel and Word

Every workbook and document keeps its own notes.

A note on Q4 budget.xlsx shows only there. Open Client brief.docx and its own note takes over.

File Explorer

Open the folder, and its notes are already there.

Close the window and the note still knows the way: its link reopens the folder, document or app it belongs to.

Virtual desktops

A note for each desktop, still there after a restart.

Keep a desktop note on every desktop, or give it to one desktop and it returns there after a reboot.

CtrlAltF
Capture text

Drag a box around any text on screen, and it lands in the note.

Tracking numbers, error codes, a line from a screenshot. It is read right here on your PC.

Colours

Change a note's colour in one click.

Click to cycle colours. Right-click for the full palette, a colour picker and opacity.

Themes

Fourteen themes, one setting.

Open Settings from the tray and give every note a new look: Kraft, Ruled Notebook, Glass, Comic and more.

On the note

Reminders and voice memos, right on the note.

Reminders repeat every day, weekday, week or month and arrive as a Windows notification. Tap the mic to leave yourself a memo.

Private notes

Lock a note behind Windows Hello.

It blanks out until you unlock it with your face, fingerprint, PIN or Windows password.

TackBoard

Every note, from every app, on one board.

Search every word of every note, group by app or project, and jump straight back to the work it belongs to.
