Not only that, but it also offers the capability to sync notes to other computers, Android phones, and iPhone.

1. Share Sticky Notes Between Windows 10 Computers

However, remember that the changes you make on any computer will reflect on the second computer too, as the notes are continuously syncing.

Tap on the three-dot icon present at the top of any note and select Notes list from the menu.
Step 3: On the Sticky Notes list screen, tap on the settings gear icon at the top.
Step 4: On the next screen, click on Sign in and log in with your Microsoft account.
