Sticky Notes slowly becomes one top Microsoft app, as the company is trying to make it faster and more convenient for everyone to use it.

And after launching Sticky Notes in Microsoft Launcher on Android and in OneNote, the software giant is now bringing Sticky Notes to Outlook for the web.

Microsoft originally announced Sticky Notes in Outlook for the web earlier this month, explaining that all Office users should get it sometimes in January.

“Create, edit, and view your Sticky Notes directly in @Outlook for the web! Sticky Notes in Outlook for the web makes it easier than ever to manage your notes with your emails. Rolling out next month to all Office users!” the Microsoft OneNote team announced.

But as revealed on reddit, the first users are already getting Sticky Notes in the Outlook.com accounts, with a new “Notes” folder placed in the sidebar.

Sticky Notes for Mac

Creating a new Sticky Note in Outlook.com is rather easy as Microsoft has also added a “New Note” button in the top left corner. Users can choose the color and pick from essential format settings, such as bold, italic, underline, and insert photos.

Of course, Sticky Notes in Outlook for the web also comes with synchronization support, so all the notes that you create in your account are automatically synced with Sticky Notes on other devices and the other way around. The only thing that is required is being logged in with the same Microsoft account on the devices where you want the notes to be synced.

In related news, Microsoft has also explained that it has nothing to share on Sticky Notes coming to Mac for the time being, and invited users to submit feedback on such an idea in this UserVoice discussion thread here.
