KNotes, alternative Linux à Microsoft Sticky Notes

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

KNotes is a good replacement for Microsoft Sticky Notes for Linux users who want simple, always-on-top desktop notes with basic formatting and color coding. It handles the core tasks well: quick note creation, persistent storage, and minimal resource use. While it lacks native cloud sync with Microsoft accounts, its integration with KDE Connect allows cross-device sharing on Linux. It autostarts with the KDE session and stores data locally by default. Users not tied to Windows or Microsoft’s ecosystem will find it reliable and functional.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft Sticky Notes

KNotes cannot open Microsoft Sticky Notes (.snt) files directly. There is no known converter tool to migrate .snt files to KNotes format. Users must manually copy text from Sticky Notes on Windows before switching. Once in KNotes, notes are saved in plain text or KDE's internal note format, which are readable outside the app but not interchangeable with Microsoft's format.
