What you’ll learn

When you need an account.
How Public and private content differ.
What you can edit, delete and share.
How ownership, search, export, invitations and plans work.

Do I need an account?

You need an account to create content, manage a private board, accept an invitation or give a Public sticky note a heart. To accept an invitation, sign in or create an account with the invited email address.

You do not need an account to open a private board through an active View link. A Post link also lets you read the board without an account, but you must sign in before you can contribute.

What is the difference between a Draft, a Public sticky note and a private-board sticky note?

A Draft is not public. A Public sticky note or Instant Photo appears on the worldwide wall. A sticky note on a private board is visible to its Owner and current Participants, anyone using an active View or Post link, and authorised platform staff when genuinely necessary.

Public and private-board sticky notes are separate. You cannot move or copy one directly into the other context.

Can people comment on a Public sticky note?

No. The only public response is a heart from someone who is signed in. Comments, private-board hearts and dot voting are available on private boards.

Can I edit or delete my sticky note?

Yes. You can edit your own sticky notes. StickyNotes.club keeps the current accepted version and does not provide an edit history.

After confirmation, deletion is permanent. It also deletes the sticky note’s comments, hearts and dot votes.

Does a Public sticky note expire?

No. It stays Public until you return it to Draft, delete it or authorised moderation removes it.

Returning it to Draft cannot recall external copies, search results, caches or earlier external AI use.

Yes, if you own the board and use Club Host, Club Facilitator or Chosen Few. A View link lets anyone with the link read the board without an account. A Post link also lets a signed-in StickyNotes.club user on any plan contribute.

A signed-in Post-link contributor can create and manage their own sticky notes, arrange notes, comment, use hearts and take part in dot voting. They do not become Participants and do not receive invitation, mention or board-management rights. You can revoke a link at any time. Use an email invitation when someone should join as a Participant; invitations expire after 14 days.

Can people join a workshop without an account?

Yes. An Owner on Club Facilitator can create a workshop link. Anyone with that link picks a nickname and can contribute right away. The link always has an expiry time and can be revoked at any moment.

Does everyone in my workshop need a paid plan?

No. Only the person running the session needs Club Facilitator. Everyone taking part does so for free, with or without an account.

Can I transfer board ownership?

No. Every board has one Owner, and ownership cannot be transferred. Deleting the Owner’s account permanently deletes every board that account owns.

Who owns what I create?

You keep ownership of content you create or share on a private board.

When you publish a sticky note or Instant Photo on the worldwide wall, you explicitly give up ownership of that Public content. It is not linked publicly to your name or profile. StickyNotes.club keeps a private internal connection while your account exists so you can edit, return it to Draft or delete it.

Can I search StickyNotes.club?

StickyNotes.club does not have text search. You can filter sticky notes on a private board by tag and filter Public sticky notes on the worldwide wall by country. Help Centre search searches only these guides, not product content.

Can I export a board?

No. StickyNotes.club does not provide bulk, board-level or structured export. You can use Save as image for one eligible sticky note, but not while a worldwide-wall sticky note is a Draft.

A personal-data access or portability request is a separate privacy process and does not create a reusable board export.

Can I block another user?

There is no general user-to-user blocking control. An Owner can remove a Participant’s access to a private board. Use Report for unsafe content or behaviour.

Is StickyNotes.club free?

Yes. Club Member is free and includes two Public publications per day, one active editable private board you own and full participation on boards you are invited to. See Choose and manage your plan for the full comparison.
