Microsoft introduced some major improvements to Sticky Notes when the company first launched Sticky Notes 3.0. The update introduced a new dark theme for notes, as well as the ability to sync your notes across devices.
The dark theme for notes was only applied to the note itself, though — meaning that the app itself still had the same, bright light theme. Microsoft is now changing that with Sticky Notes 3.1, introducing a full dark mode for the entire app. With the new dark mode, all of your notes will feature the dark mode, and the app itself will also feature the same dark mode.

Microsoft said on Twitter that Sticky Notes 3.0 also improves syncing, making it “even faster.” The update should also make syncing to your phone via OneNote a lot faster:
👋🏽 #WindowsInsiders, Sticky Notes 3.1 is heading to Skip Ahead 🎉
* We tested the waters with Charcoal Note and you all seemed keen to go even darker. Introducing full-on Dark Mode!
* Sync is even faster now, including to your phone via iOS and Android #OneNote, rolling out now! pic.twitter.com/66BxOnxwh4— Sticky Notes (@stickynotes) October 24, 2018
This is also the way changelogs should be done for every other Microsoft app on Windows 10, by the way.
Sticky Notes 3.1 is currently available for Windows Insiders in Skip Ahead, and the update will likely head to more users over time. We will let you know once that happens.
