About Sticky Pins
Sticky Pins lets you create your own notifications. Using Sticky Pins you can easily create quick instant notes, reminders and tasks, and pin them to the notification drawer. The title, content, and priority of pins can be customized. No need to fill up your home screen with ToDo list and notes widgets, or open app to view your important tasks or notes, instead just add a notification using Sticky Pins and stay in quick access to them.
Features

You can give Default, Min, Low and High priority to your pins. Pins will be positioned on your notification drawer based on their priority. High priority will put your pin on top of all other notifications, Low priority will put it below all other notifications, and Min will place it below a small divider, completely at the bottom of your notification drawer. If you have other High priority notifications, and you add another pin with High priority, Android will choose its position.

Edit your created pins by clicking on them from notification drawer and updating details in edit pin dialog.

This was great on Android Marshmallow and I loved using it as a to-do list. But the new Android version changed notifications a lot and now the pins are all grouped/collapsed together under one heading, and that heading isn't persistent even if the stickies inside are, so the whole group can be swiped away. (It was more useful when they weren't grouped, so I could be mildly annoyed at how many items were building up and feel motivated to clear them.)

Fantastic app! I loved it.. Simple and gets the job done. BTW can you please help with MIUI? I can't set priority pins. The problem is with MIUI itself. Thank you!

I started using this app just as an experiment and I have got hooked to it due to its simplicity and intuitiveness. Huge shoutout to the developer(s)! Kudos! - Mayank, developer team, iReff App

A very quick and easy way to make a note to self. I discovered that pinning notifications was in many ways a better solution for to-do lists for me. Minor improvements could include: allow creation of new note from any other to avoid need for separate 'New' item in list and extra icon in status bar; don't use same position for Cancel and Delete on UI when composing/reading. Major development could add an app UI to make it more like a notes app or, in addition to pinning, allow reminders for items.

Does what it says, elegantly. My only wish at the moment is to be able to use the app's pin icon itself as the pinned notification icon. I think it would be a nice alternative to the star.

Great idea and almost ideal except when phone is rebooted even permanent pins get removed, until after manually restarting the app

Simple and functional. Out of the many organisational apps I've tried this one looks the most promising. I'd love a donate feature if the dev was willing to implement it!

Needed something that would always be in my notifications bar as opposed to in an app.

Was looking for something like this a month ago. Didn't find any and was planning on making one myself. But this is awesome and now I don't have to. Few suggestions to developer: 1) switch on auto complete for keyboards (doesn't seem to be working for default Google keyboard in Title text field). 2) remember last setting used (e.g. if I selected 'persistent' and 'low priority' for my last note, then select those by default the next time I make a note) 3) allow New Pin notification to be min priority too.

Helped a lot with its reminder feature. And I recommend all to try this at least for once

The smartest thing about this app is that it places notifications where you look all the time. Simple interface and feature set yet extremely useful. The only thing is that when the keyboard I use is in front of the newly created pin, I have to tap the cog wheel on the top right-hand corner to make the keyboard go away. Also it would be great if we were able to add canned responses to the title and apply them like the priority drop down list but be able to modify them. Thanks for an ingenious app as is.
