Most sticky note apps treat attachments as an afterthought — a paperclip icon that dumps your file into a generic list with no context. You paste a screenshot, a product photo, or a short video clip and it immediately disappears into a drawer. That is not storing media with your note. That is just a file manager wearing a sticky note costume.
A genuinely useful sticky note app that holds photos and videos keeps the media inside the note, where it belongs — visible at a glance, attached to the context that makes it meaningful. This guide explains what actually separates good media-capable sticky note apps from the rest, and then shows you exactly why TaskLoco Premium is the pick worth making.
What to Look for in a Sticky Note App That Holds Photos and Videos
Before any specific product enters the picture, it helps to understand what this category actually solves — and where most apps quietly fall short. A sticky note app that holds media is not just a note app with a file upload button. It is a tool that keeps visual information in context, attached to the thought or task that made it relevant in the first place.
There are three criteria that genuinely matter when choosing one:
- In-note media display, not just attachment storage. The photo or video should be visible inside the note itself — not hidden behind a link or buried in a sidebar. If you have to click away from the note to see the image, the app has not really solved the problem.
- Meaningful storage capacity. Photos are large. Short video clips are larger. An app that caps you at a few megabytes per note or a few hundred megabytes total will fill up fast. Look for apps that offer at least several gigabytes of storage and let you expand if needed.
- Cross-device access without friction. The whole point of a sticky note is that it is always there when you need it. If your photo-embedded notes only live on one device, or if syncing requires manual steps, the media attachment becomes a liability rather than an asset.
How TaskLoco Handles Photos and Videos Inside Notes
TaskLoco Premium was built around the idea that a note is not just text — it is a container for everything related to a thought. That means photos and videos live inside the note, visible when you open it, not tucked away in an attachments panel you have to go hunting for.
With the Premium plan, each person gets 10GB of file storage. That covers a serious volume of product screenshots, reference photos, short video walkthroughs, and scanned documents. And if 10GB is not enough, storage is expandable through add-on tiers: 10GB, 50GB, 200GB, and 1TB — stackable up to 100x. So whether you are a solo creative with a growing visual library or a team where every member is actively attaching media, the storage scales with you.
The Chrome extension makes this even faster on desktop. One click captures the current webpage — including images from it — and drops it straight into a new note. No copy-paste, no tab-switching. The captured content arrives with full context intact and immediately becomes a media-rich sticky note on your wall.
On mobile, TaskLoco Lite (the native iPhone and Android app available in the App Stores) stores up to 20 notes directly on your device — completely anonymous, no sign-in required. It is a clean, private place to jot things down fast. However, file attachments, reminders, team sharing, and sync are Premium-only features accessed through the web app. TaskLoco Premium runs beautifully in your phone's browser and syncs instantly across every device you use.
Attachments, Reminders, and the Note That Actually Follows You
Storing media in a note is only half the job. The other half is making sure that note finds you at the right moment. TaskLoco Premium includes reminders that are delivered as push notifications directly to your phone and computer. When the reminder fires, it deep-links back to the original note — so you land exactly on the photo, the video clip, or the task you attached them to. Not on a home screen. Not on a generic list. The note itself.
Optional email notifications are available at no extra cost. Optional SMS notifications are available as an add-on with a monthly quota included. But the core experience is push — instant, direct, and tied to the note that matters.
This combination — media stored in context plus a reminder that returns you to that exact context — is what separates TaskLoco from apps that are either good at attachments or good at reminders but not both. The note with the reference photo for your client meeting reminds you an hour before the meeting. You tap the notification. You are looking at the photo. That is the whole workflow, and it requires zero extra steps.
Team sharing works the same way. When you share a note with a teammate, they receive it just like an email — they can clone it and make it their own, with all attachments intact. No permissions to configure, no access levels to manage. The note travels as a complete object, media included.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you attach photos and videos to sticky notes in TaskLoco?
Yes — with TaskLoco Premium, you can attach photos, videos, and any other file type directly to a sticky note. Media is stored inside the note, not in a separate file list. Each Premium subscriber gets 10GB of storage, expandable up to 1TB and beyond through add-on tiers.
How much storage do I get for photos and videos in TaskLoco?
Every TaskLoco Premium subscription includes 10GB of file storage per person. If you need more, storage add-on tiers are available: 10GB, 50GB, 200GB, and 1TB — and they are stackable up to 100x. Storage scales with your actual usage rather than forcing you onto an oversized plan from day one.
Does TaskLoco have a free version that supports photo attachments?
File attachments — including photos and videos — are a Premium-only feature. The two free tiers, TaskLoco Lite (native iPhone and Android app, 20 notes, no sign-in) and TaskLoco Lite Plus+ (web app and Chrome extension, 30 notes, synced), do not include file attachments. You can try all Premium features including attachments during the 7-day free trial.
How do reminders work when a note has photos or videos attached?
TaskLoco Premium reminders are delivered as push notifications to your phone and computer. When the notification fires, it deep-links directly back to the original note — so you land on the exact note with your attached photo or video, not just the app's home screen. Optional email notifications and optional SMS add-on notifications are also available.
Can I share a sticky note that has photos or videos with my team?
Yes. TaskLoco Premium team sharing works like sending an email — your teammate receives the note complete with all its attachments. They can clone it and make it their own. There are no permission levels to configure and no access controls to manage. The note travels as a complete object, media included. Each team member needs their own Premium subscription.
What is the pricing for TaskLoco Premium?
$9.99/month per person (currently $4.99/month per person for first 500 charter members with code CHARTER50)
Is there a native mobile app for TaskLoco Premium with photo support?
The only native iPhone and Android app in the App Stores is TaskLoco Lite, which is anonymous, stores up to 20 notes on your device, and does not support file attachments, reminders, or team sharing. TaskLoco Premium — which includes photo and video attachments, 10GB storage, reminders, and team sharing — is accessed through your phone's browser as a web app. It works on any mobile browser without needing an App Store download.
