Add Optional Description Text for Sticky Notes

I’d love to see an option to add an extended description to sticky notes in Miro — similar to how a Notion record can hold more details behind a simple card or line of text.

 

👉 Use case:

When I run workshops or brainstorming sessions, a single sticky note often represents an idea that needs more context, background, or subpoints. Right now, I have to either:

 

  • create additional sticky notes to hold that information, cluttering the board, or

  • put the text in a separate text box or comment, which can break the flow.

 

💡 Suggested solution:

 

  • Allow users to add an optional text description to any sticky note.

  • Show a subtle icon or marker on the sticky note to indicate it contains additional text.

  • The description could appear in a popup or sidebar when clicked, so it doesn’t overcrowd the sticky note itself.

 

Benefits:

 

  • Keep boards clear and organized without losing valuable details.

  • Make it easier to share the full context of ideas during workshops and reviews.

  • Enhance collaboration by keeping related info together in one place.

 

I believe this would make sticky notes much more powerful for both planning and documentation!

Thanks for considering it! 🙌
