Google Keep 3.2.354.00
Sleek design with plenty of features at hand
The app comes in a really nice design, all instructions and tips are arranged into colorful notes on the home screen. A side menu gives you access to all the neat features inside the app and you can also manage multiple accounts there and write different notes on each one of them.
There are some customization options inside the app, you can have it display notes in a single-column view or a grid and you'll simply need to scroll down to view them and tap to edit and manage them.
Create notes easily
The app makes it easy to create notes, you can add a title, the text body and have Google Keep remind you of the note in a certain day and at a specific time. You can also share the app with friends or add a color to the note to make it stand out from others.
Snap pictures or import one from the gallery to attach to notes and you can also enable checkboxes and turn your note into a list. If you're busy, you can use voice control to have the app type your note or use the camera to snap pictures and turn them into individual notes.
The search bar lets you find notes easily, simply by typing in key words. The app lets you organize your notes by adding labels to them. In addition, you can add recurring reminders to never miss regular to-dos.
Use home screen widgets
Other than creating notes, the app also lets you view them in the home screen widget. However, it doesn't display them entirely, only letting you scroll through and open the app if you need to view them entirely.
You can also make reminders for your grocery list, so that the app pull it out when you're at the store. Other than that, you may archive notes that you no longer need or delete them entirely.
The app lets you manage batches of notes but it doesn't let you place them into categories. It also doesn't let you group notes into folders and the app isn't integrated with Gmail or Inbox, which is quite inconvenient. Another feature that would be nice to have is the option to pin a single note on the home screen.
