    I have some levels of ADHD and always struggle from completing tasks. After using several apps, I ended up with Google Keep. I make a separate note for each day the night before, and pin that note as a widget on to my phone screen. This note contains a set of tasks for the morning, afternoon and evening, sometimes location based. Every time I unlock my phone, I will be welcomed with the Huge google keep widget.

    Well, I most of the time use keep to make a shopping check list. Besides, I use the notification based reminder very frequently. I note down important event like going to buy books after few days, or having a picnic or program after a week, and set continuous reminder before the event to get myself fully prepared before the event. Also, keep small important notes related to study, which I can find right away by searching the note.

    The only 3 changes I'd make to this App to make it totally amazing would be to add the ability to create sublabels, link a note to a calendar event/ have a note show up as a calendar event, and allow for the ability to have different text structures in one note where I want them. For example, a checkbox section, then a photo with text under it, then checkboxes again.

    Keep Notes is my only note making application. It's simple, intuitive, and functional over aesthetics. I have numerous labels colour coded to find them easily with some notes with colourful backgrounds. Sometimes it is jittery when scrolling and swiping from the left to open the labels menu. But all things aside it is easy and syncs up fast even on mobile data.

    Have started using Google Keep more over the past couple of months or so. It's not bad actually. I like it's simplicity and the ability to collaborate so easily. I wish it worked a little better with Talkback on longer notes because if you are reading through a long note every time you return to it you are pushed back to the top again. I also wish we could have nesting notes or some kind of folder structure. The labels feature is not adequate enough for me.

    My second most used app/service from Google (Gmail app/service being the most used one)
    Plus Keep made my life so much easier through the years, no matter my device I always had full access to it, no stupid eco system exclusive apps (looking at you Apple and Samsung) or subscriptions.
    Which makes me fear Google is going to kill it at some point, or change it so much it becomes bad and that in the end will kill it.

    I agree with all that you have said. I have also used Keep for 11 years since its inception. I have a ton of notes saved web pages, and UA-cam videos. I have so much that I can't get to them. Unlike Google Photos, one can not search or filter by Creation Date or Modified Date or filter a given month from past years. It takes forever to Page down or Cursor down in the Reverse Chronological Keep on a desktop(because you have to wait while the screen is redrawn -even on fast computers and fast internet speeds). Google could easily make date searches available like they have always done in Google Photos. While these dates exist for each note, Google hides access to them. I never understood why Google has refused to make these basic DATE features available. Until Google allows these basic date features, most of my Google Keep Notes are unavailable. Howard

    For me the problem with it is that #1 the app doesn't remember where i left a particular note, so let's say i have a note that's a very long list, in samsung notes when i leave the note and re-enter it later the app takes me to where i left off in the list and i don't have to scroll all the way to the bottom from the top again, that's not the case with keep, every time i open the note it takes me back to the top.
    #2 the notes appear too big in the main menu
    The only thing that keeps me from switching to samsung notes is that keep syncs my notes to my google account which is important for me

    I’m afraid I don’t share the glowing joy of using Google keep , I tried to like it and use it on and off for a couple of years on different devices mostly for a shopping lists , but some things just drove me mad about it .
    For a start as someone with big hands and fingers I always found the hit boxes too tiny and I couldn’t find anyway of separating apart or making them bigger.
    If I wanted to highlight a single line in the shopping list with a different color, I could not find a way to do it.
    Rearranging the order of items on a shopping list , I couldn’t find an easy way to do it without rooting around .
    In the end I went back to apple notes which is not perfect either , but I find it easier to use.

    Functionality-wise Notion beats it for me, but I literally use it on a daily basis JUST because it's so simple and lightweight.

    You forgot the OCR function of Keep. It’s super convenient, too.

    As a developer, I really want to use Keep, but the lack of Markdown and code block support is a big let down.

    It's my only note taking app. I'd love to see Mardown support and an API to integrate into non-Google services.
