Google Keep

Sticky-note style capture for quick ideas

Description

A thought you want to keep, a line worth saving, something to buy on the way home — putting that into a proper note-taking app feels ceremonial, and writing it on paper guarantees you lose it.

Google Keep is the digital sticky note. Open, type, close — no folder to pick, no title to invent. Each note is a card you can drag, colour and pin. Checklists tick off and collapse completed items to the bottom. It syncs through your Google account, so a note taken on the phone is on the desktop immediately, and location reminders fire when you actually reach the shop. With the browser extension, selected text on a page saves as a note with its source link attached.

Features



Web clipping: Right-click selected text to save it, or capture the page link in one click, with the source recorded in the note.

Sticky-note cards: Notes sit as coloured cards you can reorder, pin and tint — a wall of stickies rather than a file tree.

Checklists: Tick items off and watch completed ones fold away, which suits shopping and packing lists.

Time and place reminders: Beyond a scheduled reminder, a note can surface when you arrive somewhere, like your list at the shop door.

Syncs everywhere: Web, Android, iOS and the browser extension share one Google account, so captures appear instantly across devices.
