No incentive was offered I originally opened Google Keep because I saw it in my Google apps and didn't know what it was, so I clicked into it just out of curiosity. So glad I did!! It's now one of my most utilized apps and took over to replace how I used to use the Notes app on my iPhone. I like that I can access Keep from anywhere I log into my Google account. For me it's easier to organize and manage my various lists and notes. I have wild ADHD so having Keep has been extremely helpful. I need to write down everything and anything that I want or need to remember because if I don't it's immediately forgotten like it never existed. I'm able to make notes, or save pictures, write myself things I need to go back to, I also use it just as a brain dump/journal when I need to just organize my thoughts. Keep is awesome and I highly recommend, plus it's free with a Google Account so definitely a HUGE value for zero money since it doesn't cost me anything! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Google Keep is my "go-to" for quick notes, brainstorming, random things I want to remember to check on, grocery lists, basically anything "informal" that I need to jot down, especially on the go. It's great for my own task management too, I really like the features it has that allow me to paste pictures, color code my notes, and that it's quick and easy to navigate and find the specific note I want to add to. #### Cons The only "con" is that I wish I could change the font within specific notes. It's nice that I can change the background and add pictures so I am able to organize that way, but the additional customization to change font size and color would definitely be a major improvement for me! --- ### A Keeper - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Julie K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Google Keep is an absolute life saver! You can make to-do lists, save links, add images, and even remind yourself of emails. The function and features are a dream for anyone who likes to stay organized! You can even get your to-do lists right on your phone to never forget a thing. #### Cons My only real complaint is that I wish it was easier to customize the headers, fonts, and even colors. As someone who like their to-do list to not just be functional but also look pretty I wish this was a little easier with Google Keep. --- ### Keep on Keepin' On! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Claire S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Keep has helped me to store and organize links, reminders, photos, and lots of other information over the years. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love that I can save various types of information in Google Keep. It's convenient because I can use it on multiple devices, and it all syncs together. #### Cons It is difficult to find something that I do not like about Google Keep. It is helpful in keeping me organized, and has features that I like. I would say it's not the flashiest or fanciest app, but it does the basics. --- ### Google Keep is very helpful in everyday life. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kelly P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I love that Google Keep helps me stay organized with notes. I love the color coding and list feature that you can check off. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I started using Google Keep on my phone. I keep notes in it and I pin documents that I need at the top. I make lots of lists using this app as well. And, I like that it is a shared document between my phone and computer. #### Cons I am not sure of the difference between archive and trash. Also, I would like to figure out how to hide some notes but categorize them if needed later. --- ### Great quick notes taking app!! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Taher A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Great app to be used for quick notetaking and frequent use, not great for extended notetaking either typing or pen input as the UI is not designed around pen input. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros This app is very easy to use, has great quality features and also syncs everything on your Google account, for easy access on all devices. I particularly like the pin feature for notes, absent on other notes apps like apple notes and Samsung notes. UI/IX is also top notch. #### Cons I don't like the lack of pen support, I have pen support on my laptop and a galaxy ultra device with an s pen, but because Google keep lacks good pen support and features around it, whenever I have to take notes using my pen which is often I have to switch to something like OneNote. --- ### Great note taking and list making tool from Google - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Subhobrata S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered One of the best tools to take quick notes, to-do lists, and rough sketches. I've been using Keep for more than 3 years now and am completely satisfied. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Very handy app for making quick notes, lists or even sketches. I often use Google Keep to take notes during meetings and don't need to keep a diary and pen. It's super easy to copy and transfer into a Word Doc later. Most importantly, it autosaves in real time, so you don't miss even a single word you typed, in case you accidentally close the app #### Cons I would have liked it better if Google Keep had some basic formatting capabilities like Bold and Italics. While they do have lists and check boxes, it would have been great to be able to bold, italicize and highlight text as well --- ### Simple with so much handy features - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Amr A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered This app is on my home screen and I use it on a daily basis. I love it's simplicity with the ability to do so many things with it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Gives you a variety of options to store your notes such as audio, image, text, list and even drawing. I love the ability to use a a combination of list, pictures and drawing in the same note. It's snappy and very responsive. The notes can be shared easily and quickly for collaborations. I love the fact that multiple collaborators can contribute to the same note simultaneously. The syncing is very smooth and effective. This is ideal in many situations such as shopping list. My partner can update the shopping list while I'm at the grocery store ticking items on the same list, which saves lots of time and hassle. Different notes can be given different colours or backgrounds, making it easy to distinguish a specific note when you're looking for it in a hurry. The search bar is super useful and can help you find your notes very quickly. It's very easy to organise your notes by labelling them and you can create your own labels. If you don't want a specific note to appear on the main page, you can archive it but still find it if it's labelled. Overall, the app is well thought of, very easy to use and very practical. It's amazing how they made it simple with so much handy options. #### Cons If you mistakenly started a text, it's easy to turn it into a list but you cannot do the opposite. On older versions of android the app sometimes stops working when rotating the screen. --- ### Google keep has made my life easier! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nathaniel F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
