### Google Keep is one of my all time favorite apps!

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!

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.

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

#### 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.

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

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.

It's been good. The fact that it syncs with your Google account is good because you can retrieve it from anywhere once logged in. It has a nice UI but it definitely has some work in terms of managing the notes.

#### Cons

I think there's needs to be some sort of structural feature introduced. At the moment, all the blocks are scattered everywhere and looks a little messy. It needs some folder or structural feature to organise the notes.

I needed something that would sync with my Google Suite products.

Google Keep helps me to stay organized with lists, especially to-do lists. This is essential for the way that I run my business. I take down everything that needs to be done in google keep, utilize the checkbox features which allows you to slide items up and down in order in a list. That allows me to prioritize the items on my list. After prioritizing my list, I can schedule each item as an appointment in my google calendar.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

What I like most about Google Keep is its ease of use. When using Keep it is very easy to catch onto how to use it. The UI puts everything front and center, making it easy to find the most used features in every scenario. I also love that Keep is available anywhere I have an internet connection. The app is on my phone, my iPad and my laptop.

#### Cons

What I like least about Google Keep is that it does not file notes into folders. Generally, folders can help create a cleaner UI , where as having every note show up on the main screen of the app can feel cluttered and overwhelming at times.

#### Reasons for choosing Google Keep

Keep was the simplest to use and is very specifically useful in the way that I use it.

#### Reasons for switching to Google Keep

AnyDo introduced pricing for it's best features and I didn't find it useful enough to pay so I sought a free option and I prefer something within the Google eco system.

I must admit that our general experience has been positive despite the negative things that I have mentioned previously, there are still things to improve within Google Keep as what I mentioned previously, the design of the notes has to be improved, so that the notes have a much more attractive and more colorful background, in addition, the transfer system of these notes has to be improved to facilitate sending them to specific people. Our general expxerience has been positive because day by day this platform helps us to takes notes within the company, we can write anythin in these notes and store them for later, in addition, we can add reminders to these notes to access them in an hour or specific date. I'm pleased with the general functionality of Google Keep, it is a fairly easy software to use and it connects immediately with my Google account, so there is no need to create any additional account in order to use the software.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The first thing that I like about Google Keep is that it allows me to make a much more complete note-taking, because this application allows me to insert images or videos in the note that I'm making at a specific moment, this helps the note be much more complete. Another thing that I like about Google Keep is that all the notes are stored in the Google cloud no matter how long it takes, for example, I can create a note and leave it there even more that five years, in the same way I will have access to that note wth all the information that was previously written, this is amazing since I can store information for a long time. I should also mention that I love the feature of adding tags to notes, because these tags help me find specific notes, I can add custom tags and it makes it so much easier for me to find notes for a specific topic.

#### Cons

The first thing I don't like about Google Keep is that in order to transfer one onf the previously described notes, you must transfer this note to Google documents, this way you can transfer a shared link to another person, it is not possible to transfer this note directly from the Google Keep app, and this is really annoying. Another thing that I do not like about this platform is that it is not possible to add a personalized design to the notes that you have written, you can only add a black backgroung or a white background to the notes, it is not possible to add your own design or a much more attractive design to the notes.

I really like how easy it is to use Google Keep for quick, on-the-go stuff. It's great for work stuff and simple lists, like what to get from the grocery store. There it sits on my phone or computer, so no hassle.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The best thing about Google Keep is that it's very easy to use and just right for quick notes. I can use it from my phone and computer, which is great. Plus, with the labels, it keeps me organized when my brain looks like a mess.

#### Cons

I don't love the fact that Google Keep doesn't have folders, and everything is kinda thrown into one big pile, making it very hard to keep things organized. I wish to be able to put them in folders so it looks neater.
