Better yet, these can be automatically displayed in Google Calendar. (Keep even allows for pinning of notes.)Ĩ) Reminders: Keep can set reminders to notes.
(It’s got checklists too for those who need it.)Ħ) Folders: Ok, more precisely, “labels.” This is basic functionality allowing for organization of notes.ħ) Reordering: The ability to reorder notes, though not so user friendly (each note has to be manually dragged and dropped and this can be a pain), is more than the iOS Notes app offers, the latter of which sorts with the most recently edited note on top and doesn’t allow for manual resorting. Across the board with Google’s offerings, syncing is top of the line.ĥ) Notes: It wouldn’t be Keep without the note-taking. (Realistically, Evernote calls for a subscription.)Ĥ) Sync: Google’s sync has had excellent reliability and just works. My minimum requirement for considering adoption of any new app is that it be cross-platform with web browser, Android, and iOS.Ģ) Longevity: Safe to assume (I think) it’ll be around for a long time and with no less features than it has now, unlike some random developer where you can’t usually take for granted that their relatively new app will still exist 5 or, much less, 10+ years from now.ģ) Free: $0. Here’s 10 things Keep’s got going for it: Cross-platform longevity free sync notes folders reordering reminders search speed.ġ) Cross-platform: Keep is cross-platform. The question’s regarding a new app starting from scratch, on a clean slate, being able to copy its data to offline local storage.)įirstly I’m not out to bash Keep. (I’m not asking about transferring data out of Keep, I’m fine with manual copy-paste. What’s the options for apps that allow for export of data? Short story: After using Keep for a few years I’m seeking a free cross-platform alternative which, even if requiring cloud-usage, allows for saving a local copy (or backup) so I can feel confident that when the once-in-a-few-years data loss from the cloud occurs, due to whatever reason, I won’t have lost data.
