Keep is an excellent note-taking app — hey Google, please don’t kill it.
Keep is, if you didn’t already know,. It’s fast, available on Android, iOS, and the web, and it manages to be both extremely simple and quite clever. Paste a link into a note, and the card reformats as a rich preview so you know exactly what it is. A single-line note just looks like a Post-it, but a longer note looks more like a document.
The big problem with Keep is that its future seems tenuous. It doesn’t get much attention or many feature upgrades — the app is a full 10 years old, and this is maybe its biggest update ever! You’re never going to see some long speech at the I/O developer conference about how great Keep is and all the cool stuff you can do with it. That makes users reasonably worried that Google might at any moment kill the app, as it has so many others, as part of some cost-cutting or refocusing initiative.
. The formatting options will presumably be available on the web and iOS at some point, and they make Keep even more powerful on top of that simple interface. Keep remains one of the best note-taking apps on Android, and in general, and hopefully it stays that way.A weekly newsletter by David Pierce designed to tell you everything you need to download, watch, read, listen to, and explore that fits in The Verge’s universe.
