It happens to the best of us: you’re out and about, and suddenly you think of something you need to do at home. Or, you’re looking at your pantry, and want to make sure you get the right groceries for the week. Out comes your phone and your note-taking app of choice. But which app is the best for you?
Google Keep
Google Keep is my personal favorite since I use the rest of Google’s services—but even if you’re not all-in on Google’s ecosystem, it’s worth taking a look at Keep.
Keep syncs all your notes to your Google account, so you know it’s backed up. You can read your notes on any device with the Google Keep app (iOS, Android, or Chrome extension) or by visiting the Google Keep web-page.
Keep lets you color code your notes, pin important stuff to the top of your list, and archive notes that you don’t want to see every day. As for the notes themselves, you can make a checklist, a drawing or a doodle, or just type in plain text. You can also record your voice, insert a drawing, or add a collaborator from your contacts. Keep goes one step further for voice recordings: you can have them automatically transcribed into text.
Keep is minimal compared to the other options, but that’s part of the beauty. You don’t have to sort through a bunch of options: just write down whatever’s on your mind. When you open Keep again, you don’t sort through a bunch of folders: everything is either staring you in the face or it’s archived.
