What changed

  1. 01Bug fixes and performance improvements

    This build’s listed changes are bug fixes and performance improvements. In day-to-day use, Keep offers a quick place to jot down a thought, make a list, or record a voice memo. Colors, labels, and search help you keep notes organized and bring saved information back when you need it.

  2. 02Worth using: quick note capture

    When an idea comes up, you can write a short note, snap a photo of something to remember, or speak a voice memo. The description also lists widgets for phones and tablets, plus tiles and complications on Wear OS devices, as ways to start capturing thoughts quickly.

  3. 03Worth using: shared lists and reminders

    Keep supports sharing and collaboration, so friends or family can work together on notes such as a grocery list or trip plan. You can also set a reminder for a note, such as remembering to pick up groceries later in the week. These tools make lists useful beyond simple storage.
