Use the main board for relevant notes, pinning the important ones at the top move all those that aren't relevant, timely, or immediately actionable to the archive. There's a way to take advantage of Keep for longer, though: archiving notes. These features support Keep's speed, but it could get hard to manage when you're working at scale. You can move the important notes to the top by pinning them, assign background colors, and top it off with labels (the equivalent of Evernote's tags). The digital bulletin board has two views: a grid and a list. Google Keep's organization features are ok for daily notes, errands, and random thoughts, but piecing it all together and adding context is more complicated.

These features may seem simple, but they're great as you scale your knowledge base, especially when you start accumulating notes in the hundreds. This speed feels great, and it's useful when you take notes on the go or when you want to save multiple notes in quick succession. Open the app, and one click/tap later, you're already writing. If you're afraid that brilliant idea is going to slip between your fingers, Google Keep lets you capture it before it evaporates.Ĭreating a new note is super fast.
