In the year of our Google 2009, when the mighty tech titan made the audacious choice to shutter its notebook service, it paved the way for other apps like Evernote to rise as the eminent purveyors of note-taking services, brimming with a plethora of features.
But lo and behold! Behold a new contender emerges from the fortress of Google, a note-taking service christened Google Keep. This app, at present, graces only the realm of Android, with no mention of an iOS variant. The aesthetic of its dashboard exudes simplicity, resembling the tidy elegance of Pinterest and Tumblr.
Features:
1. Thou canst append photos, lists, or script to fashion thy notes.
The app doth permit thee to immortalize a moment in a photo, jot down lists, or craft bespoke textual missives.
2. Enunciate thy thoughts to create a note
By harnessing Google’s speech recognition sorcery, ye can fashion voice notes with accompanying translated text in the tongue of English or thy device’s native language.
3. Bestow hues upon thy notes for swift retrieval
Navigating thy notes hath ne’er been so facile and visually appealing. Color codes render spotting thy priorities an effortless pursuit.
4. Dual visage: Single column view or multi-column view
Customize thy dashboard by opting for a single column or a multi-column display for thy notes.
5. Edit with a swipe, add widgets to thy homestead and bolted screen
With a simple swipe, ye may bid farewell to notes. Widgets allow for instant note-taking or even feature lock screen widgets for Android devices of version 4.2 and above.
6. Sync thy notes and access them across the web
Google preserves all thy notes in a sacred vault known as Google Drive, safeguarded by thine own Gmail account.
As this initial iteration doth mature, one doth envisage grand updates akin to integrating Google Maps to pinpoint addresses written in thy notes or transforming notes into calendar events. With but a few improvements, Google Keep hath the potential to ascend as the slayer of Evernote on Android.
