My hubby is from Montreal and has difficulty with English. We started watching you on TV, a few moons ago and he was able to understand you and we BOTH enjoyed your shows. Needless to say, we were VERY disappointed when you disappeared from our TV channel. Once again, needless to say that we were OVERJOYED when we, accidentally, found you on RUclips and BOTH of us subscribed to your channel... I think this was a month ago, or so. So, we're proud to be part of your 200,000 subscribers. As for THIS Vlog, I find it most interesting as I myself have just started a RUclips channel - Rosa's Quilted Garden - and have worried about negative comments and such. Your insight of this predicament... such as... what each person's level of acceptance or tolerance is... well, made me realize that I am the captain of my own ship and when I get to that bridge... or sailing underneath that bridge, well, I will have to decide what I will accept or not accept. Thanks for giving me food for thought! I've always respected your thoughts and opinions. We may not always agree but, for the most part... we do. :-) Please don't stop doing what you do. Hubby and I both enjoy you and your Vlogs!
I realize this video is 3 years old but I just viewed it. We have been using Google Keep for our weekly shopping list for over a year now. The best thing about is it that I can share the Keep notes with the whole family and they can add to the shopping list when they use the last of something. An added bonus is that it updates immediately. When I get to the store, the others can see me checking off items and they can add items while I am in the store. More than once I've gone back to the store to get new items.
Steve, I made a discovery today in Google Keep and wanted to share it with you. I was creating Tick Boxes (as you would for a shopping list) and I accidentally moved a Tick Box horizontally, thus creating a child-tick box under a normal (parent) one. I can already see the benefits when two or more tasks have to be done simultaneously.
Omg so good - just saw that feature too... plus the drawing ability for notes you like to scrawl out rather that type... amazing, thanks for sharing this tip too... GOOGLE NOTES - so good... i wanna eat it! Lol.
I'm very visual and appreciate the fact you pointed out with the picture of each offering. Also appreciate that you didn't talk 125 miles an hour ! Thanks
Hope you’re still reading this. I watched this video when it came out and have been using Keep ever since. Shopping lists, articles on places I plan to visit, etc. But I just finished my biggest Keep project to date. A 102K word novel! Using the checklist, I added ideas for scenes or character or place descriptions I wanted to get in the story. Then, I reorganized them in a general order of appearance and started writing my book. Sometimes, this writing would give me other ideas for other characters or refinements for other ideas. So, I’d add, or update, or in some cases where a particular idea turned out to be implausible, I’d delete it. I ended up using over 175 items in my book, and moved another 30 or so to a new checklist Keep entry to be used for the sequel I’m planning. This is the fourth book I’ve written and it’s the easiest way I’ve ever written a book!
I teach my students how to use Google Keep when researching for papers and building an initial bibliography. It's great for concept building and outlining for projects: I colour code the notes for chapters/sections, pin them during the 'live' phase of the project, and easily move them around as I build a hierarchy. When done, a simple archive it and voila! Love, love, love Google Keep.
I'm a long time user of Google Keep. My husband introduced me to this App. It truly has helped us in one major area...the shopping list. I love that we can both text in real time while he shops for groceries, especially when he wants my opinion on price or an alternative item. Enjoy watching in real time when he checks/cross marks the items on the list. By the way, I'm a new viewer and I will be checking out your other videos too.
I'm a big fan of Google Keep. I use it almost daily. I never got on the Evernote train so I'm glad to hear what I'm using is good enough. 😁 I shared this video with my Facebook group of small business owners, too.
Steve, I tried Evernote and for my 75 year old brain it was more complicated than I wanted. I really enjoyed your Google Keep review and I will give it a try.
Hi Steve just a little note. First off Thank You for what you do for all of us. Quick note Google Keep can read OCR on the web browser. Open Notes click on drop-down/ click on grab image text. Presto reads text.
I just heard of Google Keep for the first time TODAY!!! Where have I been, you might ask. Doesn't matter. I am grateful to you for this clear, thorough, explanation, and I have shared it on one of my business FB pages, as well as with a writers' group FB page. Yes, I subscribed to your channel. You're welcome. Keep up the great work! Thank you.
HI Steve, I will be using Keep to take notes on your videos. When you say something I want to remember, I pause the video, enter my note on Keep, then start your video back up again or replay part of it so I got all the info you are sharing. Keep works great for that! All the best
Totally agree, Google Keep and Evernote are similar but very different and I use both. I like using Keep for keeping track of start-up sequences for various bits of photo gear I use, like GoPros and drones. Google Keep lets you call up the relevant details for each device faster than I can do it in Evernote. I colour code and tag all my notes for extra efficiency. Now if only Google would give us some basic text formatting tools in Keep (like bullet lists, bold and italics and highlighting) it would be perfect.
I use Evernote like a filing cabinet, where I put things that I might want to store out of sight and look up later, like swipe files and screenshots. As an Android user, I use Keep daily for more immediate details that I might have to access quickly, like grocery lists, links that I frequently share, tracking time for a couple of clients, and my daily task lists. I love putting a grocery or packing list in Keep, I can re-use the same list over and over, just un-checking the items I need, I can quickly build a list without racking my brain trying to remember items.
Hi Steve. I watch many of your videos and try to keep up with your Webinars. I am now a Premium Evernote user (for over two years) and find it great. However, on your recommendation, I took a look at Google Keep and find it a simpler and quicker way to take notes and reminders when I am "mobile". I then transfer/cut & paste what is relevant into EN later when I'm at my PC where I can format it better, tag it and put it in a relevant Notebook. I'm "old school" (from early Windows 1989) & still like a folder/sub folder structure but now search on tags and labels. Keep up the good work - I'm loving it. Regards, Steve (from the U.K)
Thanks for the video Steve. I use Evernote ever since I saw your demo and was reluctant to use Keep until now. Since you said you read every comment I’d like to say you’re doing a terrific job! thanks again.
I'm liking Google Keep more than Evernote at the moment but after watching last week's webinar there is a new contender I am also loving, "Notion",thus bumping Evernote to 3rd place.;-} May the note-taking app battle commence!
Superb video. I was never even aware of this capability. Now I have set it up on my android phone and laptop. Thanks much for another fine presentation.
I've been an Evernote user for 15 years and I still use it - now 5002 notes and going strong! (Including notes transferred from earlier note taking apps InfoSelect and Tornado - the latter was a DOS program from the late 1980s!) But I now use Keep as well. I like Keep's simplicity and speed, and tend to use it for quick notes that have a temporary use. I could do that with Evernote too, but over the years, Evernote has become cumbersome and slow as it added functions like a Swiss Army Knife. Like the To-do list, as if there weren't plenty of alternatives. Now I mainly just use Evernote for things I want to keep as long term reference. Or things that just work better in Evernote, like illustrated recipes. I really hope Keep avoids the feature creep that has spoiled Evernote. And spoiled InfoSelect before it. I don't seem to have any problem using Keep in parallel with Evernote.
Wow! One of the best tutorials I've seen on RUclips. And are you actually editing your clips, no one seems to edit. Your audio, visuals and demo are right on. Great work and I will be using Google Keep thanks to you.
I use both Evernote and Keep. Here are 3-power user tips to create a "STRUCTURE" in Keep :: In GOOGLE™ Keep you can actually create "TOPIC FOLDERS" (or more realistically "GROUPS") by implementing a "@" sign as the first character in a "LABEL" One can also take an individual "NOTE" url and shorten it and paste this in another "NOTE" linking two disparate notes. Thinking "out of the box" you can use the colour coding as a very specific designation in perhaps "time" or "activity" All very simple to implement. As usual thanks soo much Steve and, as we say, MAZAL TOV
You can have google keep on your desktop (it will not be an app, but for me it's great that i have it +the google calendar and drive on my taskbar). To do it from chrome go to the three dots at the top and right on your screen and from the section for more tools you can add it to the desktop even without browser window to look like an app. Furthermore, I prefer keep from evernote and this is why: it's just notes!!! i don't want much. In keep you can label and color everything, share a list with others, archive stuff you did or maybe ideas to have your note page more clean and pretty much it covers all that I need. seriously you can do everything that evernote do with other google apps and some other apps as well. Also I like to have all my things as minimal as possible. I think that google offer a pretty sweet deal with all the productivity apps. It offers all in one account functionality and with great UIs. Of course everything can be made better. So I want to ask you to make a video for a summary of the best(in your opinion) apps that we can use for different use cases in our day to day life. For example for note keeping we have keep, onenote, evernote etc. for calendars? , for emails?, cloud? etc. Great video and great content on the channel.
Thanks Steve. I left Evernote because the power of it also came with harder to use. I'd put money that Google will "keep" upgrading this to become more.
No idea how your video found me. But this was my first intro to Google Keep. Nice job! I never heard of it before, nor you. I’ll watch for your other videos.
Thank you for this video. I will start using Google Keep. I tried Evernote a few years ago, but don't use it. I still use Info Select 8 (the current version is 11) for all my permanent notes -- passwords, accounts, taking notes on a video, etc. But Google Keep has so many other uses: reminders, shopping lists, bookmarks for "watch later" videos. I love it!
I haven't used Keep yet, but I will now. Thank you. Awhile back I had to choose between Evernote and OneNote. I chose OneNote and I love, love, love, it.
What a great video! Very personable, very engaging. As much as I like your personality - i'm glad you keep a solid focus on the content. I like your balance of humor and useful info. I agree with you about Google Keep, and I came to this video because I wanted something to accompany my Facebook post. Good job!
I love this man's style. He's down to earth, understandable and pleasant to listen to. I will watch for more of this websites. I've been an Evernote fan but now I'll also check out Google Keep
I agree they have separate killer use cases. I can't use Evernote at work, as my work environment is Google based, so I use Evernote for my personal business and my side business, and Keep, in conjunction with google Docs at work. It's a good combo. I can grab Keep if I need to take a note immediately, and then when I have time to create a formatted Doc from a template, I can import my notes from Google Keep. One thing I will say, if ever Google added the functionality that Apple did to its own Notes app, I think I might forgo Evernote, but I would have to see exactly how much functionality they add. Great job, Steve, as always!
I bought EverNote and found at work they block the use of it. Google Keep is perfect to keep work and home notes organized. Thanks for the review. - Parker
Awesome Steve! I've been in love with your videos since I discovered this channel. I use Keep for fast notes and Evernote for saving things long-term. I hope you do a Dropbox 2018 review!
You are AMAZING!!! Rarely do I find myself yelping at the TV, hands in the air or downloading and trying new apps while youre still talking about them... all three of these spooky-good phenomenons happened in this 🆒️ non-action, info-packed vid - plus may I mention how fab it is to have someone give me tech tips i didnt know or knew less than i now know I needed to about them. Thank you, Steve - youre a total tech weapon and the only gun youll ever see in my place lol! Cheers - keep up the unreal content, love your TOP 5 APPS vids too - woohoo! x
I personally like Google Keep better, I to have used both. You miss out on some features but I feel it's just easier and more user friendly all around.
I was a Premium Evernote user but now I use Google keep. Drive and photos. Unlimited free storage and devices. Breaking up is hard to do but you know it makes sense.
First of all, thank you so much for your videos. I have watched a couple now and find them very high quality with lots of pertinent information. That is a rare commodity these days on RUclips. I have been using Evernote for a few years now and I love it for more permanent storage of all of my documents. I had files of papers, recipes, photos, receipts, etc. that are all now digitally stored through Evernote, reducing clutter in my office. Also, by using tags, I can search and find documents easily through EN. However, like you suggested, I see a potential application for using Google Keep for smaller work, short reminder notes, and to-do lists. I use Workflowy for that but maybe I can transition that piece over the Keep. Not sure yet. Do you know of any other potential integration advantages to Keep in working with Google Calendar (btw, love your videos on that) and/or Gmail. If there were, that could make it even more powerful....maybe I should work for Google? :)
Really appreciate the video! I used Evernote but I found it clunky and slow. I don’t like my notes stored in their proprietary format and was concerned about backup or what might happen to my daily journal that I’ve collected for years if Evernote shut down. So I switched to Simplenote which I love for it’s plain text simplicity, easy backup, powerful search and excellent cross platform syncing. Now I want to try Keep for a few features that Simplenote may not have but I’m still concerned about backup in a useable format.
Nicely presented thank you. I use a combination of Apple Notes and Wunderlist. I will be giving Google Keep a go to see if I can condense my note taking and list making skills to one app. ONE NOTE TAKING APP TO RULE THEM ALL........
Once your image is saved to your note, Google Keep will use OCR to add metadata to your note. This metadata allows you to search the text in your image. There is additional processing which is done to the image as well to classify it for search. There is also an option to parse the text out of your image explicitly. Lastly, there is a chrome app for Keep that will give you a more desktop-like experience.
I came at this from a different angle. While I've used Evernote in the past, these days I've mostly been collecting notes in simple text documents and Trello boards. It's becoming too scattered and I'm finding that shuffling the data around is a lot of overhead. I'm trying to find something very simplistic but effective, and I think Keep might be what I need. Great vid!
Thanks Steve. I just started about a month ago using the Google ecosystem of Keep, Drive and Tasks. I needed a way to get my GTD on a simpler scale. I was spending more time organizing my next actions than doing them! It is working great especially with the Gmail intergration. That being said I am still using my Evernote. I don't see the need to choose one over the other as voiced in some comments. We can all play nice together.
I haven’t tried Google Keep yet, but found this interesting and will give a try. I am not sure if it has now been updated or not, but I do know using the Google app you can go into the search bar and go to camera and it does convert information off of a camera and put it into a contact. I’ll have to check that out in Keep when I try using it to see if has upgraded.
Keep camera does parse text from photos to notes and keep notes can be very easily combined with Google docs as notes for papers and manuscripts especially useful for attribution.
I don't use Keep very often because I prefer to have a notebook hierachy as opposed to labels and tags. Having said that I don't use Evernote anywhere near as much as I used due to their new pricing pricing structure and also since Evernote changed the fact that in the free version you can only connect 2 devices. I have switched to Nimbus Note which I find gives you more for your money...or not, as it's free version is better than Evernote. It would be interesting if you could have a look at Nimbus Note when you have time Steve and see what you think of it. One final thing...I'm pleased to see that you are going to be using Webinar Jam again for Webinar Wednesday :)
I used Google Keep pretty extensively, even before I used Evernote. It's very quick and handy - very useful if you need/keep lists of things or for jotting down of quick ideas (the STT function is awesome). I prefer Pocket as a Link Aggregator/Read Later tool, though. And most recently I phased G Keep out totally, because you don't have the ability to connect notes like you can with Evernote. The main screen also gets cluttered really fast when you have a lot of content on it. Both of this problems ruled it out for research over time, as I'm the "make a file pile and pick the cherries out" type of guy when I'm on an information hunt and create Master Notes with summaries of articles/papers in Evernote, with links to the originals. I miss the sticky notes design of G Keep, though. It's much more visceral then the Evernote.
Great breakdown on Google Keep. I didn't even know it existed til now. I use Google Calender, Gmail, etc. I have been researching what note taking app to use for goals, projects, tasks, etc. I'll give Google Keep a go. I don't need anything fancy so Keep may be better than Evernote for me.
Thanks for the demo, Steve. I was an early adapter to Evernote and prefer it for work purposes. However, I think Google keep will be a great tool for my wife and daughter.
Agree completely that Keep is the best for quick reminders, short notes and shopping lists. Plus, I really like the simplicity of it (it's pretty too!). For projects, however, Evernote wins hands down.
Nice job Steve! One little pet peeve of mine. About Google Keep being "free." I would love to see bloggers, RUclipsrs, etc., when they review Google products, not say they are free. Rather, I would like reviewers to remind folks that like everything in life, there is a price. In the case of Google products, the price is your personal information. If folks are fine with that, great. If not, this keeps that cost up- front and center so the customer can make the wisest long-term choices for the use of their limited resources. I think this is especially important for the education market, where the next generation of Google customers are being created as I write by eager teachers and administrators looking for the cheapest, short-term way to bring technology into the classroom. Personally, I think schools should be asking Google for much more than a couple free applications in exchange for millions and millions of future customers.
I've started using Opera and switch using Google and Duck Go Duck. Opera has a side bar where you can arrange apps like Messenger and Instagram as well as Opera specific Speed Dial where you can Bookmark sites and Folders where you can cluster categories of sites. There is also Opera Pinboards that is used like Keep or Pinterest without the annoying ads. I love it so much that I am not able to go back to Chrome except for when I need to do an image search by right clicking any image to search for images possibly used in fake news. You should check out Opera, but beware, you may also get hooked.
Just had to say "hi" to a fellow Opera lover. It's definitely my browser of choice on all my Android devices and gets installed immediately on new ones.. Who else gives you built-in free VPN and ad-blocking? In terms of memory, it's also less of a resource hog than Firefox and Chromium derivatives (Chrome/Brave). And for an ultra-light browser on low-end phones and tablets there's Opera Mini (but then you don't get VPN).
Thanks - yet ANOTHER great video. Google Keep now parses the wording in images - I really enjoy GK as it’s so simple and easy to use. Also very clean to use if most notes are archived. Thanks again Steve.
6:05 -- you can also select many notes and send them to Google Docs. I did that with all my notes labeled "contacts" and got all of them listed in one document. Sweet!
I am new to electronic notetaking and started using Evernote but am not at all proficient yet. I am wondering why you would need another app like Notability or GoodNotes vs Google Keep or Evernote?
You compare these 3 tools; Evernote, Google Keep, reference to OneNote. But I think an equal player, that I can love and hate for many the same reasons, is: Pocket. *My* overall choice is, Keep. Because Pocket phone app just takes too much memory, when you have to side load it on a Samsung. I can work around the lack of desktop app for Keep, because I am always working it inside the browser(s).
I use the notes app on Mac. Steve, what do you use for a CRM? I've never really used one but as I'm getting more high end connections from linkedin and podcasts it's becoming quite attractive.
HI Thank you so much for this video... Hereonwards I'll start using Google Keep; however I already have loads of material on StickyNotes, Evernote and others...Could you please temme how do I save those notes on Google Drive, pair those here or transfer the material?..... Please... :)
I have certain pre-formatted standard texts that I send from Keep on the smartphone version. I market to certain lists where a cell # is available, but no email address.
I use Keep as well as Evernote. I use EasyNotes for Keep as a PC Desktop agent. Works just fine. Don't know about the security aspects however. Hope this helps someone.
After I watched your two reviews on Google Keep, I downloaded it to my laptop and Android phone. Steve, your explanations are EXCELLENT - I will look no further. Your video was well done; it answered my concerns (*) and I no longer have to search for a similar note-taking APP to use. My concerns are if it allows me to use the CLOUD so all devices can be synced, not worried about the data space. Steve, I've been researching To-Do/Time Management App, in conjunction with the use of Google Keep. Which App would you recommend for me, so I can use Google gmail, Calender, Contact, Keep, would that be Wunderlist (most features for FREE app vs. Todoist (free version one)? To-Do Task App is mainly for my personal (and share with my family and friends). As for Wunderlist - I cannot use the Cloud and sync with my Google gmail (and Contact), right? Do I need to use the Outlook email only to sync with Wunderllist? Other than Wunderlist or Todoist, Trello, OmniFocus, etc (these are not free for trial) but if you recommend any of them, I'm willing to check it out. I shared your video with all of my friends. Thank you Steve!
Hi Steve thanks for this. I love Evernote but will experiment. Can’t figure out how to do the Siri dictation into Google Keep. Can you please give more guidance?
I found the information in this video very helpful. I was already aware of all these features within Google Keep, but this is presented very well. I was hoping to find a way to sort Google Keep notes in alphabetical order, but that apparently is a feature Google has refused to include in the platform.
Question, why did you choose Evernote over Drive for the more permanent work? Not asking because I think you chose wrong or anything just curious. I just watched your latest video on Evernote and said I'd watch this one next. And I think I'm going to move my notes from Evernote to Keep becaue I rather like the looks of Keep better. I don't really use a lot of the paid parts of Evernote. Thanks for these videos. I love how you really dive into using an application before reviewing it and give a good, honest review.
Thank you so much for all you provide for us on your RUclips channel I find it very informative and delightful information. I personally really love your narrative your positive attitude and find you very charming . I am starting a new business operation in the spring providing window cleaning rough cleaning house washing surface cleaning services in North Carolina, I am computer illiterate however I am not totally software literate, so I've been researching found you and what a blessing I am now in to expanding my mind and making running this business with my son easier through the use of technology thank you. Dan @ American veterans power cleaning solutions.
Use both - Keep is a like a pick-up truck vs Evernote is like a semi-truck. Both are great. Keep works on all my devices. Keep is great for capturing contact info off emails & web pages. Love the checklist for shopping with the geographical reminder feature (e.g. Costco) that pops up when I get to the store.
Off topic, but I see you're using a Behringer board to run your condenser mic through. Have you tried the Samson G Track Pro? I just got one and ditched my my setup - that was a lot like yours. Great sound quality and a lot of options as well.
@dottotech great video. I use Evernote and I think I like Google Keep better for things I would use it for. Love the simplicity and convenience of Google Keep. Always love your videos Steve.
Hi Steve, I am really glad you did this review. I have Google Keep and OneNote but since I have been using Evernote premium for more than 6 years I can't seem to like anything else the same way I like Evernote! :-) And I am a techie but I don't feel I have the time to learn the bells and whistles of new software yet. I will play around again with Keep. The browser extension and tags/labels certainly help a lot. would be good to try and import some notes from Evenote into Keep! One thing I find Keep very useful is that it is connected to Google home, so if you have one of those speakers/Assistants Keep will be a Keeper! Let's see what happens.
I use Evernote primarily for writing and organizing workshop notes and for collecting my answers as an administrator for a professional forum. I often use it in places where internet access isn't available. Google Keep's interface looks more like Post-It notes than lecture notes, so it may not quite meet my needs.
Steve, thankyou for the great video, I personally use both applications, however, is the a way on how to integrate both Evernote & keep to Google calendar? Meaning, how do I get my notes and reminders on either app to show on Google calendar?? I've been wanting to do this for ages and still no luck, any help with this please?? Thanks again in advance. Seed.
I like google keep I would love it to have a password lock on certain notes to keep them private what I love about google keep is the reminders and how they show on my google calendar, this is super handy!!!
I personally use it everyday at work. Instead of using pen and paper, I use google keep. It's useful especially taking photos inside google keep. Then I send copy to google drive and it will convert automatically to a google doc.
Love your videos - thanks. I too am a long term Evernote user and I just hate so much about their pricing but the one thing they have that keeps me is the Searching in Images. With years of scanned documents you can effortlessly find receipts, proposals, reports....whatever that you scanned years ago in Evernote and as far as I know nothing else comes close...?
Roger, I agree with you...searching scanned documents is unparalleled. Don't know how Andrea above can't find things in Evernote. I always say it is a file manager that makes it impossible not to find things.
Hi Steve love your channel just subscribed. For someone that has used Google Keep from it's birth I find it very useful. It's like Post It notes but on steroids. I also use One Note and did use Evernote in the early days. I use Google Keep as a quick note taking up which I then use to feed and develop larger more detailed notes in One Note. Looking forward to checking out some of you other videos. Cheers Paul from downunder in Aus.
As always thanks again for sharing your great knowledge in your awesome reviews and tutorials. Secondly, you made me revisit Google Keeps as I kind of gave up on it but I am not seeing the add-on within Gmail so I would be interested to see how I can make it work for me. Lastly, I was able to find out how to remove all Google Goals and Events that wouldnt remove or allow you to modify the time you would want to complete your goals. unfortunatly it required a complete wipe of the calander but I copied over all the important appointments I had to a different calander so that when I perofrmed the wipe nothing important was lost. Now I just use it for new upcming appointments and keep my re-occuring appointments at differnt calander. Intrested to see how this will work for me. Thanks again!

My hubby is from Montreal and has difficulty with English. We started watching you on TV, a few moons ago and he was able to understand you and we BOTH enjoyed your shows. Needless to say, we were VERY disappointed when you disappeared from our TV channel. Once again, needless to say that we were OVERJOYED when we, accidentally, found you on RUclips and BOTH of us subscribed to your channel... I think this was a month ago, or so. So, we're proud to be part of your 200,000 subscribers. As for THIS Vlog, I find it most interesting as I myself have just started a RUclips channel - Rosa's Quilted Garden - and have worried about negative comments and such. Your insight of this predicament... such as... what each person's level of acceptance or tolerance is... well, made me realize that I am the captain of my own ship and when I get to that bridge... or sailing underneath that bridge, well, I will have to decide what I will accept or not accept. Thanks for giving me food for thought! I've always respected your thoughts and opinions. We may not always agree but, for the most part... we do. :-) Please don't stop doing what you do. Hubby and I both enjoy you and your Vlogs!
Ooops... posted under the wrong Vlog. Sorry. Newbie here. *lifting hand in the air*
I realize this video is 3 years old but I just viewed it.
We have been using Google Keep for our weekly shopping list for over a year now. The best thing about is it that I can share the Keep notes with the whole family and they can add to the shopping list when they use the last of something.
An added bonus is that it updates immediately. When I get to the store, the others can see me checking off items and they can add items while I am in the store. More than once I've gone back to the store to get new items.
Steve, I made a discovery today in Google Keep and wanted to share it with you. I was creating Tick Boxes (as you would for a shopping list) and I accidentally moved a Tick Box horizontally, thus creating a child-tick box under a normal (parent) one. I can already see the benefits when two or more tasks have to be done simultaneously.
Omg so good - just saw that feature too... plus the drawing ability for notes you like to scrawl out rather that type... amazing, thanks for sharing this tip too... GOOGLE NOTES - so good... i wanna eat it! Lol.
Onhnjj
I'm very visual and appreciate the fact you pointed out with the picture of each offering. Also appreciate that you didn't talk 125 miles an hour ! Thanks
Hope you’re still reading this. I watched this video when it came out and have been using Keep ever since. Shopping lists, articles on places I plan to visit, etc. But I just finished my biggest Keep project to date. A 102K word novel! Using the checklist, I added ideas for scenes or character or place descriptions I wanted to get in the story. Then, I reorganized them in a general order of appearance and started writing my book. Sometimes, this writing would give me other ideas for other characters or refinements for other ideas. So, I’d add, or update, or in some cases where a particular idea turned out to be implausible, I’d delete it. I ended up using over 175 items in my book, and moved another 30 or so to a new checklist Keep entry to be used for the sequel I’m planning. This is the fourth book I’ve written and it’s the easiest way I’ve ever written a book!
What a great system! Thanks so much for Sharing it! I am just thinking about refreshing this video, so I may mention this in the sequel!
I teach my students how to use Google Keep when researching for papers and building an initial bibliography. It's great for concept building and outlining for projects: I colour code the notes for chapters/sections, pin them during the 'live' phase of the project, and easily move them around as I build a hierarchy. When done, a simple archive it and voila! Love, love, love Google Keep.
Great description, thanks!
This is awesome! Thank you for this suggestion!
Daryl Bambic Where does my Google Keep sync to? Can't see it in my Google drive!!!
dottotech Where does my Google Keep sync to? Can't see it in my Google drive!!!
Go to keep.google.com and add a shortcut to your app launcher. It syncs to your drive so you can open it up from email or even from a Google doc.
I have used Keep since it became available. Awesome for my situation which is retired (78 years old) with a not so great memory!
Wow...good for you to be using technology. My husband is 73 and he still will not use technology. He keeps asking me to do it for him.
I know that feeling!
I'm a long time user of Google Keep. My husband introduced me to this App. It truly has helped us in one major area...the shopping list. I love that we can both text in real time while he shops for groceries, especially when he wants my opinion on price or an alternative item. Enjoy watching in real time when he checks/cross marks the items on the list. By the way, I'm a new viewer and I will be checking out your other videos too.
I imagine you can do that with any note taking app.
I'm a big fan of Google Keep. I use it almost daily. I never got on the Evernote train so I'm glad to hear what I'm using is good enough. 😁 I shared this video with my Facebook group of small business owners, too.
Been using Google Keep for about a year now and you actually showed me some new ways to utilize the app! Your review was great and a joy to watch.
Awesome! Thank you!
Steve, I tried Evernote and for my 75 year old brain it was more complicated than I wanted. I really enjoyed your Google Keep review and I will give it a try.
Hi Steve just a little note. First off Thank You for what you do for all of us. Quick note Google Keep can read OCR on the web browser. Open Notes click on drop-down/ click on grab image text. Presto reads text.
Love that feature!
I just heard of Google Keep for the first time TODAY!!! Where have I been, you might ask. Doesn't matter. I am grateful to you for this clear, thorough, explanation, and I have shared it on one of my business FB pages, as well as with a writers' group FB page. Yes, I subscribed to your channel. You're welcome. Keep up the great work! Thank you.
Wonderful!
HI Steve, I will be using Keep to take notes on your videos. When you say something I want to remember, I pause the video, enter my note on Keep, then start your video back up again or replay part of it so I got all the info you are sharing. Keep works great for that! All the best
Totally agree, Google Keep and Evernote are similar but very different and I use both. I like using Keep for keeping track of start-up sequences for various bits of photo gear I use, like GoPros and drones. Google Keep lets you call up the relevant details for each device faster than I can do it in Evernote. I colour code and tag all my notes for extra efficiency. Now if only Google would give us some basic text formatting tools in Keep (like bullet lists, bold and italics and highlighting) it would be perfect.
I use Evernote like a filing cabinet, where I put things that I might want to store out of sight and look up later, like swipe files and screenshots. As an Android user, I use Keep daily for more immediate details that I might have to access quickly, like grocery lists, links that I frequently share, tracking time for a couple of clients, and my daily task lists.
I love putting a grocery or packing list in Keep, I can re-use the same list over and over, just un-checking the items I need, I can quickly build a list without racking my brain trying to remember items.
Same here.
Hi Steve. I watch many of your videos and try to keep up with your Webinars.
I am now a Premium Evernote user (for over two years) and find it great.
However, on your recommendation, I took a look at Google Keep and find it a simpler and quicker way to take notes and reminders when I am "mobile". I then transfer/cut & paste what is relevant into EN later when I'm at my PC where I can format it better, tag it and put it in a relevant Notebook.
I'm "old school" (from early Windows 1989) & still like a folder/sub folder structure but now search on tags and labels.
Keep up the good work - I'm loving it. Regards, Steve (from the U.K)
Thanks for the video Steve. I use Evernote ever since I saw your demo and was reluctant to use Keep until now. Since you said you read every comment I’d like to say you’re doing a terrific job! thanks again.
thanks!
For those of us who work out in the field, Google Keep is great for keeping field notes and photos! Thanks for your great review!
My pleasure!
I'm liking Google Keep more than Evernote at the moment but after watching last week's webinar there is a new contender I am also loving, "Notion",thus bumping Evernote to 3rd place.;-} May the note-taking app battle commence!
Superb video. I was never even aware of this capability. Now I have set it up on my android phone and laptop. Thanks much for another fine presentation.
I've been an Evernote user for 15 years and I still use it - now 5002 notes and going strong! (Including notes transferred from earlier note taking apps InfoSelect and Tornado - the latter was a DOS program from the late 1980s!)
But I now use Keep as well. I like Keep's simplicity and speed, and tend to use it for quick notes that have a temporary use. I could do that with Evernote too, but over the years, Evernote has become cumbersome and slow as it added functions like a Swiss Army Knife. Like the To-do list, as if there weren't plenty of alternatives. Now I mainly just use Evernote for things I want to keep as long term reference. Or things that just work better in Evernote, like illustrated recipes.
I really hope Keep avoids the feature creep that has spoiled Evernote. And spoiled InfoSelect before it. I don't seem to have any problem using Keep in parallel with Evernote.
Wow! One of the best tutorials I've seen on RUclips. And are you actually editing your clips, no one seems to edit. Your audio, visuals and demo are right on. Great work and I will be using Google Keep thanks to you.
Another great video, Steve. But you missed one point, here. You forgot Google Docs and how it compliments and compensates for Google Keep.
I use both Evernote and Keep.
Here are 3-power user tips to create a "STRUCTURE" in Keep ::
In GOOGLE™ Keep you can actually create "TOPIC FOLDERS" (or more realistically "GROUPS") by implementing a "@" sign as the first character in a "LABEL"
One can also take an individual "NOTE" url and shorten it and paste this in another "NOTE" linking two disparate notes.
Thinking "out of the box" you can use the colour coding as a very specific designation in perhaps "time" or "activity"
All very simple to implement.
As usual thanks soo much Steve and, as we say, MAZAL TOV
POWER Tips, I am going to include them in the next video, thanks Harry!
You can have google keep on your desktop (it will not be an app, but for me it's great that i have it +the google calendar and drive on my taskbar). To do it from chrome go to the three dots at the top and right on your screen and from the section for more tools you can add it to the desktop even without browser window to look like an app.
Furthermore, I prefer keep from evernote and this is why: it's just notes!!! i don't want much. In keep you can label and color everything, share a list with others, archive stuff you did or maybe ideas to have your note page more clean and pretty much it covers all that I need. seriously you can do everything that evernote do with other google apps and some other apps as well. Also I like to have all my things as minimal as possible. I think that google offer a pretty sweet deal with all the productivity apps. It offers all in one account functionality and with great UIs.
Of course everything can be made better. So I want to ask you to make a video for a summary of the best(in your opinion) apps that we can use for different use cases in our day to day life. For example for note keeping we have keep, onenote, evernote etc. for calendars? , for emails?, cloud? etc.
Great video and great content on the channel.
Thanks Steve. I left Evernote because the power of it also came with harder to use. I'd put money that Google will "keep" upgrading this to become more.
No idea how your video found me. But this was my first intro to Google Keep. Nice job! I never heard of it before, nor you. I’ll watch for your other videos.
Thank you for this video. I will start using Google Keep. I tried Evernote a few years ago, but don't use it. I still use Info Select 8 (the current version is 11) for all my permanent notes -- passwords, accounts, taking notes on a video, etc. But Google Keep has so many other uses: reminders, shopping lists, bookmarks for "watch later" videos. I love it!
Glad it was helpful!
I haven't used Keep yet, but I will now. Thank you. Awhile back I had to choose between Evernote and OneNote. I chose OneNote and I love, love, love, it.
What a great video! Very personable, very engaging. As much as I like your personality - i'm glad you keep a solid focus on the content. I like your balance of humor and useful info.
I agree with you about Google Keep, and I came to this video because I wanted something to accompany my Facebook post.
Good job!
thank you for this side by side view! I am using EN since years, but will now start to use both. Best, Carlo
I love this man's style. He's down to earth, understandable and pleasant to listen to. I will watch for more of this websites. I've been an Evernote fan but now I'll also check out Google Keep
Hi Steve, I've just starting using Google Keep and found this video very helpful, its easy to understand and very well explained. Thank you
I agree they have separate killer use cases. I can't use Evernote at work, as my work environment is Google based, so I use Evernote for my personal business and my side business, and Keep, in conjunction with google Docs at work. It's a good combo. I can grab Keep if I need to take a note immediately, and then when I have time to create a formatted Doc from a template, I can import my notes from Google Keep. One thing I will say, if ever Google added the functionality that Apple did to its own Notes app, I think I might forgo Evernote, but I would have to see exactly how much functionality they add. Great job, Steve, as always!
I bought EverNote and found at work they block the use of it. Google Keep is perfect to keep work and home notes organized. Thanks for the review. - Parker
Frustrating, but glad you can use Keep!
Awesome Steve! I've been in love with your videos since I discovered this channel. I use Keep for fast notes and Evernote for saving things long-term. I hope you do a Dropbox 2018 review!
You are AMAZING!!! Rarely do I find myself yelping at the TV, hands in the air or downloading and trying new apps while youre still talking about them... all three of these spooky-good phenomenons happened in this 🆒️ non-action, info-packed vid - plus may I mention how fab it is to have someone give me tech tips i didnt know or knew less than i now know I needed to about them. Thank you, Steve - youre a total tech weapon and the only gun youll ever see in my place lol! Cheers - keep up the unreal content, love your TOP 5 APPS vids too - woohoo! x
I personally like Google Keep better, I to have used both. You miss out on some features but I feel it's just easier and more user friendly all around.
DHTV - Dan Where does my Google Keep sync to? Can't see it in my Google drive!!!
it syncs on your google account. so every device you have google keep on have the same notes.
Great video! I'm a OneNote user but I also love Google Keep. I use the labels as mini folder for info I want to keep up with. Awesome app.
I was a Premium Evernote user but now I use Google keep. Drive and photos. Unlimited free storage and devices. Breaking up is hard to do but you know it makes sense.
Glenn Douce did you copy your Evernote data over to Keep. I’ve been wondering about an easy way to do that.
I'm interested in doing the same and would like to know how that's working
First of all, thank you so much for your videos. I have watched a couple now and find them very high quality with lots of pertinent information. That is a rare commodity these days on RUclips. I have been using Evernote for a few years now and I love it for more permanent storage of all of my documents. I had files of papers, recipes, photos, receipts, etc. that are all now digitally stored through Evernote, reducing clutter in my office. Also, by using tags, I can search and find documents easily through EN. However, like you suggested, I see a potential application for using Google Keep for smaller work, short reminder notes, and to-do lists. I use Workflowy for that but maybe I can transition that piece over the Keep. Not sure yet. Do you know of any other potential integration advantages to Keep in working with Google Calendar (btw, love your videos on that) and/or Gmail. If there were, that could make it even more powerful....maybe I should work for Google? :)
Really appreciate the video! I used Evernote but I found it clunky and slow. I don’t like my notes stored in their proprietary format and was concerned about backup or what might happen to my daily journal that I’ve collected for years if Evernote shut down. So I switched to Simplenote which I love for it’s plain text simplicity, easy backup, powerful search and excellent cross platform syncing. Now I want to try Keep for a few features that Simplenote may not have but I’m still concerned about backup in a useable format.
Nicely presented thank you. I use a combination of Apple Notes and Wunderlist. I will be giving Google Keep a go to see if I can condense my note taking and list making skills to one app. ONE NOTE TAKING APP TO RULE THEM ALL........
I use google keep for work. And it keeps me very organized and easy to understand
Once your image is saved to your note, Google Keep will use OCR to add metadata to your note. This metadata allows you to search the text in your image. There is additional processing which is done to the image as well to classify it for search. There is also an option to parse the text out of your image explicitly. Lastly, there is a chrome app for Keep that will give you a more desktop-like experience.
I came at this from a different angle. While I've used Evernote in the past, these days I've mostly been collecting notes in simple text documents and Trello boards. It's becoming too scattered and I'm finding that shuffling the data around is a lot of overhead. I'm trying to find something very simplistic but effective, and I think Keep might be what I need. Great vid!
Been using Google Keep for a few years now and love it.
I left Evernote and went on using Keep. Still very happy. Great review by the way!
Thanks Steve. I just started about a month ago using the Google ecosystem of Keep, Drive and Tasks. I needed a way to get my GTD on a simpler scale. I was spending more time organizing my next actions than doing them! It is working great especially with the Gmail intergration. That being said I am still using my Evernote. I don't see the need to choose one over the other as voiced in some comments. We can all play nice together.
I haven’t tried Google Keep yet, but found this interesting and will give a try. I am not sure if it has now been updated or not, but I do know using the Google app you can go into the search bar and go to camera and it does convert information off of a camera and put it into a contact. I’ll have to check that out in Keep when I try using it to see if has upgraded.
Thanks Steve! Great video. I think I am going to try Google Keep. I’m pretty much google centric so this will be another tool to add in my kit!😀👍
Thank you. Never used this app, but your video encouraged me to try it.
Keep camera does parse text from photos to notes and keep notes can be very easily combined with Google docs as notes for papers and manuscripts especially useful for attribution.
I don't use Keep very often because I prefer to have a notebook hierachy as opposed to labels and tags.
Having said that I don't use Evernote anywhere near as much as I used due to their new pricing pricing structure and also since Evernote changed the fact that in the free version you can only connect 2 devices.
I have switched to Nimbus Note which I find gives you more for your money...or not, as it's free version is better than Evernote.
It would be interesting if you could have a look at Nimbus Note when you have time Steve and see what you think of it.
One final thing...I'm pleased to see that you are going to be using Webinar Jam again for Webinar Wednesday :)
Thanks John, I will have a look when I can fit it in. Yes, back to Old School webinars this week!
I used Google Keep pretty extensively, even before I used Evernote. It's very quick and handy - very useful if you need/keep lists of things or for jotting down of quick ideas (the STT function is awesome).
I prefer Pocket as a Link Aggregator/Read Later tool, though. And most recently I phased G Keep out totally, because you don't have the ability to connect notes like you can with Evernote. The main screen also gets cluttered really fast when you have a lot of content on it. Both of this problems ruled it out for research over time, as I'm the "make a file pile and pick the cherries out" type of guy when I'm on an information hunt and create Master Notes with summaries of articles/papers in Evernote, with links to the originals.
I miss the sticky notes design of G Keep, though. It's much more visceral then the Evernote.
Great breakdown on Google Keep. I didn't even know it existed til now. I use Google Calender, Gmail, etc. I have been researching what note taking app to use for goals, projects, tasks, etc. I'll give Google Keep a go. I don't need anything fancy so Keep may be better than Evernote for me.
Thanks for the demo, Steve. I was an early adapter to Evernote and prefer it for work purposes. However, I think Google keep will be a great tool for my wife and daughter.
I've shared this with my class. Thank you for such a well-done video that can lead to great discussions.
Agree completely that Keep is the best for quick reminders, short notes and shopping lists. Plus, I really like the simplicity of it (it's pretty too!). For projects, however, Evernote wins hands down.
Always Love your video trainings! You are a master at imparting useful information, integrating tools and making the whole process easy to understand.
Excellent video, Steve! Yes, there is a stand-alone Google Keep app. I use it all the time on my Window Laptop. :)
Nice job Steve! One little pet peeve of mine. About Google Keep being "free." I would love to see bloggers, RUclipsrs, etc., when they review Google products, not say they are free. Rather, I would like reviewers to remind folks that like everything in life, there is a price. In the case of Google products, the price is your personal information. If folks are fine with that, great. If not, this keeps that cost up- front and center so the customer can make the wisest long-term choices for the use of their limited resources. I think this is especially important for the education market, where the next generation of Google customers are being created as I write by eager teachers and administrators looking for the cheapest, short-term way to bring technology into the classroom. Personally, I think schools should be asking Google for much more than a couple free applications in exchange for millions and millions of future customers.
Great point, nothing in life is free I will take that to heart for future demos
Do you know a way to protect (avoid delete) a note in Keep or maybe a mode to undo a change in a a note.
I've started using Opera and switch using Google and Duck Go Duck. Opera has a side bar where you can arrange apps like Messenger and Instagram as well as Opera specific Speed Dial where you can Bookmark sites and Folders where you can cluster categories of sites. There is also Opera Pinboards that is used like Keep or Pinterest without the annoying ads. I love it so much that I am not able to go back to Chrome except for when I need to do an image search by right clicking any image to search for images possibly used in fake news. You should check out Opera, but beware, you may also get hooked.
Just had to say "hi" to a fellow Opera lover. It's definitely my browser of choice on all my Android devices and gets installed immediately on new ones.. Who else gives you built-in free VPN and ad-blocking? In terms of memory, it's also less of a resource hog than Firefox and Chromium derivatives (Chrome/Brave). And for an ultra-light browser on low-end phones and tablets there's Opera Mini (but then you don't get VPN).
Thanks - yet ANOTHER great video. Google Keep now parses the wording in images - I really enjoy GK as it’s so simple and easy to use. Also very clean to use if most notes are archived. Thanks again Steve.
6:05 -- you can also select many notes and send them to Google Docs.
I did that with all my notes labeled "contacts" and got all of them listed in one document. Sweet!
I am new to electronic notetaking and started using Evernote but am not at all proficient yet. I am wondering why you would need another app like Notability or GoodNotes vs Google Keep or Evernote?
You compare these 3 tools; Evernote, Google Keep, reference to OneNote. But I think an equal player, that I can love and hate for many the same reasons, is: Pocket.
*My* overall choice is, Keep. Because Pocket phone app just takes too much memory, when you have to side load it on a Samsung. I can work around the lack of desktop app for Keep, because I am always working it inside the browser(s).
Did you cover labels in this video..? I must have missed it.
I use the notes app on Mac. Steve, what do you use for a CRM? I've never really used one but as I'm getting more high end connections from linkedin and podcasts it's becoming quite attractive.
HI Thank you so much for this video... Hereonwards I'll start using Google Keep; however I already have loads of material on StickyNotes, Evernote and others...Could you please temme how do I save those notes on Google Drive, pair those here or transfer the material?..... Please... :)
I have certain pre-formatted standard texts that I send from Keep on the smartphone version. I market to certain lists where a cell # is available, but no email address.
I use Keep as well as Evernote. I use EasyNotes for Keep as a PC Desktop agent. Works just fine. Don't know about the security aspects however. Hope this helps someone.
After I watched your two reviews on Google Keep, I downloaded it to my laptop and Android phone. Steve, your explanations are EXCELLENT - I will look no further. Your video was well done; it answered my concerns (*) and I no longer have to search for a similar note-taking APP to use. My concerns are if it allows me to use the CLOUD so all devices can be synced, not worried about the data space. Steve, I've been researching To-Do/Time Management App, in conjunction with the use of Google Keep.
Which App would you recommend for me, so I can use Google gmail, Calender, Contact, Keep, would that be Wunderlist (most features for FREE app vs. Todoist (free version one)? To-Do Task App is mainly for my personal (and share with my family and friends). As for Wunderlist - I cannot use the Cloud and sync with my Google gmail (and Contact), right? Do I need to use the Outlook email only to sync with Wunderllist?
Other than Wunderlist or Todoist, Trello, OmniFocus, etc (these are not free for trial) but if you recommend any of them, I'm willing to check it out.
I shared your video with all of my friends. Thank you Steve!
Hi Steve thanks for this. I love Evernote but will experiment. Can’t figure out how to do the Siri dictation into Google Keep. Can you please give more guidance?
I found the information in this video very helpful. I was already aware of all these features within Google Keep, but this is presented very well. I was hoping to find a way to sort Google Keep notes in alphabetical order, but that apparently is a feature Google has refused to include in the platform.
Use this all the time. Hope they don't delete it.
Thank you for an good introduction to Google Keep
Question, why did you choose Evernote over Drive for the more permanent work? Not asking because I think you chose wrong or anything just curious.
I just watched your latest video on Evernote and said I'd watch this one next. And I think I'm going to move my notes from Evernote to Keep becaue I rather like the looks of Keep better. I don't really use a lot of the paid parts of Evernote. Thanks for these videos. I love how you really dive into using an application before reviewing it and give a good, honest review.
Just for convenience, Evernote is more contained, but each person needs to make the tools work for them. Good luck on the migration!
Thank you so much for all you provide for us on your RUclips channel I find it very informative and delightful information. I personally really love your narrative your positive attitude and find you very charming . I am starting a new business operation in the spring providing window cleaning rough cleaning house washing surface cleaning services in North Carolina, I am computer illiterate however I am not totally software literate, so I've been researching found you and what a blessing I am now in to expanding my mind and making running this business with my son easier through the use of technology thank you. Dan @ American veterans power cleaning solutions.
Thanks so much... I have been using. Evernote but will being moving to google keep
Use both - Keep is a like a pick-up truck vs Evernote is like a semi-truck. Both are great. Keep works on all my devices.
Keep is great for capturing contact info off emails & web pages.
Love the checklist for shopping with the geographical reminder feature (e.g. Costco) that pops up when I get to the store.
Off topic, but I see you're using a Behringer board to run your condenser mic through. Have you tried the Samson G Track Pro? I just got one and ditched my my setup - that was a lot like yours. Great sound quality and a lot of options as well.
@dottotech great video. I use Evernote and I think I like Google Keep better for things I would use it for. Love the simplicity and convenience of Google Keep. Always love your videos Steve.
Interesting. Was not too familiar with it. Thanks for the brief introduction.
Hi Steve, I am really glad you did this review.
I have Google Keep and OneNote but since I have been using Evernote premium for more than 6 years I can't seem to like anything else the same way I like Evernote! :-)
And I am a techie but I don't feel I have the time to learn the bells and whistles of new software yet.
I will play around again with Keep. The browser extension and tags/labels certainly help a lot. would be good to try and import some notes from Evenote into Keep!
One thing I find Keep very useful is that it is connected to Google home, so if you have one of those speakers/Assistants Keep will be a Keeper!
Let's see what happens.
Great video. I use Google keep quite often. I did not know about that great browser extension though! Thanks!
Chrome extention added, thanks Steve this is really good.
I use Evernote primarily for writing and organizing workshop notes and for collecting my answers as an administrator for a professional forum. I often use it in places where internet access isn't available. Google Keep's interface looks more like Post-It notes than lecture notes, so it may not quite meet my needs.
Steve, thankyou for the great video, I personally use both applications, however, is the a way on how to integrate both Evernote & keep to Google calendar? Meaning, how do I get my notes and reminders on either app to show on Google calendar?? I've been wanting to do this for ages and still no luck, any help with this please??
Thanks again in advance.
Seed.
I like google keep I would love it to have a password lock on certain notes to keep them private what I love about google keep is the reminders and how they show on my google calendar, this is super handy!!!
thanks very well presented but i didnt get the dictionary part on google keep on android
I personally use it everyday at work. Instead of using pen and paper, I use google keep. It's useful especially taking photos inside google keep. Then I send copy to google drive and it will convert automatically to a google doc.
I absolutely love Google keep been using this app for years
just installed Keep, I'll give it a shot.
Love your videos - thanks. I too am a long term Evernote user and I just hate so much about their pricing but the one thing they have that keeps me is the Searching in Images. With years of scanned documents you can effortlessly find receipts, proposals, reports....whatever that you scanned years ago in Evernote and as far as I know nothing else comes close...?
Great point. I have always said Search is Evernotes super power.
Roger, I agree with you...searching scanned documents is unparalleled. Don't know how Andrea above can't find things in Evernote. I always say it is a file manager that makes it impossible not to find things.
You mention having the "lightbulb" in your tool bar. How do you go about adding it to the toolbar?
Hi Steve love your channel just subscribed. For someone that has used Google Keep from it's birth I find it very useful. It's like Post It notes but on steroids. I also use One Note and did use Evernote in the early days. I use Google Keep as a quick note taking up which I then use to feed and develop larger more detailed notes in One Note. Looking forward to checking out some of you other videos. Cheers Paul from downunder in Aus.
Welcome aboard!
As always thanks again for sharing your great knowledge in your awesome reviews and tutorials. Secondly, you made me revisit Google Keeps as I kind of gave up on it but I am not seeing the add-on within Gmail so I would be interested to see how I can make it work for me. Lastly, I was able to find out how to remove all Google Goals and Events that wouldnt remove or allow you to modify the time you would want to complete your goals. unfortunatly it required a complete wipe of the calander but I copied over all the important appointments I had to a different calander so that when I perofrmed the wipe nothing important was lost. Now I just use it for new upcming appointments and keep my re-occuring appointments at differnt calander. Intrested to see how this will work for me. Thanks again!
