5 Ways to Get More Out of Google Keep (App Tips & Tricks) 

Watch next: 3 Easy Tips for More Powerful Checklists in Google Keep - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MbSL0n5UvMs.html

Thanks for the great video. All five tips are brand new to me. The way I use Google Keep is for documenting student learning. I have made a folder for each student. The way it works is first I take a picture of the students work. Next I open Google Keep on my iPad. I click the note. Then I click the + at the bottom of the note and add the picture. I put a # with the students name and it automatically goes to the students folder. The best feature is that you can hash tag as many students as you want for a single photo. Then in the notes section I make my comments or feedback or marks. This has definitely lightened the load of papers that I bring home from school to mark.

OMG the location based reminder is next level stuff !!! Plus the sharing of lists. Totally going to setup a shopping list with my mum right now !

Thank you so much for showing more about Google Keep. Those tips and tricks are very useful. I love using this cool app

More great tips, Scott. I like to mark all of my notes as archived so that only new notes created show up in the "Notes" section of Keep. Any note I want to be "Active" I apply a reminder, (but still archive it). On the web I work from the Reminders section. On Android, I use the widget with the Reminders showing - reminder notes sort by due date. Most of my notes are setup with repeating reminders so they cycle back thru the sort order and when I'm completely done with the entire note, i delete the reminder. I treat the Notes section similar to an Inbox. This is where new notes start, and I regularly process, label, applying reminders if necessary, then archiving (or delete). Some examples are note lists for work projects, home projects, events, travel, workouts, etc. I choose to color my notes and add pictures based on the note only, there is no ryhme or reason for how I color them. Keep up the tips and videos, I enjoy them.

I love adding Labels, so that I can access those notes within a particular subject. For example, I have a kid in her 2nd year of college and one in her senior year of high school. I have a label called "College Money" for all of their FAFSA, Scholarship window opening and deadlines. I may place a list for each kid to check off as they go along for things that they need to handle, such as getting their letters of rec and community service hours inputted into their transcripts, and so on.

Great tips Scott...thanks man...have a lovely Sunday...cheers!

Thanks Scott for these useful tips, especially about voice recording on the mobile version + location in a reminder

Hi Scott, this video is concise and to-the-point. Great narration and an excellent way to put things on this wonderful app.

Thanks again Google for creating another FREE app so we can organize our life. Nice video, the voice recorder is great as it saves so much time on the job site!

Thank you for a very useful video. I was contemplating a few solutions to organising tasks and some were quite expensive. This has saved me some money and is very suited to my needs. Thanks again!

very useful/helpful teaching by Scott. Scott speaks clearly, explains patiently so even I can understand. This is a very helpful tutorial for me.

Great video! Thank you for this. God bless you, brother.

I really liked the idea and use of archiving your notes. I also liked linking your notes to calendar events as well.

Only know 2 of the 5, thanks for the other 3 tips. excellence presentation!

First time learning about Google Keep, love the voice memo option! Thank you!

I love the voice recording part!

Thanks! Never knew all these other features hahaha. Very useful info. Thousand likes

Dipping my toe in the Google Keep pool. Mind blown 💥. Just downloaded the app on my android 📱and will be coupling with the desktop 💻 version. When was this launched? 🤔It is amazing to maintain one's sanity🙌🤪. Thank you for the tips. Can't wait to try the features that you shared. Cheers!

This is really help for a person who first start to use this tool. Good voice over !

Great video. I use Keep for my shopping list also. I usually shop the same two stores every week. The location reminder is great but has one drawback. You can only specify one place. So, in my case, to be reminded at both stores I would need a separate list for each store.

Great tips.... thank you very much.

great job man, right to the point and FUN!

Excellent, loved the video so straight forward and useful !

I love Keep. Sometimes I type in some silly little reminders. A few times I had some dreams with the words all twisted into weird sentences. I had to write it out- and the check boxes for grocery lists or trips.

Few things. I use it as 'pocket' type thing to where I'll share articles for later. Also, ill use it to share screenshots to keep, then use the handwriting feature to do whatever I'm doing the screenshot. So this is 2 ways you can save yourself from downloading other apps and do them right in keep. And thanks for the video sir.

Great video Sir. It is extremely helpful and I'm going to start using it today. Many thanks.

Great video. Thanks 👌👌 It was very helpful.

Thanks for this video. Glad I found you

Hi, very great videos (I learned a lot thanks !). The voice recognition is awesome when I do it in french (I'm french) ; meanwhile when done in english this is far from getting a decent result (I work in a international context for years and thought my englih was decent). Any idea to bypass this difficulty ?

Hi Scott!! I have actually discovered you today... and I really love your videos, not only for the organization tips and tricks (that's was what I was looking for), but for something even better!! Are you a teacher or something??? I mean, your pronounciation is SOOO clear!!! I'm always getting frustrated at movies, series and even radio announcers or tv journalists... because even as I attended at an English school, I'm never able to understand the whole thing!!! And the best thing is that you talk about topics I'm interested in. Never stop being so clear and I chanllenge you to teach us (all Spanish speakers) new vocabulary, even like street or modern slang!! XD By the way, do you have any video comparing or explaining how to use together Google Keep & Google Tasks? I could'n find one! Best regards!!!!! :-)

Great tips! Thanks!

Hey Scott. Thanks for the ideas. I am having a hard time getting my reminders to ring and alarm or show up as a reminder. What do I do? (I set the alarm and then nothing happens. I went into settings and all of my notifications are on for this app?

Thank so much!

Great tips for Google Keep! Personally I love the voice to text note taking feature.

Very much like your presentation and a big user who will keep .

Thank you for sharing!

How much should i thank You like wish to thank you again and again as i implement ur shown tips in video and get benefits :) Thank You!

3:25 Is it possible to define manually how near you have to be to get the reminder?

Fantastic video . how to highlight or Bold or colour change a word in a sentence?

I am new hear and I would like to know if Goigle Keeper should best be used as a note taker or a to-do list, I mean, it would be a good replacement for Evernote or Todoist for example, taking into account someone like me who, as retired, do not have much stuff to take care about.

Also I tag each one of my notes and color them. You can search by tags

Thanks for the great video but I would like to know how Google Keep can be integrated with Google Calendar meaning how can I get my images to be shown in the calendar mobile app. ??? Reminders appear to be no problem. 👍👍 Great video keep up the good work and thank you. I'm a new subscriber.

Very helpful thanks, may I sake what do you recommend to do to be able to see if the person I sent him my email did he read it ?when he did, or still unread.

Excellent post. Thank you !!

Very helpful..... thanks.

Great tips, thank you.

Brilliant content as always. What screen capture software do you use please?

Location feature is a wow. Thanks

Thank you Scott, very good tips! I am a GTD-user and I base my list & projects in Google Sheets -- is there any way for me to integrate my notes in Google Keep in one of my lists (for example, for my Notes to integrate directly into my Inbox sheet in Google sheets?) Would be great if you have some suggestions. Thank you!

At 6:00 there is mentioned an "annotation button", the pen icon. My version of Keep doesn't have this. Mobile Android version has it, but not the desktop version. ?? Great, informative, professional videos btw!

Great video

I love KEEP and you taught me new tricks. Thank you. I know how to add an image from Google Photos from mobile, but from desktop it directs me to my desktop files...Any thoughts on how do I get to Google Photos images? Thx again.

Game changing!

Is there a way to annotate images with typed text? It doesn't look like it in the app itself but maybe there is a chrome extension out there. Any ideas?

Good video! Do you know if its possible to use a map to set location reminders? Rather than addresses or place names. What about using the current location? Ie. "remind me the next time I'm around here" Cheers!

Awesome!

Great presentation

2:25 adding location based reminder (ex. safeway, TJs, target, bestbuy) will pop item when device is near location. 7:25 mobile voice recorded notes transcribed to txt. would be nice to see a demo of how to record and send it to keep.

I hope google adds a highlight when you search a note vs. having to search the entire note.

can you lock you notes or privatize them in another way??

Color coding & labels/tags makes for easy searching

Google Keep quits synching between Android and Windows if I haven't opened the app in Windows for awhile. Apparently it won't synch items that haven't been synched within a certain period of time.

Nice nifty all-in-one tool that keeps being improved. There are a few things I dislike about Keep. One - the voice recorder / memo / transcriber stops the record too fast - it cuts me in the middle of my sentence if I am speaking too slow. I am wondering if there is a way to fix that.

How can I group some existing images on Google Keep? Google Keep grouped images when I upload them together but I want to group new images with existing images on Google Keep..

thanks

I use google keep for 1. keeping locations (copy and paste address from google maps) 2. typing text in pc and then copying text from google keep to phone message I can't remember other useful things

Mine keeps freezing/getting-hung-up (on my Chromebook only). I tried moving most Notes to Archive, no luck. Any suggestions?

I have 1000s of notes. Is there any way to do complex searches with frequency of finds where notes with the most matches come up first? I have trouble finding things.

É possível usar o método GTD no Google keep?

There is a way to add a MP3 and transcript this audio for listening and read at same time?

Sharing and GDPR? Are there GDPR-appropriate restrictions on group sharing?

Location based reminders are fine...WHEN they actually work. I'm on Android Nougat and I always get my reminder LOOOONG after I've drive by the location I entered. Sometimes as long as 30 MINUTES after. So for me it hasn't been helpful. Probably just my crappy phone. OTOH, I love everything else about Keep and it's now my ONLY notes app. Deleted Evernote (never could be efficient with it). OneNote was my go-to 6before I found Keep. Liked it, but again...more complex than I need. OneNote is now also gone. Didn't know about the voice stuff. Gonna definitely be using that!

Currently, my 12 employees send me their pay sheets for payroll as an attachment in an email. Would it be better for them to use a shared drive? Should I create a separate shared drive for each staff with the template of the pay sheet for them to fill out each pay? Would they just make a copy and fill out in their shared drive. Attempting to streamline our system. Thank you for all of your tips and tricks. I enjoy your videos! So helpful!

I left Google keep for OneNote, before that I used evernote. I find OneNote very powerful and does a lot that Google keep also does. My big problem with OneNote is that it is such a large app it takes up way to much storage on my mobile device. Now I don't have a tool to quick add notes. I removed Onenote on my mobile device. I think I will install Google keep based on your review. Do you have a tip how to integrate Google Keep with OneNote?

I am trying to integrate Keep with Google Assistant so when I ask Google to take a note and put it in keep instead of the default. I cannot seem to figure out how to do this

Currently my fav

Hey Scott....need help...I want notes to be displayed in 1 or 2 lines only....and not all lines. How can I do it? I hate viewing a list showing me the entire content of all notes....

how to sync google keep with gmail instantly ? For ex. if i want to copy text note/message in google keep which i just wrote in gmail ?

Can I change the reminder ringtone?

How would I copy and paste my notes into Instagram or a Facebook post?

Do we have to download this app on our phone ?

Cool

G-Keep keeps getting hung up, like it has to stop to load all the notes or just re-page (lot of RU-vid links); move most Notes to Archive, still hangs up to the point of being unusable. Works ok on Windows machines and cell phones, but Chromebook is almost unusable, it hangs up so badly.

i wish i could use it as a journal as well. but it doesn't provide the most important feature i require. automatic time & date add.

Too bad this is only available for iOS devices. I am always looking for better ways to capture and organize ideas, links, quotations, screenshots, reminders, thoughts, to-dos, etc. on my Mac.

I had several notes that I saved and they all completely went away today! I am devastated as I had so much in those notes. Is there a way to retrieve everything?

When I search in the phone for a "word", the results don't include Google Keep....any suggestions?

6:53 Your annotations disappeared on the image. Google bug??

I transfer quickmemo+ files as pdf files over to my moto g6. Now how do i get google notes to read them

I am always keeping proof of purchase of items like tv, phone etc etc. Because all shops are tricky , if we keep their silky receipts in a drawer for more than 28 days, it may fade. That's why them are purposely doing like that. I am always taking a picture of all important receipts and keep it in Google Keep.

How do one add content from Google Drive to Keep?

I am very bad with papers, like if someone gives me a business card or wants to share with me a recipe, for example, I know it would be lost in a stack of papers or somewhere else out of sight (... and out of mind...), Also, I prefer to save paper in favor of trees, environment, ecology, etc. So... what I do is to take a picture of that paper, and immediately click share/open in/send or copy to G Keep. When it opens, my pic is therer attached. I only add a title and brief note and pin it to work in that note later (add to contacts, or save in OneNote, label it and add category color IF I will leave it there for quick access, Also, if I’m in a store, for example and I see a product to compare or look up later, I do the same of taking a picture to save there with title, pin and note + reminder. When you delete a picture from your gallery or folder, it stays in G Keep. I have also taken quick notes there to review later. In summary, I am realizing now that I am using G Keep as a drop box to manage later all what I add there either to keep there sorted for quick reference, or to work with them to take actions (research, move, share, colaborate in G Maps, etc).

Is it possible to hide notes in Google keep?

i am trying of copy text from my phone memos on google notes but its not working...why?...help somebody...

Image annotation does not work in firefox

I use Google Keep on my android extensively but never on my Google Chrome on my desktop. I've always had issues with the syncing between my android device (OPPO f1) and my gmail account/google chrome desktop so have rarely use it. Today I tried to sync the Keep on my phone to my desktop browser and its wiped all the notes on my android device that were made prior to my last sync (over a year ago). They're not in the trash and they haven't been archived. They're nowhere to be found on either device. Can anyone tell me whats happened and whether its possible to retrieve my lost notes? Is this a glitch? Am I missing something?

Gret+T!

Can we put a list in alphabetical order?
