It's a very user-friendly application. > > **Cons**: My least favorite thing about the software is that it's not Microsoft OneNote, therefore it doesn't integrate with OneDrive. Other than that simple problem, it's an excellent app. > > I have used Google Keep along with the rest of Google's suite of programs for several years now, and have always been impressed with their applications. I just happen to love Microsoft OneNote more, and tend to favor that application for note curation. ----- ### "Google Keep is one of my all time favorite apps\!" — 5.0/5 > **Erika** | *17 October 2025* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Keep is my "go-to" for quick notes, brainstorming, random things I want to remember to check on, grocery lists, basically anything "informal" that I need to jot down, especially on the go. It's great for my own task management too, I really like the features it has that allow me to paste pictures, color code my notes, and that it's quick and easy to navigate and find the specific note I want to add to. > > **Cons**: The only "con" is that I wish I could change the font within specific notes. It's nice that I can change the background and add pictures so I am able to organize that way, but the additional customization to change font size and color would definitely be a major improvement for me\! > > I originally opened Google Keep because I saw it in my Google apps and didn't know what it was, so I clicked into it just out of curiosity. So glad I did\!\! It's now one of my most utilized apps and took over to replace how I used to use the Notes app on my iPhone. I like that I can access Keep from anywhere I log into my Google account. For me it's easier to organize and manage my various lists and notes. I have wild ADHD so having Keep has been extremely helpful. I need to write down everything and anything that I want or need to remember because if I don't it's immediately forgotten like it never existed. I'm able to make notes, or save pictures, write myself things I need to go back to, I also use it just as a brain dump/journal when I need to just organize my thoughts. Keep is awesome and I highly recommend, plus it's free with a Google Account so definitely a HUGE value for zero money since it doesn't cost me anything\! ----- ### "A Keeper" — 5.0/5 > **Julie** | *14 July 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Keep is an absolute life saver\! You can make to-do lists, save links, add images, and even remind yourself of emails. The function and features are a dream for anyone who likes to stay organized\! You can even get your to-do lists right on your phone to never forget a thing. > > **Cons**: My only real complaint is that I wish it was easier to customize the headers, fonts, and even colors. As someone who like their to-do list to not just be functional but also look pretty I wish this was a little easier with Google Keep. ----- ### "Keep on Keepin' On\!" — 5.0/5 > **Claire** | *7 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that I can save various types of information in Google Keep. It's convenient because I can use it on multiple devices, and it all syncs together. > > **Cons**: It is difficult to find something that I do not like about Google Keep. It is helpful in keeping me organized, and has features that I like. I would say it's not the flashiest or fanciest app, but it does the basics. > > Keep has helped me to store and organize links, reminders, photos, and lots of other information over the years. ----- ### "Google Keep is very helpful in everyday life." — 5.0/5 > **Kelly** | *2 May 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I started using Google Keep on my phone. I keep notes in it and I pin documents that I need at the top. I make lots of lists using this app as well. And, I like that it is a shared document between my phone and computer. > > **Cons**: I am not sure of the difference between archive and trash. Also, I would like to figure out how to hide some notes but categorize them if needed later. > > I love that Google Keep helps me stay organized with notes. I love the color coding and list feature that you can check off. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/318473/google-keep?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/318473/google-keep) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
