Thank You
This release includes several features shaped directly by thoughtful feedback from the reddit Google Keep community. Thank you to everyone who took the time to try Kept, share what they miss, and suggest ways it could become more useful without losing the simple, low-friction feel that makes Keep-style notes work so well.
