*_Thank you so much for sharing this. Who would have thought that this simple step make a world of difference? This is one of the reasons I leaned away from Google Keep and tried other apps. Would def consider this._*

[@mirrorreflection3479]

Such videos should be as shorts because you already have covered almost the same in the past.

[@brianfromireland]

It’s a key feature, worth repeating, totally changed how I used the program

[@jontip]

Indeed, please repeat as necessary.

[@gmansi]

​@@jontipI agree too

[@RiminiVirage]

Not sure he agrees .

[@CristinAF]

That’s great advice for when you have your own KZbin channel to manage.

[@Simpletivity]

Glad you think so!

[@FlowCreators]

Nice tip.

[@Simpletivity]

Thanks!

[@batchrocketproject4720]

I've been doing this for a while and it is nice to have a clean page. There is one down side though - if you are using the sidebar in Docs or Gmail, the keep panel only shows the home page notes and I haven't yet found an option to load tags from the side bar.

[@gmansi]

Good info

[@Simpletivity]

That is a very good point. Thanks for sharing!

[@petepaxton5109]

Something worth mentioning. I personally put all my notes in labels and then archive each note so there is a place to see all my notes at once but also have a notes section that is blank and ready to go. But once your notes are in labels and not in the notes section, they can no longer be rearranged. This is only possible with the notes you leave in the main notes section.

[@Simpletivity]

Good point. Thanks for sharing!

[@365realestategroup]

can you create sub-labels??

[@NickO-nh4di]

Hi Scott, do you know of a way to create folders AND sub folders of that level 1 folders in KEEP.?.

[@Simpletivity]

Unfortunately, Google Keep doesn't have a native feature to create folders and subfolders.

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

tHanks for the video. I had not known this existed until today. Have a great week!

[@Simpletivity]

You are most welcome. Glad you enjoyed this one!

[@christiandevos9468]

1 problem remains. You can’t add a pdf file to a Keep note. Is possible in all other note taking apps. But they don’t have OCR that Keep has in pictures (except Evernote)

[@Simpletivity]

Yes, uploading files (other than images) is still not available. Thanks for sharing.

[@CristinAF]

Are there any “select all” shortcuts for iPhone app users?

[@Simpletivity]

Sorry, but such a shortcut is not currently possible on iPhone.

[@robertschuurman]

Hi Steve, can you tell me how I get my Google Keep reminders in my Google Calendar?

[@Simpletivity]

Unfortunately, Google Keep reminders no longer automatically show up in Google Calendar. This functionality was recently removed by Google. However, there is a future integration planned: Google Keep reminders are being migrated to Google Tasks. Once migrated, you'll be able to see your Keep reminders in Tasks, which will be accessible from both Google Calendar and the Tasks app. There's no official date for when this will be complete, but it's expected to happen within the next year.

[@robertschuurman]

@@Simpletivity Thx Scott

[@365realestategroup]

Can you create sub-labels??

[@Simpletivity]

No, Google Keep currently doesn't support creating sub-labels or nested labels within labels. This means you can't organize your notes in a hierarchical structure. However, there are a few workarounds you can try to achieve a similar effect: Use Label Names Creatively: You can include a hierarchy within the label names themselves. For example, instead of a label named "Work," you could have labels named "Work - Client Meetings" or "Work - Project Ideas." Multiple Labels: Google Keep allows adding multiple labels to a single note. This lets you categorize notes across different categories. Color Coding: Utilize the color-coding feature in Keep to visually distinguish notes belonging to a specific category, even if they share the same label name.

[@SamTeeWe]

Wouldn't just pinning the notes achieve the same effect?

[@Simpletivity]

Pinning a note will Unarchive it automatically. But if you unpin that note, it will remain unarchived. Is that what you mean?
