Google’s excellent and neglected note-taking app is getting some much-needed formatting options and overall love. Here’s hoping it’s not the last time.

    I need to use Keep to share simple synced notes with my partner. I’ve not yet been able to find an app with feature parity. Does anyone know a good app for sharing lists?

      It’s the only way I’ve found to have a shared shopping list we can also use via Google nest devices too - any other options?

        Yep we use Home Minis around the house for adding to the shopping list and I have Tasker on my phone open the list when it detects a supermarket WI-FI nearby.

        Thing is I’ve used all sorts of open source apps, I have Pi’s around the house running some stuff, but Keep just works with minimal interference from me.

        They are nice, I use Logseq and Anytype which are very similar. They are a bit overkill for sharing a meal planner and a shopping list though.

          Meal planner and shopping lists are a gateway drug. Next thing you know you’re 30 topics deep with embedded webpages and items in a database, planning world domination one step at a time.

          In all seriousness, I started using notion because I have ADHD and needed something to keep me on track then I really over did it and have lists and planning set up for most of my daily life and I share it all with my GF who uses it for all of her notes.

        Sorry should have been clear, I’m trying to not use Google products. Tired of their monopoly.

      Zoho Notes has feature parity for everything I’ve seen, including letting you add collaborators to a notebook or note / list.

      “D Notes” is very similar to Google keep but better in every aspect except that you need pro for cloud sync (with Google you pay with your data instead)

        I’ve not managed to figure out note sharing with Nextcloud Notes, and it seemed you needed to understand Markdown to get the best of it last time I used it.
