Do you regularly use Google Keep? If so, you should know that the Google Notes application has just been updated. We are facing a new, completely renewed version of this tool that is used to create notes and reminders, now following in the wake of other applications such as Google Calendar, Google Photos or Messages.
Actually, all Google has done is adapting the tool to the new edition of Material Design, which is known as Material Design 2, Google Material or Material Theming.But what's new? What new benefits will Google Keep users find when they open the tool?

If you have used it before, you will see that all the improvements that the tool brings are designed to improve the user experience. But how? The look is much more attractive and modern than usual. However, Google Keep is still as functional as before The blue pushpin icon that until now was in the upper corner has been lost .
Another important modification has to do with the font. The old Robif Slab for the content of the notes is struck down, to make way for the Sans-Serif Roboto. For the titles of the notes we find the Google/Product Sans. You will miss the gray background, because Google has decided to replace it with a nuclear white, surely more convenientThe notes, meanwhile, will have a simple rounded edge, but will stand out even more thanks to the background.

Regarding the iconography, we also observe changes. All profiles and spaces are bathed in Android 9 Pie and, in addition, a shortcut through the avatar has been added to the main screen. It's on the top right and is used to switch between Google accounts: This is very useful if you use different users at the same time.
Where we do see the most important changes is in the navigation box. Here Google has opted for the removal of the entire header, so that the name, email, avatar and background Google+ icon disappear. This is something that has not happened in other applications so far, but we do not rule out that it will become a trend from here.

Let's now take a look at the most important part of this application, which, of course, is the note editor. The composition system has some superficial aesthetic changes. We are talking about the white background color, which we have already mentioned, and the same font and iconography settings.
The rest of the elements (we are referring to the user interface, the reminder menus and the configuration system) have not changed. In fact, the way Google Keep works is exactly the same, so in this sense you won't have major adaptation problems.
If you want to start enjoying the new version of Google Keep, you will still have to have a little patienceBecause the update is beginning to be deployed for some users, progressively, as is usual in these cases. This makes us think that this new version will not be available yet for a few days.
Of course, if you want to try it first, you can download the version of Google Keep Notes 5.0.411.09 in APK Mirror.
