Ratings and reviews

I like the app a lot and have used it for years. Recently however the search function appears to be broken. When trying to search for key words, the app will not show results correctly. I have tested this on various notes and the success/failure rate appears to be random. Sometimes it can't find words in the title and sometimes it can't find words in the body of the note. Other times, it finds key words correctly in either title or body. If this is fixed, I'd give the app a solid 4/5 stars.

I've been using Keep for years and it was always perfect. However, I am not enjoying the new feature that requires you to select a note type when pressing the 'add' button. Text notes are going to be the note type the majority of the time so this feels like an unnecessary extra step. Please consider rolling it back to the previous behavior, or allow the user to select in their settings to have this feature enabled or disabled. Also, your email for support is no longer correct.

I have been using Keep for a long time and always loved the simplistic ability to create a note with one tap. This has changed and while I can see they attempted to make it easier to make notes with other content it has added extra step into the standard note creation process. I would love if you could revert this functionality in the settings but it appears you can't. Hopefully this gets fixed in the future!
