Ratings and reviews

I have been using Google Keep nearly every day since 2013. The amount of notes, web clippings, lists, pictures, ideas etc. I have stored here is in the thousands. I would be lost without it. One feature would be awesome is a smart notebook, like Moleskine offers, that would allow users to write in it and have the note automatically captured in the app. I'm very curious how Gemini will be integrated into the app. On an unrelated note, it would be great if Google brought back Google+.

I've had this app on my phone for a few years now, it seems like it would be real intuitive to use, but it's not for me anyway. Something as simple as creating a list or a note, was very frustrating also could not get it to work consistently with Google Assistant, it does have potential, but for now, the payout of the learning curve, was not worth any reward of any results I got

Honestly I'd rather use reminders & notes on my iPhone. I can't do put my notes into folders on this app. It's just all there for me to see at one time. Way too overwhelming for me. If I make a shopping list on my iPhone it can automatically sort the items for me which is super helpful as I go through the store. This is just like a giant scratch pad with no organization. I just switched from Apple and was hoping that the native Google apps would be sufficient but they aren't. Also word count????
