If you’re looking for a really simple and straightforward app to take notes and create to-do lists, Google Keep might be one of the best options out there. And now, with the most recent update, the app just got a little bit better with the ability to pin notes.

Unlike some of the more advanced note-taking apps out there like Evernote or even Samsung’s own Note-series app, Google Keep pursues simplicity. Like most other Google apps, Keep is a really straightforward app that lets you take notes via typing or voice, create to-do lists, and store photos of receipts or important documents. You can also color-code and label your notes for convenience, and it will even let you set a location-based reminder so that your grocery list pops up when it detects that you are at the store.

Well, with the latest update, Google is bringing you the ability to pin your notes to the top so that you don’t have to scroll down. Interestingly, this feature was present in the APK teardown months ago, but it’s only now officially available for some reason. But better late than never, amirite? To pin your note, all you have to do is long press on it and tap the pin icon on top. You will see a separate section on top of the screen for all your pinned notes.

Thus far, it seems like there aren’t other significant changes with the update, but we will be sure to keep you updated. If you don’t have Google Keep and want to give it a go, click the button below!
