The biggest problem with Keep, for me, is that searching your notes is basically worthless. For example, I have a note that is a list of books i want to read. It’s hundreds of entries long. If I enter a search term (for an app from the company that made its name on SEARCH!), Keep will tell me it’s in a note, but no way to actually go to the specific part of the note where it is. In essence, it tells me here is a haystack, you find your needle in it. Good luck. Good grief is more like it.

Notion has all of what you want.
It’s also the best note taking app by far, you can even create websites with it.
only competition is probably bear, but it’s Apple only

What I really want, is a tree of thoughts. Google Keep and similar is completely unusable for me. I might as well use notes from Evolution, which gives pretty much the same.

I may have an idea for a project, so I make a list of notes for ideas about project. But each idea may have pros and cons, so I want to add a list of notes to each idea. But then I learn new things that may be important, so I want to add those as yet another sublist.

If there’s nothing like this around, then I’ll make one, but I would prefer using an existing one, not just because I don’t want to make one, but because I would rather contribute to something that exists than making yet another note app.

If someone has suggestions, I would very much appreciate tips.

Is this sponsored by Google ?

1. You know the list is bad when Google keep tops it. I mean, Google keep isn’t flexible and is mentioned before notion and Evernote.

2. Microsoft onenote, is a free app, with much more features and organisations and doesn’t put any hidden data limits like evernote and there are 7 complex in branch system and it hasn’t even been mentioned. Don’t get me wrong, I hate microsoft, but their Onenote for Windows 10 definitely deserves top 5 in the list.

You did add few apps which I have never heard of. Will check them out. Thanks for the article.
