Google Keep allows you to keep sticky notes to remind you of all kinds of things. I use it a lot for anything I want to remember later. Since it is a Google tool you can access it from ANY device. Go to keep.google.com or install the app on your phone.
Make a New Note
Go to keep.new or note.new and quickly create a Google Keep note. But once you’re in Google Keep simply press the letter C to compose a new note.
Pin the Note
You can pin your notes to the top of Google Keep by pressing the F key.

Archive the Note
Done with your note for now? Archive it. Press the E key.
Delete the Note
Done with the note totally? Use the # key (Shift 3) to delete the note. Tip, this is the same keyboard shortcut for Google Drive to delete a file.
Select the Note
Press L to seLect the note.
Toggle Grid View
My favorite way to list notes is in Grid view, but you may just want a list of your notes. Try Control G (Command G on a Mac) to see it in a list.
Indent the List Items
I just recently realized you can indent the checkboxes. Now I am using it all the time. Use Control Bracket to indent (or un indent) the list item. (Command ] on a Mac)
