Keep It overview

Keep It is for writing notes, saving web links, storing documents, and finding them again. Available on Mac, and as a separate app for iPhone and iPad, changes are automatically made available to all your devices with iCloud. Keep It is the destination for all those things you want to put somewhere, confident you will find them again later.

Features
  • Create, edit, view and save:
    • Notes with styles, checklists and attachments that look good and read well on all your devices
    • Web links with live previews, or saved as PDFs for offline viewing
    • Rich and plain text files, and Markdown documents
    • Add any other kind of file, and see previews for most images, documents, web pages, and more
    • See summaries and thumbnails in the list for most files
    • Use the Recents list to see things you’ve added or viewed lately
    • Share items with iCloud
  • Organize:
    • Folders let you organise things hierarchically - select a folder to see everything it and its subfolders contain
    • Use bundles to gather items into one place - items can be in more than one bundle at a time
    • Use labels to color-code items for quick visual recognition
    • Add searchable tags and comments
    • Make items favorites and drag lists to the Favorites Bar for quick access
  • Search and Filter:
    • Search everything in Keep It: names, tags, file contents, dates, kinds and more
    • Choose suggestions as you search to create complex searches with ease
    • Use keywords and natural language for dates while searching
    • Save searches for later reuse
    • Use the Tag Filter to see all items with a tag and any other relevant tags; choose another tag to drill down further
  • Use Keep It with other apps:
    • Compact Mode reduces the app to a single column, ideal for using alongside other apps
    • Drag pretty much anything to Keep It
    • Copy clickable links to items in Keep It
    • Share extension can add links, text, images and other files, and append text to notes from within other apps
    • Save files to Keep It’s folders to automatically add them to the library
    • Use a bookmarklet to add links from web browsers that don’t use Share extensions

What’s new in version 2.4.9

  • Fixed issues restoring the correct window size when toggling compact mode or enabling and disabling Finder integration.
  • Fixed issues rearranging pages in the PDF navigator.

There should be an easier way than using Automator to choose what folder you want your files to be saved to.

I am trialling this after the latest disastrous update to Evernote. So far it seems good. My main gripe though is that the web clipper is poor and I can find no way to add it to chrome or Vivaldi. The instructions for adding a bookmarklet don't work. If the clipper worked better I'd be tempted to go with it.

My second rating is for those who are still on the fence. KeepIt is a brilliant application for organising your notes, of all kinds. It is fast, does not stall, pleasant outline, super effective SEARCH...etc.

It's frustrating that I download the app, with the intent and hope to buy it. And every single time I launch the app it crashes. Again and again and again. How am I expected to make a judgment of an app I can't even trial run?
