All this attention being paid to Keep is making me nervous. It's the only Google product besides Gmail that I think is actually good nowadays and there's a very good possibility that it's because it hadn't been significantly updated in a decade.

It's really astonishing, how bad Google actually is at innovation or even basic product management.
Well, they move fast and break things well...
...and they never fix what they broke...they'll just add more broken stuff on top of broken stuff
I agree, it'll probably be dead soon now that they're messing with it again.
People should degooglify before it's too late.
What? It just got updated with text formatting options this year.
For a couple more years, until they kill off keep, LMAO.
Hey Glooglel
Came here to read that
I already use keep as my shopping list on a note I share with my husband. Didn't even know there was a separate Google shopping list, seems unnecessary.
Telling Google assistant to add items to your shopping list and them being added to a keep note titled "shopping list" was the original functionality in Google keep. I used this feature all the time which is great for someone like me who has ADD. Then without warning, Google decided to change the functionality so that it added the items to Google Express instead. It was a small change that caused a lot of inconvenience and headaches for me. There was a time I would have really cared about this change but considering the inconsistency of Google's products, I really can't get invested in them anymore. I try to degoogle my life as much as possible these days.
I've only had the assistant for a few years since moving into this house, but we selected Google Keep and still use it on a daily basis shared between my SO and I.
Narrator : Then they nuked Google Keep after 2 years.
🎵Like a train in the night
Maybe somewhere in all this stuffing about with Keep they can add the ability to sort lists.
Wtf, in Canada we don't have the google express or whatever they switched to (I think). Instead lists and notes were stored within assistant using a terrible interface. So I switched to anylist and was quite happy with them. They've since killed integration with anylist to keep(again?). I'm sticking with anylist and have just decided to stop using assistant. There's a nice widget I can throw on my home screen. Google seems intent on killing itself slowly and incompetently.
They moved the shopping list back to Keep quite a few years ago
Great, it will now have a fraction of the features AnyList had, before Google killed the integration for no good reason
Yeah, Any list was great. As much as I love Keep, it's just okay for shopping lists.
