Google hasn't forgotten about Keep's lock screen notes (yet)
Android Authority • • technology
Key Points:
- Google Keep is testing a new lock screen note-taking feature, with hidden settings now accessible in the latest app version, though the functionality is not yet operational.
- This feature was initially hinted at during Android 14 development but never officially launched; recent code updates suggest Google is revisiting the idea.
- The lock screen notes feature would allow users to quickly capture thoughts without unlocking their phone, with options to keep notes active for varying durations.
- While the feature is visible in developer settings and beta versions, Google has not announced a public release timeline, and the feature could still be delayed or canceled.
- Previous plans included stylus integration for note-taking shortcuts, but this functionality is not present in the current iteration of the feature.
