Google Keep may get updates soon: These are the two most interesting changes

Google Keep, the simple yet powerful note-taking app, may be about to receive a fresh coat of paint in its upcoming versions. According to an APK teardown presented by Android Authority, two major changes stand out: a redesigned toolbar and a new way of displaying image attachments. While these updates aren’t available yet, they could arrive in a future release.

A cleaner, more dynamic toolbar is coming

One of the main visual changes spotted is a revamped toolbar with larger, more prominent icons for key actions like attaching files, formatting text, and changing the background color. The icons appear with rounded backgrounds that adapt to the device’s theme, bringing a more modern and consistent look. Subheading formats such as H1 and H2 will also become slightly smaller, likely to improve overall readability.

Image attachments may finally look better

In its current version, when a user adds an image to a note, it spans the entire width of the screen, often feeling visually intrusive. The previewed design changes that by introducing margins on both sides of the image, giving it rounded corners and a cleaner, more elegant appearance. This subtle tweak could significantly improve the app’s visual balance, especially for users who frequently include photos in their notes.

These updates follow Google Keep’s recent enhancements like floating action buttons and a shortcut for audio notes. While the redesign isn’t live yet, all signs suggest Google is preparing a more refined and user-friendly experience for its loyal note-takers.
