Google Keep is fast, free and everywhere Google is. Nabuya starts from the same idea, quick capture, and adds the part Keep leaves to you: making sense of it and finding it again.
The short answer
| Google Keep | Nabuya | |
|---|---|---|
| Putting things in | Notes and lists; you add labels and colours | You say, type or share it. No labels to keep up |
| Finding things | Search for words, labels and colours | Ask in your own words, from a vague detail |
| What it understood | Nothing to check; it's your text | A title, a summary and a time for each thing, all fixable |
| Reminders | You set the time on a note | Say "every Monday at 9" and it sets the reminder |
| Sharing | Share a note with collaborators | Shared spaces for family and friends, by invite link |
| Where it runs | Android, iPhone, the web | iPhone and Android |
Choose Google Keep if
- You want notes on the web and on a computer, not only on your phone.
- You like sorting with labels and colours.
- You remember the words you used, so word search is enough.
Choose Nabuya if
- You stopped labelling a long time ago and now nothing is findable.
- You remember the feeling of the thing, not its words.
- You want each thing to look like what it is: a link as a preview, a task as a checklist, a reminder on its day.
