Google Keep update adds time and location reminders

Working hand-in-hand with Google Now, Google Keep can remind you of your tasks and errands at the right place and time with location and time reminders. You just need to click on the new “Remind me” button at the bottom of any note and select the kind of reminder you want to use. It works much like your alarm clock and can be dealt with right away or you can select to snooze a reminder.

Google’s note-taking app also has a new navigation drawer to help you separate your notes from reminders and even switch Google accounts. Adding an existing photo from your Android device is also possible with this latest update. Google Keep is up for download from the Google Play Store and Chrome Web Store or can be viewed through Google Drive.
