Google Keep for Web Gets Long-Awaited Text Formatting Tools
Google is rolling out a long-anticipated update to its web-based note-taking platform, Google Keep, finally bringing text formatting features like bold, italics, and underline to desktop users. These tools were first introduced on Android nearly two years ago, and are now becoming available for Google Workspace, Workspace Individual, and personal account users. The new formatting options are tucked under an underlined 'A' button, located in the lower left corner of the updated Keep text editor. Clicking this icon reveals a toolbar allowing users to style their text or apply H1 and H2 headers—a simple but effective way to bring more structure and readability to notes. For those using Google Keep across platforms, this update should make formatting consistent between web and Android, eliminating the need to re-edit content after syncing. Although the feature has started rolling out, Google notes it may take a few weeks before it becomes visible to everyone. Still, the change is a welcome boost to Keep's usability on the web—something users have been requesting for years.

Google Keep brings text formatting to the web
Google Keep has finally expanded the text formatting options to its web app, almost two years after making them available for Android users. The update for Google's web-based note-taking service is now rolling out to Google Workspace, Workspace Individual, and personal Google account users and provides new options for customizing text and heading styles. It may take a few weeks for the text formatting options to appear for everyone. The new formatting options are housed in the underlined 'A' button found in the bottom left-hand corner of the updated Keep text editor. Clicking this will open a new toolbar that allows users to underline, bold, italicize, and remove formatting, alongside converting regular text into H1 or H2 headers. The changes should help Google Keep users on the web to add more structure to their notes, making it easier to lay out and find specific information. And hopefully, all that formatting will now sync between the web and Android versions to avoid having to re-edit things.
