Review Summary

The Category Tabs for Google Keep™ extension is praised for enhancing note organization using customizable color categories, improving navigation and workflow for many users. However, it runs a separate categorization system independent of native Google Keep labels, causing some confusion. Technical glitches in note creation and category interaction, lack of multi-account sync, and limited mobile compatibility are common concerns. Despite these drawbacks, users find the extension significantly improves their productivity and wish for additional features and bug fixes to make it even more effective.

Pros

  • Enhances organization by allowing users to categorize Google Keep notes by color and custom category names.
  • Improves navigation and usability by providing an alternative way to filter and sort notes beyond default labels.
  • Highly useful and appreciated by daily users for effectively managing notes with color-coded categories.
  • Allows personal customization such as arranging categories and disabling unused colors, leading to better workflow integration.
  • Provides quick visual cues that aid in scanning and prioritizing notes efficiently.

Cons

  • Lacks integration with Google Keep's native labels and colors, leading to a separate, parallel categorization system that may confuse users.
  • Some users experience technical issues, such as input field disappearing in certain categories or errors when creating new notes within colored labels.
  • No syncing of categories across different Google accounts or devices, causing inconvenience for users with multiple accounts or mobile device access.
  • Limited functionality on mobile devices since the extension works only in Chromium browsers and does not reflect color categories on mobile apps.
  • Requests for enhancements such as ability to save/load categories, mass-assign notes, sync with calendar, and more intuitive UI are unmet.
