First look: Google Keep will let you jot notes from the lock screen on Android tablets
You'll soon be able to launch Google Keep right from the lock screen on your Android tablet, making it even easier to quickly jot down notes.
That's cool. Until next year when Google keep is killed and Google play notes is the new one, and it won't support this feature.
Seems like an actual clever idea — can’t see or edit existing notes without unlocking. Just create new notes.
I use this on my Galaxy Tab and S23U all the time. It's really handy to be able to draw a diagram or take down a quick name or number.
Yeah I use it as a "sticky" when I don't have pen/paper. S24U
Cuz that's private right? 🤔
Please tell me that at least someone sees the security risk here...
It's fine until you leave your tablet out while you step away and come back and your keep has 500 new notes that are just drawings of dicks.
Why won't they implement this on phones too?
@cloudless I mean, Google Keep is really useful and non-cluttered for taking Uni notes. /s
Security?
This should not be a thing in the first place.
What, you want a wide open device that anyone can pick up and read your private notes/contacts you jotted down?
Please..
You can't read other notes. Only create blank notes. Samsung has had this for millennia.
Hmmm clearly youre the first person to think of that and it was not ever considered at any point in the design or development cycle.
I wonder if theres any prior art to the android approach to lockscreen privacy... perhaps a "Camera" feature?
