    All I ever wanted on my iPhone was a free, quick -integrated way to jot sketch notes between all of my devices. At last, it has come to fruition. Love it!

    It’s not Google Keep but it’s enough. I bet Google will finally make the app available for iOS. I love Google Keep.

    I don’t think it will replace Evernote yet, but it’s a little closer.
