Organize a shared Google Keep note with labels only you see

A person you share a Google Keep note with can see and edit the note. Google says only you can see the labels, colors, and pins you apply to it. Put anything the other person needs to read in the note itself.

Suppose you share a packing note with a housemate. Write “Bring the charger” in the note so they can see or edit it. You can label the note “Trips” and pin it to the top of your Keep feed to find it yourself. If your housemate needs to see “Trips,” write that in the note too.

Add a label and pin the note

On a computer, go to keep.google.com and select the note. Click “More,” then “Add label” or “Change labels.” Check the box beside an existing label, or enter a name and click “Create.” To pin the note, point to it and click “Pin note.” These are the steps in Google’s computer guide.
