“Keep Notes” somewhat appears on the side panel add-ons visible in Gmail, Google Calendar, and Docs. The web app still refers to the service as Google Keep, while the Play Store listing has yet to be updated either. Version 5.0.371.03 of Google Keep began rolling out on Monday and it extends the name of the Android app to “Keep Notes.” This tiny rebrand is visible on the home screen icon, launcher, and Android’s App Info page in system settings. It’s not clear how new Android users are supposed to discover Keep, which is probably why Google is putting the word “Notes” in the name now, five years after launch.

Unlike the Notes app on iPhone there’s no way to figure out what Keep does without opening it and playing around. Keep is great for frustration-free notetaking, but it’s hard to discover.
You’re not going crazy: Google’s Keep is now called “Keep Notes” on your Android home screen, despite it being called “Google Keep” everywhere else.
