How to move your Google Keep notes to Washi Notes

Google Keep has no export button of its own. Google Takeout makes a .zip of your Keep notes, and Washi Notes can read that file.

1. Export from Google Keep

  1. Go to takeout.google.com and sign in.
  2. Click Deselect all, then tick Keep.
  3. Click Next step, leave it as a one-time .zip export, and click Create export.
  4. Google emails you a link when it’s ready. Download the .zip.

Google explains each option on its download your data help page.

2. Bring it into Washi Notes

  1. Open Washi Notes.
  2. Open the ⋯ menu and choose Bring in Google Keep notes.
  3. Pick the .zip, check the count, and click Bring them in.

The file is read on your device and never uploaded. Notes, checklists, labels, colors, pins and archived notes come over. Images and recordings stay behind, but the words in those notes come with them. Bringing in the same file twice adds nothing new.

Bringing in Keep notes is part of Washi Pro, $12 once, which also covers Washi Deck.
