Review and open original notes

  • Preview cards preserve Keep's rendered order and separate pinned and unpinned notes.
  • Best-effort previews can include titles, text, images, reminders, and note colors.
  • Opening a preview restores Keep's native grid and opens the original note for editing.

Leave the view safely

Select the active item again, use its clear control, choose another SubKeep label, or navigate to another Keep view. SubKeep then restores the normal native grid.

Important boundaries

  • The view covers active notes currently retained by Keep after the scan; it is not an account-wide query.
  • If Keep cannot provide a complete loaded set, SubKeep leaves the normal Notes view unchanged.
  • Preview cards are read-only. Editing and note actions remain in Keep's native editor.
