How it works
Folder structure in Google Keep means designing layered label paths that represent domains, projects, and status levels.
2
Why it helps
A deliberate structure prevents label sprawl and keeps retrieval fast when your notes cover multiple contexts.

Before and after
Before
Structure is implicit in label names and easily breaks as new topics appear.
After
Structure is explicit in a hierarchy, so expansion is controlled and labels stay readable.
