Google Keep update brings a long-awaited change to text notes

The Google Keep team decided to shake things up with a redesign of its floating action button (FAB) back in November. While the updated FAB accommodated plenty of options, it also had the side effect of adding an extra step to create a basic text-only note, which is arguably among the most used features on the note-taking app. Thankfully, we saw evidence of this changing in early January with a "Create text notes with a single tap" option in settings. This new toggle is now rolling out to some Android devices running the latest version of Google Keep for Android.
