Now, Google appears to be rolling out a long-anticipated sorting feature to its Android app, giving some users a much easier way to organize their notes.<\/p>\n<p>A user on X (<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BlindMan199\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@BlindMan199<\/a>) first tipped us off that the new sort option had appeared, and we were able to verify that it\u2019s available on at least one of our devices, though not all of them. That suggests it\u2019s a limited rollout for now, but could expand more widely over the coming days or weeks.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Kg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Keep Sort Icon in Search Bar\"  alt=\"Google Keep Sort Icon in Search Bar\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Google-Keep-Sort-Icon-in-Search-Bar.jpg\"\/><img class=\"e_Kg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Keep Sort Options\"  alt=\"Google Keep Sort Options\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Google-Keep-Sort-Options.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If you have the feature, you\u2019ll see a new sort icon inside the search bar at the top of the main screen, as shown in the screenshots above. Tapping this opens a pop-up menu at the bottom that gives you three different ways to sort your notes:<\/p>\n<p>Custom: Lets you manually drag notes into any order;<br \/>\nDate created: Showing notes in the order you originally made them;<br \/>\nDate modified: Keeps the most recently edited ones at the top.<\/p>\n<p>Keep has always allowed manual rearrangement and pinned notes, but outside of that, your list was stuck in reverse chronological order. For anyone juggling a large number of notes, these new options could make a big difference. The feature was spotted in development some time ago, but this is the first time it\u2019s been available in the wild. It\u2019s appearing in version 5.25.302.02.90 of the app.<\/p>\n<p>Google hasn\u2019t officially announced the rollout or whether it is tied to specific devices, accounts, or regions. If you don\u2019t see the sort icon in Google Keep yet, you might just need to wait a little longer.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
