The problem       is finding the right one for you.              Based on what you've said, I'd look at Google Keep       https://keep.google.com/). Its simple - almost too simple. But I use       it for storing a handful of standard responses which I use when       operating as a Facebook group admin: things I need over and over. Once       added as a note, items are swiftly available on both PC and mobile.              Otherwise:              There are proprietory solutions for integrating computers and mobiles,       e.g. "Link to Windows" (MS & Samsung) and Samsung DeX (more modes of       operation). I imagine Apple have something similar for iPhones.              For 'serious' sharing, I use OneNote, which has become the "index to my       life". It synchronises with a mobile app, although they removed a       couple of years ago the ability on Android to expand/collapse indented       hierarchies of page items, which I find a real pain, as my pages are       often heavily structured. Nevertheless my whole life is in OneNote, and       it's available on all my PCs and mobiles.              Keep doesn't have the same folder hierarchies as OneNote, so it's less       suitable for wholesale storage in my view, but based on what you'd       written I'd suggest you look at that first. Keep has "labels" which can       help you find items. Try asking Gemini (or your preferred AI) this       question: "what options does Google Keep have for structuring stored       notes so they can easily be found?"              --       --       Phil, London              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
