Google Keep is a simple and useful note-taking app for quick ideas, checklists, reminders, and daily planning. Using it is very easy, but migrating from one account to another is difficult because of no direct migration method. Also, why is there a need to transfer your Google Keep notes?

Why Users Need to Transfer Google Keep Notes?

Organizations, professionals, and individual users have their own reasons for moving their Google Keep notes. Below are the common reasons that most users move their notes.
  • Switching from old Google account to new one or switching company.
  • Migrating from student or company account to personal account or vice versa.
  • Company domain changes, mergers, or rebranding.
  • To organize your Google Keep Notes, you are separating them into personal and work accounts.
  • Your current Google Storage is full. To reduce it, you have to move the important notes to another account.
  • For backup purpose most professionals transfer them to another account.
Whatever your reasons, it is not that difficult to move Google Keep Notes to another Google account. Below are the methods that can help you.

Share Google Keep Notes with Another Account

In Google Keep, there is a built-in feature “share notes with another user”. With the help of this, you can move your notes. Here’s how this method works.
  1. Open Google Keep in your browser. Log in with your old Google account.
  2. Open the note you want to transfer.
  3. Click the Collaborator icon (profile with + sign).
  4. Enter your new Google account email.
  5. Click Save.
Repeat the above steps to share each Google note. After you have done, follow these steps to createan independent copy of your new account.
  1. From the new Google account. Open the shared note
  2. Click the 3-dot menu.
  3. Choose Make a copy.
This method is simple and safe. There will be no loss of data formatting. Your images and checklists will be intact and work on both mobile and desktop. But you have to move each note one by one, which makes it a time-consuming process. So, you can’t use this method for bulk migration.

Use Google Takeout to Export Keep Notes

Google Takeout is a free tool provided by Google, where you can download your Google Keep notes and move them to another account. This method exports your notes as HTML and JSON files, which makes it easier to open and copy the content into the new account.
  1. Go to Google Takeout. Sign in with your old account.
  2. Click Deselect all.
  3. Scroll and select Google Keep.
  4. Click Next step.
  5. Choose file type (ZIP recommended).
  6. Click Create export.
When Google completes the process, it will send you an email with a downloadable link. Your data is in ZIP format. To get your notes' content, extract it by following the steps.
  1. Download the ZIP file.
  2. Extract it.
  3. Open the HTML files.
  4. Copy content.
  5. Paste into new Keep notes in your new account.
With this method, you can move all notes at once, including images and formatting, but it is not a direct method. You still have to copy and paste the content and recreate the checklists. Therefore, this method is best for backup.

Copy-Paste Between Google Accounts

If you have a few notes that you want to transfer, use this method.
  1. Log into old account. Open a note.
  2. Copy the text.
  3. Switch to a new account. Create a new note
  4. Paste content.
It is a quick option to move a few Google Keep notes to another Google account. But in this, you have to manually add images and reminders again.

Convert Notes to Google Docs First to Move to Another Account

Google Docs can also be used as an intermediate to move Google Keep notes. Google Keep has a built-in feature where you copy notes into Google Docs and then transfer the data.
  1. Open note in Google Keep. Click the 3-dot menu.
  2. Choose Copy to Google Docs. Open the created Doc.
  3. Share that Doc with your new account.
  4. Copy content into new Keep notes.
By using this, your Google Keep notes structure is preserved, and you can easily transfer long notes. But, still, it is not efficient because of human error and the time-consuming process.

Whichever manual method you use, there are some limitations that you may encounter. For individual users, the above methods are good. But professionals or businesses need a more secure solution to move their Google Keep notes. For this, I have a perfect solution.
