User reviews

Users appreciate that the add-on syncs with mobile apps and Kindle and provides convenient sidebar access to Google Keep notes within Firefox. It works well on certain platforms like Firefox ESR and Linux. However, many report syncing issues with Gmail accounts, repeated unsolicited tab openings, and limited added functionality compared to the website. The interface is described as cluttered and inflexible, and some users are concerned about the permissions requested.

Pros

Syncs with Google Keep mobile app and Kindle devices.
Functions reasonably well on Firefox ESR and Linux platforms.
Provides access to Google Keep notes directly from Firefox sidebar.
Useful alternative to visiting keep.google.com in a separate tab.

Cons

Does not sync properly with Gmail accounts or multiple Google accounts.
Repeatedly opens unwanted Gmail inbox tabs when switching accounts.
Provides limited functionality beyond the Google Keep website in the sidebar.
User interface is rigid, cluttered, and can be annoying to use.
Requires extensive permissions which concern some users.
