Review momentum
ⓘ How we measure thisNew ratings a week
–
Apple's rating count fell over the last 4 weeks: it removed more ratings than came in (spam clean-ups, deleted accounts), so the pace can't be read right now
Lifetime rating
5.0★
recent stars not readable yet: new ratings are a tiny share of the total
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About Kept Notes
Kept Notes is a fast, friendly notes app for people who want simple capture without giving up control of their data.
Apple Intelligence-powered Smart Capture: Using natural language you can entirely manage your notes - create, update, share, label, archive, and trash notes while keeping AI processing local and private on supported devices.
Jot down a thought, make a checklist, save a link, attach a file, add an image, sketch a quick doodle, or set a reminder — all in a clean, colorful notes experience designed to stay out of your way.
Kept is built around the idea that your notes should belong to you. Connect to your own Kept instance and keep your notes, uploads, reminders, labels, and settings on infrastructure you control.
What you can do with Kept:
• Create text notes, checklists, image notes, drawings, and file attachments
• Pin important notes so they stay at the top
• Organize with labels, colors, and background images
• Save links and generate rich link previews
• Attach PDFs, documents, ZIP files, and other useful files
• Set reminders for things you do not want to forget
• Search quickly and filter by note type, label, or date
• Share notes with other users on your instance
• Import notes from Google Takeout
• Export your notes when you need a copy
• Use backups to protect your data
Kept is designed to feel lightweight and familiar: open it, capture the thing, move on. No clutter. No heavy project-management system pretending to be a notes app. Just quick notes, visual organization, and ownership.
Important: Kept can be used entirely independently, however, for features like note sharing, collaboration, web access, access across devices, and server integrations you will still require a Kept server. You can self-host a Kept server by following the setup instructions are available at www.keepitkept.xyz.
