General

On macOS Big Sur, the library window toolbar is now sectioned and resizes to match the sidebar and list view, when possible. The Tag Filter and View Options buttons are now part of the toolbar, and the search field collapses to an icon when space is limited.
The name of the selected list is now the library window title, and on macOS Big Sur the window title is shown as part of the toolbar.
On macOS Big Sur, a new “Show Item Count” option can be enabled in the View menu to show the number of items below the library window title. This replaces the status bar on Big Sur.
On macOS Big Sur, the item’s name is now shown as the title of editor windows, and Ctrl-clicking this will show the full path of the file.
All icons updated to match the look of macOS Big Sur.
The Move to Folder menu is now hierarchical, with favorite folders shown at the top.
The Add to Bundle menu now also includes favorites at the top.
In Compact Mode, dragging to the back button will go back to the previous view.

Keep It will now run natively on Apple silicon.
Keep It now requires macOS 10.15 Catalina or later.

Sidebar

On macOS Big Sur, the sidebar is now full-height, and icons will either appear in Keep It’s accent color or the system accent color depending on the setting in General System Preferences. The Favorites list is always shown with a yellow icon, and deleted folders with grey icons.
Folders, bundles, and saved searches can now be color-coded by choosing File > Change Color from the menu. On macOS Big Sur this affects the icon, and a color icon is shown on the opposite side of the name when the list is selected and the sidebar has focus. On Catalina the color icon is always shown.
Dates in saved searches can now be chosen using a calendar in macOS 10.15.4 and later.

Labels

Label colors can be changed directly in the sidebar to one of the standard label colors, or a custom color.
Standard label colors now match the system accent colors and adapt for light and dark modes.
