Notes
- In Notes Settings (choose Settings from the action menu when viewing a note), enable “Always Constrain Image Sizes” to constrain the size images are displayed in all notes, and choose from four different sizes.
- The “Show Small Images” setting in the action menu has been changed to “Constrain Image Sizes”. When enabled, this uses the size chosen in notes settings, and only applies to the current note (the “Thumbnail” size matches the old behaviour).
- On iOS 18 and later, highlights in rich text files are preserved when converted to notes.
Notes & Editable Text Documents
- Highlights added to notes and rich text documents now have a new appearance.
- The name generated for notes and rich text documents will now include the filename of the first attachment, if any.
- Formats for inserting the current date and time have moved from the Settings app to each editor’s Settings view, although the settings apply to notes and all editable text documents.
- Keep It can now insert dates and times using the ISO 8601 format. When the date format is set to an ISO 8601 format, the time format will be too, and vice versa. These dates are always in the local time zone, rather than GMT.
Web Links
- A featured image will now be shown in Reader mode. This can be disabled in Keep It’s settings.
- A featured image will now be included in minimal web pages. This can be disabled in Keep It’s settings.
- Fixed an issue that could occur when an unsaved web link’s URL changes.
PDFs
- When a document’s annotations or pages change, changes are now saved immediately, rather than after the usual autosave delay.
Encrypted Items
- When exporting a library with encrypted items, Keep It will now try to authenticate or prompt for the password before the export begins.
- In Settings, choose “Always Require Password to View or Decrypt” to not use Face ID or Touch ID to view or decrypt encrypted items.
Items List

- Keep It now includes the added and modified dates when exporting a bookmarks HTML file.
- Only HTTP and HTTPs links are imported.
Import & Export
- Both folders and files can now be chosen when choosing Files from the + menu, and the separate “Import Folder” menu item has been removed from the new group menu.
- Either files or folders can be added to specific lists by tapping and holding on the folder and choosing “Add Files” from the menu.
- The “Export iCloud Data” button in Library Settings has been renamed to “Export Library”, and is available whether or not the library is using iCloud.
