This is a pretty cool feature since it can help you create a list of things you need to bring to a picnic in Central Park, or a shopping list of items you’ll need to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for 10. Heck, you can even create a list of the top Beatles songs that a fan of the band should listen to. You can also have the list set up to include boxes that can be checked off when an item has been shipped or a song heard. Whatever kind of list you need, Google Keep can create with the Magic List.
To use the Magic List you’ll need to open the Google Keep app on a compatible phone. Tap the “+” button on the lower right of the screen. That will bring up four options that Keep users will get to select from.
Press on List and you will see a rectangular box with a blue background that says, “Help me create a list.” Tap the rectangle and you’ll be taken to a field where you can type in your list creation request. For example, you can type in “Create shopping list for a family picnic for four.” Tap the create button and the list is created. To turn it into a proper list, press the Insert button in the lower right corner and you’ll have a shopping list that you can use at the supermarket. Check the appropriate box when you find each item to keep the list up-to-date.
