It seems Google’s note-taking service, Google Keep, is set to implement a text search feature on its note editing screen.

While Google Keep already has a feature to search across the text of all notes, the note editing screen itself lacks a search function. However, we have confirmed from the in-app code of the Android Google Keep app update v5.25.412.00.90, distributed around Friday, October 17, 2025, that code for implementing a text search feature on the note editing screen has been added.

<public type="id" name="find_prev_button" id="0x7f0b02d9" />
<public type="id" name="find_query_close_button" id="0x7f0b02da" />
<public type="id" name="find_query_edit_text" id="0x7f0b02db" />
<public type="id" name="find_query_layout" id="0x7f0b02dc" />
<public type="id" name="find_results_text" id="0x7f0b02dd" />
<public type="id" name="find_widget" id="0x7f0b02de" />
<public type="id" name="legacy_editor_find_button" id="0x7f0b03d4" />

<string name="keep_find_next">Find next</string>
<string name="keep_find_previous">Find previous</string>

<style name="Widget.Keep.FindWidget" parent="">
    <item name="android:background">?attr/colorSurfaceContainerHighest</item>
    <item name="android:layout_width">-1</item>
    <item name="android:layout_height">-2</item>
    <item name="android:paddingStart">12dp</item>
    <item name="android:paddingEnd">4dp</item>
    <item name="android:elevation">@dimen/gm3_sys_elevation_level3</item>
</style>
<style name="Widget.Keep.LegacyEditor.FindButton" parent="@style/Widget.Keep.LegacyEditor.ActionButton">
    <item name="android:id">@id/legacy_editor_find_button</item>
    <item name="android:contentDescription">@string/keep_menu_find</item>
    <item name="android:src">@drawable/quantum_ic_search_vd_theme_24</item>
</style>

This potential text search feature for the note editing screen in the Android Google Keep app is, in a way, like the text search feature in Google Docs. It is expected to be a useful function for finding multiple instances of specific text within long notes.

However, there is no sign of a feature like the bulk replace function for searched text found in Google Docs.
