Google Keep is an interesting because it's hard to exactly categorize exactly what it is, or exactly what use case it attempts support.
It's kind of like a crossover between a private Pinterest, a bookmarking app, and a note taking app.
So it's multi-paradigm.
But of you know your use case better, you can tailor your soltution to fit.
You can then make better decisions on online/offline, where to store state, web vs native etc.. this is the benefit of simplyfing and clarifying your use case.
For example, I am a heavy bookmarker (~70k bookmarks), so I built an open-source, self-hosted (I don't want to own your bookmarks) bookmarking web app (https://github.com/jonschoning/espial). It is pretty minimal, but it is tailored to quickly bookmarks while browsing. I didn't bother with native because I am already in a browser context when I want to bookmark something.
But maybe I am just biased towards web hosted tech. I just don't see the value add for native unless it's doing something intimately connected with the physical device or physical user.
