Google’s reputation for launching overlapping apps is well-earned — just look at the confusion between Hangouts, Meet, and Chat. But after years of throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks, the search giant might finally be onto something with its latest foray in the note-taking genre. Yes, it integrates Gemini (because what doesn’t these days?), but it’s done in a genuinely useful and tasteful way.
