Google Keep offers a reliable and frustration-free note-taking experience, but it's always a good idea to back up your notes once in a while. You can easily extract a copy of your Google Keep's archive with Google's dedicated backup tool, Takeout.

To use it, visit the Google Takeout page and log in with the Google account associated with Keep. Click "Deselect All" if you just want to download your Keep data, and not files from any of the other Google services.

Click "Deselect All."

In the "Products" list, scroll down and select the checkbox next to "Keep."

Select the checkbox next to "Keep."

In the "Multiple formats" option, you can see in which format Google extracts your Keep notes.

Scroll to the bottom and click "Next Step."

Click "Next Step."

On the following page, you can choose:

  • How Google sends you the archive.
  • If you want Google to automatically back up your Keep data every two months.
  • The file type.
  • If you want Google to split the archive if it's over a certain amount of GBs.

Once you have it all ready to go, click "Create Export."

Click "Create Export."

Google will start backing up your Keep notes and attachments. You won't immediately receive the archive file. Depending on how much data you have, this can take hours, or even days. You don't have to keep this window open.

If you change your mind, you can scrap it with "Cancel Export."

Click "Cancel Export" if you change your mind.

In addition to your notes, Google also sends you the following:

  • Photos, videos, or audio recordings you've imported
  • The names of people with whom you've collaborated on Google Keep
  • Your list of labels.

When it's done, you'll receive an email with a link to the archive that will expire after one week. Click "Download Your Files" and sign in again with your Google credentials for confirmation.

Click "Download Your Files."

Your computer will start downloading the archive file. If it doesn't, click "Download" beside your latest backup entry to manually request it.

Click "Download."

In the archive, click the "archive_browse.html" file. This will launch a web app in your browser so you can easily browse through all your Google Keep data.

You can also browse the notes from the "Keep" folder individually in the downloaded archive.

How to Download Your Own YouTube Videos

YouTube makes uploading videos easy. Downloading them is another story altogether. Here's how you can download any video you've ever uploaded to YouTube.

How to Download a Single YouTube Video

From the YouTube homepage, click your profile image at the top-right corner of the screen. If you don't see your Google profile image, you'll need to sign in.

Near the top of the list, click the "YouTube Studio" option.

 

Choose "Videos" from the sidebar on the left.

Hover over any video to bring up a menu. Click "Options," at the end of the menu (the three vertical dots).

Click "Download." YouTube should immediately start to download an mp4 version of your uploaded video.

For those who want to download a single video or two, this is all you need. But if you have a library of hundreds, perhaps thousands of uploaded videos, there's a better way.

How to Download Multiple All Your YouTube Videos at Once

To download all your YouTube videos at once, head over to Google Takeout. Here, you can access all of your Google data. You can export everything from Android configuration files to your search history all from one place.

Click "Deselect All," assuming it's just YouTube videos you're after.

Click "All YouTube Data Included" to open a list of the files you can export.

Check or uncheck what you'd like to save. In this case, we'll choose "Deselect All," and just check the option at the bottom for "Videos." Click "OK" to close the window.

Click the "Next Step" button.

Choose your delivery method and your export frequency. Google can send you a download link for your videos, or there's the option to automatically stow them away inside of Google Drive, Dropbox, or other cloud storage services. You can also choose to "Export Once" or "Export Every 2 Months For 1 year" from this menu.

Choose a file type and the size of your download. If you have several videos, you have the option to split them into files as small as 1GB. File types include .zip and .tgz.

Click the "Create Export" button to finish. Google will prepare the videos and offer you a download link.

YouTube doesn't offer an official way to download other people's YouTube videos—not unless you want to download them offline in the YouTube app to watch them later. That requires a YouTube Premium subscription.
