Save Web Links
Save web links to Keep It, view them in the app, open them in your browser, or save them as PDFs or web archives for offline reading.
Add Anything
Any kind of file can be created from stationery, added to Keep It or saved to its folders, and then opened for editing in other applications. With iCloud, changes are automatically made available across all your Macs and iOS devices.
Preview and Edit
Keep It generates thumbnails and summaries for most files, can edit its own notes, rich text, plain text and Markdown files, add highlights and notes PDFs, and show images, web pages and most other documents. Any item can be encrypted with a password.
iCloud
Everywhere
Keep It can store everything in iCloud and make it available across all your Macs, and your iPad and iPhone too, with Keep It for iPad and iPhone.
Share Folders and Items
Keep it can share top-level folders and individual items with other Keep It users via iCloud. Participants will see all changes automatically.
Organize
Folders
Folders let you organize items and bundles hierarchically, when needed. Select a folder to see everything it contains, double-click to focus the sidebar on that folder.
Bundles
When you need to gather things into one place, make a bundle. Items can be in more than one bundle at a time, and when you remove the bundle, everything else stays where it was.
Labels
Use labels to color-code items for quick visual recognition. Labels are listed in the sidebar so you can quickly see everything with a particular label.
More Lists
Use the Recents list to see things you’ve added or viewed lately, with the latest shown at the top. Favorites provide quick access. Deleted Items are automatically removed after 30 days.
Search and Filter
Search
Keep It can search the content of most files, and can recognize text in scanned PDFs and images. While searching, suggestions appear as you type, allowing you to narrow down results to exactly what you need. Save searches for later reuse.
Tag Filter
Keep It’s Tag Filter makes finding things by tags easy, and works with search and the selected list. Choose a tag to see all the tagged items and any other relevant tags; choose another tag to drill down further.
Works with Your Mac
Real Files
Keep It stores everything you add as files, folders and tags in the Finder that mirror what you see in the app, rather than stuff everything into a database. You can even save new files to these folders to automatically add them.
True Integration
This approach lets Keep It work with the system and all your existing apps, files can be searched with Spotlight, backed up with Time Machine, and opened in any suitable app for editing. Tasks in Keep It can be automated with AppleScript and Automator actions.
Where You Need It
Compact Mode
In compact mode, Keep It for Mac becomes a single column, ideal for using alongside other apps or in split screen.
Works with Other Apps
Pretty much anything can be dragged to Keep It, and you can also add things from a variety of apps with Keep It’s share extension.

There’s a popular story that Gauss, mathematician extraordinaire, had a lazy teacher. The so-called educator wanted to keep the kids busy so he could take a nap; he asked the class to add the numbers 1 to 100.
Gauss approached with his answer: 5050. So soon? The teacher suspected a cheat, but no. Manual addition was for suckers, and Gauss found a formula to sidestep the problem:
Let’s share a few explanations of this result and really understand it intuitively. For these examples we’ll add 1 to 10, and then see how it applies for 1 to 100 (or 1 to any number).
Technique 1: Pair Numbers
Pairing numbers is a common approach to this problem. Instead of writing all the numbers in a single column, let’s wrap the numbers around, like this:
An interesting pattern emerges: the sum of each column is 11. As the top row increases, the bottom row decreases, so the sum stays the same.
Because 1 is paired with 10 (our n), we can say that each column has (n+1). And how many pairs do we have? Well, we have 2 equal rows, we must have n/2 pairs.
which is the formula above.
Wait — what about an odd number of items?
Ah, I’m glad you brought it up. What if we are adding up the numbers 1 to 9? We don’t have an even number of items to pair up. Many explanations will just give the explanation above and leave it at that. I won’t.
Let’s add the numbers 1 to 9, but instead of starting from 1, let’s count from 0 instead:
By counting from 0, we get an “extra item” (10 in total) so we can have an even number of rows. However, our formula will look a bit different.
Notice that each column has a sum of n (not n+1, like before), since 0 and 9 are grouped. And instead of having exactly n items in 2 rows (for n/2 pairs total), we have n + 1 items in 2 rows (for (n + 1)/2 pairs total). If you plug these numbers in you get:
which is the same formula as before. It always bugged me that the same formula worked for both odd and even numbers – won’t you get a fraction? Yep, you get the same formula, but for different reasons.
Technique 2: Use Two Rows
The above method works, but you handle odd and even numbers differently. Isn’t there a better way? Yes.
Instead of looping the numbers around, let’s write them in two rows:
Notice that we have 10 pairs, and each pair adds up to 10+1.
The total of all the numbers above is
But we only want the sum of one row, not both. So we divide the formula above by 2 and get:
Now this is cool (as cool as rows of numbers can be). It works for an odd or even number of items the same!
Technique 3: Make a Rectangle
I recently stumbled upon another explanation, a fresh approach to the old pairing explanation. Different explanations work better for different people, and I tend to like this one better.
Instead of writing out numbers, pretend we have beans. We want to add 1 bean to 2 beans to 3 beans… all the way up to 5 beans.
Sure, we could go to 10 or 100 beans, but with 5 you get the idea. How do we count the number of beans in our pyramid?
Well, the sum is clearly 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5. But let’s look at it a different way. Let’s say we mirror our pyramid (I’ll use “o” for the mirrored beans), and then topple it over:
Cool, huh? In case you’re wondering whether it “really” lines up, it does. Take a look at the bottom row of the regular pyramid, with 5′x (and 1 o). The next row of the pyramid has 1 less x (4 total) and 1 more o (2 total) to fill the gap. Just like the pairing, one side is increasing, and the other is decreasing.
Now for the explanation: How many beans do we have total? Well, that’s just the area of the rectangle.
We have n rows (we didn’t change the number of rows in the pyramid), and our collection is (n + 1) units wide, since 1 “o” is paired up with all the “x”s.
![Keep Keep](https://format-com-cld-res.cloudinary.com/image/private/s--qWfaD787--/c_limit,g_center,h_65535,w_700/a_auto,fl_keep_iptc.progressive,q_95/v1/040ea0b69ce6592015b37127150d4f93/CameronMackie-Anthea-13.jpg)
Notice that this time, we don’t care about n being odd or even – the total area formula works out just fine. If n is odd, we’ll have an even number of items (n+1) in each row.
But of course, we don’t want the total area (the number of x’s and o’s), we just want the number of x’s. Since we doubled the x’s to get the o’s, the x’s by themselves are just half of the total area:
And we’re back to our original formula. Again, the number of x’s in the pyramid = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5, or the sum from 1 to n.
Technique 4: Average it out
We all know that
average = sum / number of items
which we can rewrite to
sum = average * number of items
Allegorithmic substance designer 2019 2 3 download free.So let’s figure out the sum. If we have 100 numbers (1…100), then we clearly have 100 items. That was easy.
To get the average, notice that the numbers are all equally distributed. For every big number, there’s a small number on the other end. Let’s look at a small set:
The average is 2. 2 is already in the middle, and 1 and 3 “cancel out” so their average is 2.
For an even number of items
the average is between 2 and 3 – it’s 2.5. Even though we have a fractional average, this is ok — since we have an even number of items, when we multiply the average by the count that ugly fraction will disappear.
Notice in both cases, 1 is on one side of the average and N is equally far away on the other. So, we can say the average of the entire set is actually just the average of 1 and n: (1 + n)/2.
Putting this into our formula
And voila! We have a fourth way of thinking about our formula.
So why is this useful?
Keep It 100%
Three reasons:
1) Adding up numbers quickly can be useful for estimation. Notice that the formula expands to this:
Let’s say you want to add the numbers from 1 to 1000: suppose you get 1 additional visitor to your site each day – how many total visitors will you have after 1000 days? Since thousand squared = 1 million, we get
million / 2 + 1000/2 = 500,500
.2) This concept of adding numbers 1 to N shows up in other places, like figuring out the probability for the birthday paradox. Having a firm grasp of this formula will help your understanding in many areas.
3) Most importantly, this example shows there are many ways to understand a formula. Maybe you like the pairing method, maybe you prefer the rectangle technique, or maybe there’s another explanation that works for you. Don’t give up when you don’t understand — try to find another explanation that works. Happy math.
By the way, there are more details about the history of this story and the technique Gauss may have used.
Variations
Instead of 1 to n, how about 5 to n?
Start with the regular formula (1 + 2 + 3 + … + n = n * (n + 1) / 2) and subtract off the part you don’t want (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 4 * (4 + 1) / 2 = 10).
And for any starting number a:
We want to get rid of every number from 1 up to a – 1.
How about even numbers, like 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + … + n?
Just double the regular formula. To add evens from 2 to 50, find 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 … + 25 and double it:
So, to get the evens from 2 to 50 you’d do 25 * (25 + 1) = 650
How about odd numbers, like 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + … + n?
That’s the same as the even formula, except each number is 1 less than its counterpart (we have 1 instead of 2, 3 instead of 4, and so on). We get the next biggest even number (n + 1) and take off the extra (n + 1)/2 “-1″ items:
To add 1 + 3 + 5 + … 13, get the next biggest even (n + 1 = 14) and do
Combinations: evens and offset
Let’s say you want the evens from 50 + 52 + 54 + 56 + … 100. Find all the evens
and subtract off the ones you don’t want
Keep It 100 Blue Slushie
So, the sum from 50 + 52 + … 100 = (50 * 51) – (24 * 25) = 1950
Phew! Hope this helps.
