There’s a certain balance that needs to be achieved with lock screen functionality. You can’t give away too much because of, well, security and such. But it’s also very useful to be able to execute quick functions without having to go to the trouble of unlocking your phone and navigating to an app.
Google seems to have picked up on this and is preparing to let users jot down notes with Google Keep straight from the lock screen in Android 14. This could be a serious time-saver for when you just want to capture a quick reminder that's fresh in your brain. And if it sounds familiar, it’s because Samsung offers the same functionality for phones Samsung Notes and its S Pen stylus.
