Seems to be fixed now.
It's showing version: 8.9 on my Samsung.
I'm still really unhappy with the entire way this was handled. No one from Evernote responded here to acknowledge the problem, to let us know if it was actually being addressed, or that it was fixed.
Even with the bug report I submitted, their response was lacking. After I submitted it, I got a response saying it was being worked on. And then the support request was closed! (I was never asked if I had anything more to say or wanted more info.) I asked that it be re-opened until it was actually fixed, and they did that. Except then --- the request was closed again, and again without asking or notifying me. This is really poor customer interaction.
I've been paying for Evernote for many years, but they've lost me. I used to heartily recommend it, but no more. Too bad -- they had such potential.
