Introducing Offline Notes on mobile
Guest Anibal I. posted a topic in Community Announcements,
Hi all,
Make sure the info you need is always available, even when Wi-Fi isn’t. Now Personal, Professional and Teams users can select specific notes to access when their phone or tablet is offline—without having to download an entire notebook.
That way, you'll never lose access to vital information or documents.
To make a note available offline, swipe left on a note in the note list then tap the green download button.
To see all your offline content in one place, tap the “Offline” tab in the sidebar.

Roundup of our Q3 updates
Guest Anibal I. posted a topic in Community Announcements,
Hi all,
Since our last updates roundup, we've been burning the midnight oil. In the past three months, we've launched or upgraded a bunch of features that will help you organize your life and accomplish more.
Mostly, we've brought in a variety of time-saving shortcuts, but there are a couple of productivity boosters in there as well. Here's the Q3 rundown:
Just drag to tag
Tag your notes quicker! Simply drag a tag from the sidebar or the tags menu directly into a note to apply it to that note.
Manage your progress
You'll now see a progress bar when executing several actions at once (like deleting notes or editing tags), so you can see at a glance how far you have left to go. Even better, if you change your mind about it, you can cancel the actions mid-progress.
Get to your preferences faster
We've made it easier for you to adjust the app's settings by combining them into one big Settings menu. You can instantly open the new menu by clicking Cmd + , on Mac or Ctrl + , on Windows and Linux. And if Settings is already open, you can use the same shortcut to close it. Or just open the menu by selecting "Settings" from the Evernote title bar dropdown.
Open your shortcuts faster in iOS
Our latest iOS widget shows you a list of your top shortcuts from your home screen. Find the one you want and open it in Evernote with one tap.
Get around faster on your tablet
We added a mini sidebar to make it easier than ever to navigate the app on your iPad, tablet, or Chromebook device. Now you no longer have to pull up the main menu to access those tools.
More keyboard shortcuts
Cut your working time even more, thanks to keyboard shortcuts on Android/Chromebook tablet and iOS/iPad. And if you use an external keyboard for your iPhone or Android device, you can use them there as well!
Give these new features a try and discover how much time they’ll save. We’ll let you know when our next round of improvements is ready for prime time. Until then, make sure to update to the current version of Evernote on all of your devices so you have access to the latest and greatest.
To see the full list of all our recent enhancements, check out our archive of release notes. If you’re interested in how we deliver updates, read this article to see how we share new releases with our customers.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions. Take care!

Roundup of our Q2 updates
Guest Anibal I. posted a topic in Community Announcements,
Hi all,
Since our last roundup in April, we’ve added improvements to help you cut down on the busy work and focus on what’s really important.
This includes new functionality to help you tackle recurring tasks with less effort, find what you need faster, and take action in the app with fewer keystrokes, clicks, and taps. Here’s a rundown of the biggest enhancements we made in Q2:
Make your recurring tasks easier to tackle — One of your most requested features is here! Tasks is more powerful than ever with the addition of recurring tasks. You can now schedule repeating due dates and reminders for your tasks. When you mark the task as done, Evernote automatically resets to the next due date for you.
Take action in Evernote, right from your iOS home screen — All of our latest widgets can help you tap less and do more:
Actions Bar: One tap starts a new note, opens the camera, or creates a new task. Perfect for capturing fleeting ideas and moments before they slip away. You can even search for an existing note right from the widget.
Notes List: See a list of recently updated notes right on your home screen. A single tap takes you directly into the note of your choice, so you can access existing information and add new content in fewer steps.
Tasks List: Check in with your tasks at a glance and open any task to access its details with—you guessed it—just one tap. Note that the Tasks List widget is available for Personal, Professional, and Teams accounts.
Ready to save some time? See how to set up a widget on your iOS device.
Android user? We see you. Here’s how to set up widgets on your Android device.
Linking just got easier — When you think about all the on-screen navigation it takes to add a link, it’s actually pretty cumbersome, but now there’s a more intuitive way. Simply copy a URL, highlight the text in your note you want to link, select ‘Paste,’ and voila—link added! We love how much time it saves, and we think you will too.
If you like stacks, you’ll love this — Stacks are a great way to organize related notebooks, but now there’s a way to find the information in your stacks faster: filter by stack when searching within Evernote or using the filtered notes widget—and find what you need with less guesswork. Note that this functionality is not available for Teams customers yet, but we’re working on it.
These are just the highlights from our recent updates. There’s a lot more where this came from. We’ll let you know when we release our next round of improvements. Until then, update to the current version of Evernote on all of your devices to make sure you have access to the latest and greatest.
To see the full list of all our recent enhancements, check out our archive of release notes. If you’re interested in how we deliver updates, read this article to see how we share new releases with our customers.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions.-

Recurring tasks are now available!
Guest posted a topic in Community Announcements,
Hi all,
I’m pleased to announce the launch of one of your most requested features: recurring tasks!
This new capability makes Tasks even more useful, helping you manage all those regularly occurring to-dos – from weekly project updates week to bi-yearly dentist appointments – with ease.
When adding a due date to a task, you’ll now have the option to make it repeat as many times as you want. Preset options like “daily” and “weekly” are available, or you can set a custom interval. When you mark a recurring task as complete Evernote automatically resets to the next due date for you.
Recurring tasks is rolling out on Mac and Windows version 10.40, and iOS and Android version 10.35. iOS, Mac and Windows customers can get the latest version today by heading to the app store or by using the direct download from our website. For Android customers, the update will roll out over the next few days and will be available to you soon.
Special thanks to everyone in our Early Access Program who participated in the beta and shared thoughts and suggestions on recurring tasks. Your feedback helps Evernote continuously improve.
Learn more about recurring tasks on our blog. And if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to @Anibal I. directly.-

Postach.io Panic!!
To my mild surprise (the air was blue here for a while) I just found out that my 3 Postach.io websites are offline - the link between Evernote and Postach.io (says Postach) has expired. Since I tend to regard myself as a not-stupid*, I'm usually quite diligent in renewing links for services I use, and I really don't remember seeing anything recently about this. I'm totally NOT blaming Evernote at this point (and for the record Postach.io's help service makes Evernote look good...) but I would recommend that anyone with a Postach.io connection makes sure they still have a link, and sets up a reminder / task / diary entry to NOT forget to renew it! I plan to do that once I get my stuff back and running. On a first quick glance it looks like I lost layouts, backgrounds and everything but the notes in Evernote, but that might just be the panic reaction. I'll have to reconnect and see. On the (vaguely) positive side I've been meaning to do something about tidying this stuff up for ages. This is nature's way of applying a gentle kick where it was needed. Doh! *Heinlein reference

Cleaning up r/Evernote
Recently a kind Redditor, u/SeanAky was able to make a Reddit Request and after many tries, gain control of r/Evernote with the intent of not making it like the wild west anymore. I offered to help him and suggested he offer mod positions to u/IceReasonable7615 who is an Evernote Expert and creator of r/EvernotePositive as well as @Jon/t. Together we are going to do our best to keep the community civil and ensure people treat each other with respect. No more name calling or personal attacks will be tolerated like in the past. We've already instituted a Feedback/Suggestions megathread to direct any constructive criticism of Evernote so that Bending Spoons can see all feedback in one place while at the same time doing our best to remove individual threads that are overly angry and directing those users to the feedback thread. Moreover we've added a dedicated megathread to discuss Alternative apps as we found nearly every other thread was asking about alternatives to Evernote which drowns out real discussion. Regardless if anyone has been avoiding Reddit because of the way it was in the past, we are hoping it will be better going forward. I've already reached out to Bending Spoons to hopefully coordinate with their social media team while keeping moderation of the sub in the hands of the community to ensure impartiality.

Any luck in speeding up Evernote?
Hello there, I realize there's been several topics on this but I can't figure out if users were able to solve the speed issues or not and what worked? Basically, the app (desktop on W10 and web) is just slow and clunky for me (especially since last release). Selecting notes is slow when the highlighter lags behind mouse cursor (web and desktop), loading of notes is slow, highlighting text is lagging too etc.,. App is essentially 1-3 seconds lagging behind my actions to the point where I just stopped taking notes because I don't like using it anymore and I find it painful. PC is not a problem. I have 128GB of RAM, i7-12700k, 990PRO Samsung 2TB drive, no GPU. What I did so far: Uninstall evernote using Revo uninstaller as was suggested somewhere Checked if I have hardware acceleration on Unchecked spelling Is there anything else I can try, should do? I want to give it a try 100% because honestly, I don't want to go through migration... I've been a user since 2011 and was happy with the fast product, simplicity. Otherwise, any alternatives that would resemble legacy Evernote for just note taking? Thanks

"Failed to send email"
This morning, I'm trying to "E-mail a copy" and I keep getting this error, "Failed to send email." I've tried multiple devices (no error on Android, but it is not being sent), and multiple notes.

Saved Search Syntax
Hello, I exported all of my notebooks to ENEX files prior to having to switch to V10 in March. In Legacy I tagged all 22000 notes in one go with 'export0324'. Now I need to export all newer notes that don't have that tag which is a mess since I can't select more than 100 notes in one go. I search for all notes without the tag 'export0324', select 100 of them and move them to a new notebook where they get another tag 'export1124'. How can I search for all notes NOT containing tag 'export0324' and NOT containing tag 'export1124'? This is needed to successively select 100 notes that have not been exported in March and have not been moved to the new notebook. Otherwise I would select the same notes again which is not helpful. The search -tag:export0324 AND -tag:export1124 does not return any results and is therefore not correct, but I can't find a help page where the syntax for negative conditions is explained. Why on earth can't I simply select ALL notes that don't contain one tag? Thanks!

Could not complete the transcription. Please try again.
Have others been getting this? I have been unable to transcribe from image recently, which led me to find this online service https://www.imagetotext.info/ - seems to do it very well. I would prefer to continue using Evernote for this... but if it no longer works, is that button at the upper right corner of images is a constant reminder, in live events where you need to refer to image it is actually a liability, I assume there is no way to remove it, and expect a future update to tidy the appearance up.<br>
