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.-

Evernote the WORST EXPERIENCE
Since the "new" Evernote appeared the experience of this once great software is in total decline. The experience is worse is worse - redesigns nobody asks for, constans GUI changes, added functions which ruin workflow. But now after another "amazing" update the app doesn't START. Literally doesn't start. You guys are complete losers there.

10.95.4 Pulled
It seems like 10.95.4 has been pulled. I wonder what the issue was? Does anyone have any insight? We've had releases break things but they rarely roll them back within a day.

The database keeps updating
After updating my Android app to the latest version, it started updating the database, but it's stuck at 91%.<br> It's been taking hours.<br> I've deleted the data, uninstalled and reinstalled, but the same thing happened.<br> What should I do?

Mobile version taking too long to update it's database
The last time I opened Evernote on Android (Pixel 5a) it said I'd need internet connectivity while it upgraded the next time I opened it. It has been on the spinning Evernote icon screen showing 20% for over 15 hours now. How long should it take with 35,000 notes? Been a customer for over 10 years and never seen this behavior before. Edit 7/25: Nothing has changed; new app, notifications on/off, power cycles, left overnight at the spinny icon (woke up to 33%). Time to explore alternatives?

Won't login to Evernote or retrieve notebooks
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I did a search but could't find this discussed. I use Scannable almost on a daily basis, using my iPhone and saving my scans directly to Evernote. However every 2-3 days, Scannable logs out of my Evernote account. When it prompts me to sign it, I get a screen that says "Account Detected! It seems you are logged in this browser with the following account: [my Evernote email]", and I push the option to login. However, I continue getting errors that I need to log in, or that Scannable is unable to retrieve my list of notebooks and prompts me to log in again. I have consistently noticed that this error occurs when my cellular network temporarily goes down to two or fewer bars, and the problem disappears when my network goes up to full bars. However, on my phone, i have set both Scannable and Evernote to only use wifi data, not cellular, so I don't see why this would impact my ability to log in. I have checked that Scannable, Evernote, and the OSs on both my phone and computer are all up to date. Thank you for any insight!

I quit
I've been using Evernote ever since Bill Clinton was still in office. Well, no, but I used it for at least 12 years, I think. I used to use One Note, but due to a bug I lost all my notes. So I asked a friend (he passed away last year) if there was another software that allowed me to write from my PC and my tablet and my smartphone on the same text. And he says: try Evernote. At the time, I could sync unlimited devices, and that's just what I needed. Recently, I could sync only 3 devices, but that was still cool, I just work with my PC and my smartphone. Yesterday: only 1 device. So, why should I use Evernote in the first place? The brute fact is that Evernote is outdated as a concept. You can just creare a text file in a Cloud like Google Drive or One Drive, and you don't need anymore weird softwars to sync different devices. In the past, that was not that easy because for 10 dollars they gave you just a few gigabytes; now, with the same money, you have unlimited gigabytes, so every device is continously connected to a Cloud (we don't even need anymore a local memory storage). Moreover, there are good free alternatives, like Google Keep. I continued to use Evernote out of habit, and because it makes me think about my friend. But now, I can't continue to use it. I think that Bending Spoons have a destructive philosophy (and I'm italian too!), and I think that Evernote has no future. The app now sucks, it's full of bugs, sometimes it doesn't save your work, sometimes it says that you have more than 50 notes even if I have less than 20. The fact that long-term users like me lose FOUNDAMENTAL features (like connecting at least 3 devices) without any notice is a really bad behavior. Moreover, the app is engulfed with misleading advertising, trying to make you subscribe a paid plan structured in such a way that it is not immediately clear if you can decline.
