4 Level 5 tavor 668 Posted April 17, 2018 Level 5 Posted April 17, 2018 I moved this from Android Feature Requests to General Feature Requests, as this is not a platform-specific request. I think it's a good idea. While there is a third party option that gazumped linked to above, some may prefer native functionality. Could be a useful feature to add to a tiered level of EN subscription (e.g., Plus or Premium). Maybe EN can buy SureFocus.

1 Peter Fraterdeus 1 Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Seems like this should be built in. Who is making these design decisions? seriously. Not sure why I can't add an up vote here? 1
1 Brandon Wood 6 Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 Agreed. Pop up notifications and an email option would be fantastic 3

1 brunolopes 2 Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 You can't call evernote a tool for team work and project management without this feature. 2

1 mrstevevietnam 3 Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Now that Surefocus has stopped functioning, is there any other app? The lack of notifications is driving me nuts. I've been using Evernote for around 10 years as a paid user... Notifications of note changes in shared notebooks is a pretty basic function and I'm surprised Evernote hasnt included this yet. How difficult is it to implement?

1 [email protected] 0 Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I switched over from onenote because setting up another collaborative team member was way too difficult with microsoft. Very easy with Evernote. HOWEVER, I don't know when my team member is updating our notes and when I should be looking at the updates. Instead, I have to alter my routine to look at Evernote daily, whether there were updates or not. Not the best solution.... Please allow notifications for evernote updates!!!
0 caroline69 1 Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Ugh....I'm late to the party. What do we use now that SureFocus is no more? https://surefocusapp.com/ I have been sharing a folder with my husband this year and we need to see when one of us has edited or created a document in the shared space. A push notification setting would be helpful. 1

A push notification setting would be helpful. Two suggestions - use a message app of some sort; Evernote has a Slack integration forinstance... Or (and you didn't hear this from me! 😎) try Workflowy which allows lists and notes to be shared, and can be set to email a daily update of things that have been changed... Here's part of my setup: https://workflowy.com/s/example-stub/7eEN3KzuV67vG1qg
0 Quazi 0 Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 Still nothing from Evernote? Not even a comment on how to collaborate without notifications. What is the point of sharing via Evernote if there is no way to know when changes are made?

Evernote do not usually comment on when or whether new features may be available until they are available. They make no claims that the app will notify users when changes are made - it's up to us to work out ways to use the feature as it currently is - or to find an alternative app that performs better.
0 aatencio 2 Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 I don't know of anyone who is using this as a team environment primarily because of this missing feature. If Evernote has any desire to be a true work group application in the business world this feature is a basic requirement 2

There's a big feature missing in evernote shared notebooks. There should be a feature of getting notifications and alerts when someone edits a share note or notebook.
