modastaff 3 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Is there a way to make a specific note within a notebook private? I have a passcode on the app as a whole, but would love to be able to make a specific note private as well. Is there anyway to do this? I’m on iOS as I’m asking this. Link to comment
Level 5* DTLow 5,743 Posted February 5, 2019 Level 5* Share Posted February 5, 2019 What's your definition of "private"? I use encryption for security purposes. Evernote has a text encryption feature (Mac/Win). I also use the native encryption in attachments - pdfs, office/word documents, ... Link to comment
modastaff 3 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 My definition of private would be that the note doesn’t show up automatically without another step if someone happened to be on the computer and able to see what was there. I don’t know how to do the native encryption for text on iOS. Link to comment

Sorry, I should have indicated text encryption is a Mac/Win feature.

There's nothing stopping a user from just using the "template" note" in their own database, and duplicating/copying it as needed, is there? I do that rather than using the Template system, though I don't use note encryption... Link to comment

Is there a way to make a specific note within a notebook private? I have a passcode on the app as a whole, but would love to be able to make a specific note private as well. Is there anyway to do this? I’m on iOS as I’m asking this.
