Recently while using Evernote on my phone I was told to revoke access from a device. I've used Evernote on more than two but had to swap since my last phone broken and returned another that I didn't like. Recently though I've only been using it on my phone and laptop so I thought this was odd. I go to revoke a device and see that an iphone is somehow accessing my account. I've never owned an iphone and never even used one. I thought it was really odd because it said my account was last accessed about two hours beforehand. I go to check the activity log and see that since April my account has been accessed multiple times (Attached picture). Since then I've enabled two factor, changed password, and forced log out on all devices, if any left.
I'm not really interested in how this happened to be frank. I want to know why I never received any email or notification about any of these because there's a chance this is happening to other people without their knowledge. Thank god I didn't have anything that important in my notes but if I had used this for some genuinely important stuff this could've been miserable for me.
While I'm sure I could get a hole of my account no problem, my password was able to be changed without using my email. Not exactly something I would've liked waking up to
All in all the problem is solved but I'm not feeling to great about using evernote for things now that I have to keep an eye on it every so often.
