Helpful. On 9/12/2019 at 6:57 AM, DTLow said: It's an extra step but the Safari icon is in the top right corner; an easy click Not helpful. Is it "easy" when you have to do it over 100 times in a session? No. If it were that "easy" I wouldn't have needed to post the question. Your factual information is helpful and appreciated. Your opinions are not. Once again Evernote fails at the basics. Every other app I have that includes a built-in browser also offers a way to bypass it. I have several of them. But Evernote? No. Of course not. Link to comment
Cheese Patrol 0 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I'm surprised that there's only one topic about this. Really wish there was an option to bypass the built in browser. Yes, you can tap on the Safari icon to open it, but this is problematic with certain URLs, such as verification links which may throw an error since the link was already opened in the embedded browser. The only good alternative in this case is to copy the URL, manually open Safari, then paste it. Can we submit feature requests somewhere? Link to comment
jimmert248 0 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Just found this and completely agree with OP. I'm trying to increase my Evernote usage again after trying different tools and I can't even get a link to a Google Sheet to open in the Google Sheets app on my iPhone. It just opens to the Evernote default browser and then opens up in Chrome if I click the "browser button". This is the only app I have that does this. Link to comment
ajg23 21 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Yes, this is unacceptable. The user cannot continue to use Evernote if a link is clicked Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 4,032 Posted June 20, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted June 20, 2021 You can open the link in Safari and continue in EN - but it is a process that takes several clicks to move the session into Safari. If you prefer another solution, you should get in contact with support. Link to comment
