Help me revert to version 8.12

[John in Michigan USA 129]

I just updated to EN for Android 8.13.2 and it broke saved searches (again!). I get out of date results. Pixel 2 XL, Android 10. I've tried the usual work-arounds like re-starting my phone, re-installing EN, un-syncing my notebook and re-syncing it. The problem goes away for a little while but inevitably re-appears.

I was running 8.12.x (I forget the exact version) for months without this problem.

Could someone from EN please post a link to an *official*, evernote-hosted copy of the .apk for the final release of 8.12. I am aware of services like filehippo  https://androidapksfree.com/evernote/com-evernote/ that offer apk's for previous versions, but I have no way of knowing if they've altered the app.

Thank you.

add link to corrected site (not filehippo that's just for Windows downloadables)

Alternate sources of unofficial, possibly insecure apk's. I extracted these from past posts to the EN forums, so these are links that EN users have used successfully in the past. YMMV.

Hmmn.  Don't think there has ever been a 'direct' link to an Android update - they seem to get spread around by the Play store and routine app updates.  I totally understand your reluctance to install from a non-Google source,  but that may be your only option if you want to step back here...

Yet another alternate source of unofficial APKs. Hat tip: @gazumped

I wonder if someplace in the Google app store terms & conditions there's a line that says something like, developers agree to distribute their apps exclusively via Google app store. This means developers cannot offer the APK for download from the developer's web site. Google wants the developer to drive traffic to them.
