3 Artair 5 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Quite a no go in software development in my opinion. No prior warning and no possibility - was far as I know - to switch back to pre V10 with Apple Watch support. What the ++++ really? My wife literally bought an Apple Watch 10 days ago mainly for quick note tacking in Evernote without having to use her smartphone every time in front of your small daughter. Should the now best Cancel premium and send back the watch? Do you have any eta on the new watch os App for Evernote? 5 2 Link to comment
3 Steve Riches 6 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I have the same question. I updated yesterday and just went to add a note on my Apple Watch to find the Evernote app had disappeared. Very disappointing that there was no warning. I have been a premium member since 2013, but I am seriously thinking of switching to another program with Apple Watch support if this isn’t added back soon. 4 1 Link to comment
1 Metazine 1 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 As tasks is being developped more and more by EN, I would like to have the ability to add them by voice on the Watch. It would be very useful (I already use it on another app called Nozbe and it works perfectly with an complication). If EN can add this when they will restore the Watch app... 1 Link to comment

The reason is probably much simpler: The new clients both for desktop and mobile are offering a unified experience. Good for starters, but they axed ALL special devices support to make this happen. The Watch app disappeared, the iPad is not supported, same with pen devices on the Android side, and Windows tablet users have a problem because the desktop app is not provisioning for the use of a pencil or a touchscreen . This is the base line: An app build for a unified experience, avoiding all platform specific properties. Not unfounded Podcaster gossip … "probably much simpler?" sounds like unfounded gossip too wouldn't you say? I was looking to spark a discussion and see if there were any other sources for why the EN app hasn't returned. I too am frustrated as I used the app on my watch. You don't need such negativity when we are in this together. This is the source/podcast that I was listening to if you are invested in the full context I was trying to convey. https://9to5mac.com/2022/01/11/apple-watch-apps-abandonment/ Link to comment

Yes, it has complications. And it has widgets for the iPhone/iPad home screen as well. But the app is really just for creating notes, it does not display notes. The Apple Watch app is very simple. As soon as it has been opened you can use the watch default input to put in text (dictation, scribble or the mini keyboard on Series 7). The input note is then automatically saved in the default notebook of Evernote. That's all. As far as I know this is the only existing and working Evernote Apple Watch app. BTW, all this was already discussed in that thread: https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/141439-apple-watch-shortcut/ Link to comment
0 Sayre Ambrosio 525 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I will chime in here with the addition of the iMessage feature being gone is not cool either. I know that they will probably be coming in a future update, but as others have said in the thread, there should have been a warning for sure. I use EN on my watch all the time for quick audio notes I share with my medical team. So much easier than typing especially since I have an issue with hand tremors as of late. When I realized it was gone I had to come up with a quick workaround until more information is shared about the fate of those two features. I have replaced the Evernote complication on my watch with Voice memos and at the end of every day I figure I'll just go through and catalogue them and send a copy to EN. 2 Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted September 17, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted September 17, 2020 As a workaround: Try JustPressRecord. Works fine on the watch and other I-devices. It has a very good transcription (even for non-English users) and allows to keep the original audio file plus the transcription side by side. This is helpful if for example you dictate something and want to be able to go back to audio to check on the transcript later. Sometimes you may dictate something critical, like exact numbers and want to double check. It moves content to EN by sharing ! 2 Link to comment

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted September 23, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted September 23, 2020 It is not what I expect, but it happened with other apps as well when they had a major release. Probably easier to sort it out without another client spooking around. Watch clients are usually depending on the iOS client of the same app, only a few are truly independent. Link to comment

0 arbouretum 0 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Totally agree. Very disappointed with Evernote so called upgrade. What was wrong with the prior version that needed to be overhauled? I used Evernote on Apple Watch frequently. It was a complication on my watch face. Now it's gone. I subscribed to another service. I have been a premium Evernote subscriber for several years and would hope not to leave them behind. What are they doing? Link to comment
0 RoamingNick 0 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 As a fallback/alternative, so far I am finding OneNote works quite well on the Watch. In particular, it supports more/better formatting and longer text blocks. Link to comment
0 SteveRacer 7 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Onenote does not have a complication that I could find. I've replaced the Elephant with the Bear and the complication is flawless. I cannot fathom how software I am PAYING for on a subnscription basis has major features deactivated behind my back without warning. Really? Whoever released v 10 as an Alpha with gutted features needs to be taken out back. Absolutely criminal denial of use with no rollback recourse on iOS. All I need now is a way to export EN to Bear. Shame on you. ***** treatment of loyal customers. 2 Link to comment

0 patrickclery 4 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Apple Watch is my main way of capturing ideas into my inbox. Without a smooth flow of idea captures, Evernote becomes less appealing if I must jump through third-party apps to make my flow work. Just my opinion, but it ruins the brand when the app tries to force us to use this versatile platform in a non-versatile way. 2 Link to comment

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted November 1, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Initial remark: Better change your forum user to one that does not contain your e-mail. It is known that bots roam public places to harvest mail addresses, for Spam and worse. About using JPR : Dictate a note on the watch It will sync with the iPhone. Open it there. Share it to EN. You can choose to share the text (transcript), the audio or both. You can open the note in EN then, for further use. This is what was better with the EN app for the watch: You could send it right away into EN. Thus JPR is IMHO a workaround, not a replacement. Waiting for EN to bring a watch app back.

0 StarlightSammy 4 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 At PinkElephant's suggestion, I tried the app JustPressRecord.

0 SteveRacer 7 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Class Action comes to mind, or maybe 100 annoying small claims filings. This was an intentional removal of features we paid for, with no way to avoid the "upgrade". iWatch functionality was promised four updates ago. Link to comment

Going on 9+ months - here's the Horsefeathers response I got: (BTW - Zoho Notebooks has just about every feature I liked about the older version of Evernote, and even has a migration utility! And yes, iWatch compatibility including a complication and Siri shortcuts. For the incredibly high price of . . . FREE !) And here is how EN responded to to my support ticket: Roden D. (Evernote Help and Learning) Jun 11, 2021, 0:14 PDT Hi there, Thank you for contacting Evernote Customer Support. I understand that you are looking for the iWatch, or as I understand, the Apple Watch feature of Evernote for iOS. We still haven’t yet built Apple Watch support into the new Evernote for iOS, but it's near the top of our list. We know how important this feature is and will be including support for it in a future release. We really apologize for this matter. I understand you'd like to go back to using the older version of Evernote. Unfortunately, if you've already updated the app, there's no way to reinstall the older version. The new Evernote app offers many new features and functionality, including: · Improved note formatting and consistency across apps · Faster, easier search · Improved reliability and stability using the newest versions of Evernote We truly believe this is the best version of Evernote yet. If you're having trouble with the new app, I'd be happy to help troubleshoot with you so you can get back to being productive with Evernote. We really appreciate your understanding regarding this matter, and I understand that frustration. Please let me know if you have other questions, and concerns. Warm regards, Roden D.

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted June 19, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted June 19, 2021 The disappeared watch widget had the function to grab a quick note, and view (restricted by the small screen) some notes. Yes, I would like to get it back, but it hardly makes a big difference. I don’t even remember if it was a Premium feature. To quickly grabby note on the watch there is a number of options, from build into the OS ‚til purchased for a small fee. I use JustPressRecord that cost 4,99€ one time when I bought it. 1 Link to comment
0 RoamingNick 0 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 It now is farcical that they keep giving us 'features' that I immediately disable on the iOS app (various widgets, etc.) yet still have not restored Watch support. If they could simply say 'nope, not coming back' that would be fine, we all can move on to Keep or OneNote or whatever. But this year-long silence is ridiculous. I would not at this point recommend Evernote to a friend or family member (i.e. negative NPS). Link to comment

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted August 28, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted August 28, 2021 EN currently adds features that work on all devices of a use type, say on mobile or on desktop. They have not yet started to add device specific features, like special support for iPadOS or the Apple Watch. Looking at that, it is probably not around the corner. But on the other hand a Watch app was mentioned by EN somewhere, so maybe they just release it one day, as a byproduct. Link to comment

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted August 28, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Sure it is - EN had more releases in the last 12 months than probably in the 5 years before. Little wonder they probably run an impressive backlog list. Link to comment

0 macneilpi 34 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I was recently listing to a Podcast that discussed that several companies have pulled WatchOS versions of their apps because "that isn't what people are using their watches for" and they specifically mentioned EN as one of the companies. I would agree that EN Apple Watch users are not a huge percentage of the population. I thought the app was pulled to get it ready for Tasks and Calendar, but I'm almost certain that it isn't coming back. Did anyone else get surveyed as to how they use EN for Apple Watch?

0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,755 Posted February 13, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Up to now they have not coded a single thing for mobile that was not platform uniform. Which is incorrect, since EN just launched widgets for the Android Home Screen. But this is the first exception. I do not expect a watch app to be the next. Hopefully the next will be widgets for iOS. For me it would be more important if shortcuts would be enabled for EN again than getting a tiny piece of app for the watch. At least this is what they removed, it really was not that much, no rocket science for sure. 1 Link to comment
0 aaronbrownsound 2 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I was initially upset I couldn't use Evernote on my brand new watch SE, but after trying Just Press Record as mentioned above I'm quite happy and find it's perfect for a watch app. The iPhone app then translates the Just Press Record recordings and can share the transcription and recording to evernote immediately. On the watch you just tap a red button, speak, and you're done. On your iPhone you open the app, click the Watch icon, choose the recording, share transcript and recording, add title, choose notebook, add tags done. It's automatically transcribed and you share both to Evernote. Hope that's helpful to anyone.

To add to the things missing: The Apple Watch App. I used it all the time whenever I wanted to quickly capture something without pulling my phone out.
I noticed that even without having checked out everything else, because it is completely gone from my watch.
