3 Evernote Staff* Nick L. 610 Posted October 7, 2020 Evernote Staff* Share Posted October 7, 2020 Top list view not available in this release but is coming back in a future update in the next coming days. Stay tuned! 3 6 Link to comment
3 Pinhoti 1 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 PLEASE make returning the Top List View a priority. For a traveling person (laptop) or anyone without a huge screen, this is a greatly missed feature. I'm pretty sure the developers and the software engineers all use screens bigger than anything I have ever owned. Testing major releases with hardware the end users actually have was an early lesson my former employer learned when development was brought in-house a few years. It's a easy mistake to make, but it shouldn't happen a second time. Thank you for the editor improvements. Ditto for the new list management functionality. Finally! 1 Link to comment

1 xmasmoneky 66 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Yup - same issue. This battle was fought when they first came out with Evernote 7. Love the innovation, love the highlighter colors - just need Top View back! 2 Link to comment

Stay tuned! Nick, I have been using evernote for 6 years. This app changed a lot of things for me for the better. I always recommend it to everybody. I am sure you and the staff used a lot of precious time for the upgrade and I believe it was worth it. It makes no sense to me why you deleted top list view from menu since lots of people use it. I have been using it for 6 years and is hard for me to work without it. Link to comment
1 ForumName 0 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I like most things about the new EN (10.1.7), but my workflow is based on the GTD method, and I miss the ability to sort all notes in a notebook by tags. The new EN seems not to order the tags in a note alphabetically any more, and it also seems not have the ability to sort notes in a notebook by tags. Thus, I can no longer sort my todo lists by priority (set using tags). Please bring in the ability to sort by tags into the new version (or provide comparable alternative), asap. Until then, I'm having to work with the legacy version (currently too busy to rethink/reorganize my workflow). Link to comment

0 Andrea Bisiach 16 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 In the "older" version there is an entry "Top list view". Actually very useful since it allows seeing and scrolling the selected note content in full width at the bottom The "new version" forces me to have the not preview on the right and the content is squeezed unless I am working on a wide screen with evernote maximized Link to comment

0 patanne 0 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 i will believe it when the feature is actually back. someone (or group) inside evernote who i hope no longer works there removed top view years ago only to bring it back when the outcry was so large it could not be ignored. this could be a test to see how many people complain.

I remember that. It was removed - but they heard enough users cite exactly why the feature was useful (e.g. full-width note viewing on small screens) and they brought it back. Props to the Evernote team for listening. This time - they have already said it will be supported but is not yet released. I can use v7 until it is ready. I think that is fair. Link to comment

0 CCP7962 0 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 need Top List View back. Thankfully i was able to go back to Evernote Legacy while i search of an Evernote alternative. New version is garbage Link to comment
0 auximage 4 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Did they not learn the first time they removed this that it's a bad idea? Top list view allows users to not have to have a super wide monitor to be able to see all their notes as well as note content. smh Link to comment
0 Nathan T 31 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Not only do we need the top list view back, maybe they could finally incorporate reminders into that view, so we wouldn't have to constantly toggle the view to see the reminders list... 2 1 Link to comment
0 Umberto 2 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Just updated to version 10. Didnt even have time to look at it I lost my favorite way of displaying notes. I usually display the note list on the top, and te actual note at the bottom. In previos version the was an option in "note list view" to do that. Now it disappeared I can only put the note list on the side and the note display on the other side. Is side to side and not top to bottom like I liked it. Any suggestion on how to solve th issue ? 1 Link to comment
0 dvollc 6 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I miss not being able to have a shorter note list with more attributes but wider views of notes. Link to comment

0 harperjdav 2 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hey! BUMP! Come on, man. Now with this latest update you've removed the top list view. At least with that I could have the useless (to me) preview pane at the bottom, where it didn't take so much space away from the note list. Now I have to have it on the right side, where it takes up way too much real estate. Especially for something I NEVER USE! How many times do we have to ask? GIVE US THE OPTION OF HIDING THE PREVIEW PANE! Also, why would you remove the top list view? What was the point of putting out a new release that REMOVES FEATURES? Oh, yay. You've added some slick new things I'll never use. BUT YOU TOOK AWAY THINGS I USE ALL THE TIME. Can we get some response on this? Link to comment
0 PleaseHelpMe 4 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Yup, this update is very disappointing. Top list view and sort by tags are an absolute must. I guess I need to revert :( Link to comment

0 Level 5* gazumped 8,710 Posted November 7, 2020 Level 5* Share Posted November 7, 2020 Hi. A lot of features are temporarily stripped out in the new version. You can get these back by going 'legacy*', but they're -at least temporarily- unavailable in the new app. We don't yet know what's coming back, or in what timescale or order. Sorry. *See: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052560314-Install-an-older-version-of-Evernote Link to comment
0 soyned 0 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 is this gonna be like when you took away the indented code block option a few years ago and then were like NOPE SORRY NEVER COMING BACK here's an idea... don't REMOVE features Link to comment

0 Lyn Hudson-Williamson 0 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 so like everyone else it seem top list view is a must, as a systems tester for many years we never, ever, ever removed features of an application, you only ever improve your product with product enhancement, get it together guys, we need this view to continue to work and be productive.

0 kkarney 1 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Seriously, why would you take the top list view away without warning us pre-upgrade?? Now i have to figure out how to re-install a legacy version. Thanks for wasting a lot of my precious time. Link to comment

0 newterritories 3 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Please please please add top list view asap, Evernote feels unusable without it and I don't have time to restore an older version... Link to comment
0 Daniel Slosberg 2 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I want to add my two cents about restoring top list view. Thankfully, I kept the older version of the app and will use that until top list view reappears. 1 Link to comment
0 ChrisEdwards 0 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I too am looking for the top list. I just wasted 30 minutes trying to find it in the new UI. Finally googled it to find out it was removed I need it as my monitor setup is vertical and there is not enough horizontal space to see the note list AND the note. It simply doesn't work for me. I will be reverting to the legacy version until this is resolved. FYI, Evernote makes me more productive. This is one of the few times it has actually done the opposite. But I am still a fan. Glad the top list is coming back. Link to comment
0 JMac77 1 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Top View is a deal breaker for me. Remember this exact same thing happened with a previous update. Please RESTORE Top View. Link to comment
0 studor 0 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Top View needs to be implemented in windows version as well (I notice that this request is for Mac version...) Link to comment
0 RaleighDC 0 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I am very annoyed after updating. I have been paid customer from early days but find myself searching for other alternatives this morning purely out of frustration of evernote doing this once again. Sort of 101 in releasing software that evernote doesn't seem to get -- don't release updates if you have not ensured existing functions work. And if you are going to deliberately take away a capability, then give the user a warning before they "upgrade" ideally with some alternative. If it is simply that they had to hold the schedule and adding this back in a later rev, then give us a heads up so we just skip the upgrade and wait for the 'complete' version of the upgrade.

0 Borja T 0 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Removing a functionality is never a good idea. Please implement back the Top View. It is crucial to avoid losing real state in your screen and when the last notes are the only ones you want to see. Right now with the multipanel left to right I have to resize back and forth.
