5 Bernard9 7 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I registered here just to make a comment. I've been on Evernote Premium since 2015 and taken thousands of notes. It is really mind boggling how this has not yet been implemented as it seems to be such an easy to do and integral feature. Ability to collapse large bodies of text or even files would complete Evernote for me. This feature alone made me shift some of my productivity efforts to Notion and ClickUp more recently and I keep looking for alternatives just because it's so frustrating to scroll through massive amounts of text/tables/files to see the main sections of the note. ClickUp does this decently well and Notion is also a good contender. I still prefer Evernote as my main place for notes and many other things just mostly due to habit I guess. How hard is it to add this? Seen the thread since 2011 with tons of upvotes. Honestly, makes me think Evernote team just ignores their users wishes which is sad to see when apps like ClickUp add tens of updates weekly based off user feedback. 5 Link to comment

I thought only a normal toggle list (non collapsible) was possible... You are not alone. many of us would like to see collapsible sections added to Evernote. Workflowy is a nice app and would give you an immediate work around if you need that ability now, but it requires you to store notes in two apps and search both unless you go through the bother of exporting one and storing it into the other. IMO this is a more useful feature than the recently added cross out list feature, and Evernote went through the time and effort to add that. Including this should be considered also. This is becoming a standard feature in Evernote‘a competitive space. 4 Link to comment

And I seriously thought about moving to notion just because of the unfolding lists. Like spoilers. I think this feature is added at the click of a finger. If the programmers are smart.

In my work I want to be able to search through them quickly, attach every type of document (pdf, ppt etc) but also want to have a clear overview of each note via collapsible toggles. I think evernote should really put more effort into improving its hierarchical structure outside and inside a note, in order to keep up with the user- friendliness of its competitors. Of course you could suggest that there are other apps on the market for this feature, but I find that for example an app like Notion does not have the capability of searching as quickly as evernote does, and also this app cannot store all type of documents. And ofcourse, I would really like to stay with evernote after all those years, but workflows are evolving... 1 Link to comment
2 SchalkPienaar 1 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I agree. Having used Notion a little this is for me by far one of the most useful features. Would love something similar within Evernote. 1 Link to comment

2 LateToTheGame 31 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 True, but it's just too painful to build links on a mass scale, whether it be for flash cards or organizing thoughts and notes.

1 aukirk 368 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 This discussion under the Windows Requests forums is a duplicate of this long-standing feature request that has 627 "votes" and has been hanging around since 2011. I am in the camp with @s2sailor and can't see any logical reason why a user of Evernote would be opposed to this. I see them working very similar to the new "draggable" blocks in the editor, but allowing the option to collapse them. Another alternative way this could be implemented would be to add another element to the "Insert" (Blue +) for a collapsable section. Similar to adding a code block, you could highlight the section you want to make part of a collapsable section and add the block from the insert menu to provide a section of content that can be expanded or collapsed... ideally when collapsed it would display the first line of the text within the section. While it may be delusional thinking since this has been on the wish list since 2011... but I remain optimistic that this is one of the big features on the roadmap for post-v10. However, the fact that it was not added to the editor with highlighters, check lists, etc. seems to suggest that this may be incompatible with the old editors... meaning that maybe it will be hung up until they get everyone off of the legacy versions. And there are a LOT of other more pressing items they need to address before they can phase out the legacy apps... so this may still be a long way off. 5 Link to comment

Thank you! Link to comment
1 LateToTheGame 31 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 +1 for toggles in Evernote. I use Workflowy and Notion. The most useful feature in both of these Apps in my opinion is toogles. Toogles encourage building a single comprehensive note on a topic. Toogles would help Evernote transition from an excellent resource manager to an excellent and modern note taking application. The other thing that will help this transition (announced but not yet released by Evernote) is a quick way to create links (and hopefully backlinks) by drag and drop between notes. For students (and we're all lifelong students), toggles are great flashcard alternative (think RemNote without spaced repetition). 1 Link to comment

1 notesandboats 0 Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 I've been an avid Evernote user with thousands of notes to my name. I'd love to see this feature! Collapsible toggle list for items/tasks would make navigating notes with multiple lists much more fluid and efficient. I've been exploring Notion and Workflowy as alternatives, but I'm wary about the transition, given my vast collection of notes and links. I genuinely value Evernote and feel that some enhancements, especially considering the recent price bump, would keep it at the top of its game compared to competitors. Hopefully Evernote staff prioritizes this. Link to comment

I currently use Workflowy for collapsible lists, and find that I can jump seamlessly from one app to the other with note links (EN) and internal links (WF). Workflowy has this, and some other advantages over Evernote, but sucks when it comes to embedded document files. So Evernote is my 'bulk' long-term storage and WF is a combination index and temporary notepad. (It's also where I keep my boiler-plate answers to Evernote queries to avoid problems if my Evernote is down!) I don't know why Evernote hasn't added this feature - I'm sure the old team had their reasons (or other priorities) but the new owners of Evernote have only had some months to get to grips with some issues, and I'm sure they will look at this again - just not yet... 1 Link to comment
1 Kyle Erik 0 Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Hello Evernote team, In the past, I've really struggled to keep my virtual notes organized. Thanks to Evernote, that's no longer the case. I've become a huge fan and an avid user. Like others, I do believe that adding a collapsible list/content feature would be a massive benefit! Thanks for the consideration. Link to comment
1 GiantSanta 0 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Wow this Thread has been ongoing for about 2 years now.

The more notes I collect, the more I need to neatly organise them. Fingers Crossed that the Evernote Team reads these comments and requests. Link to comment

I thought only a normal toggle list (non collapsible) was possible... My point was that fully-featured note list apps already exist, and are quite easy to use - why should Evernote spend a great deal of time, effort and testing on shoe-horning something into Evernote and changing the menus (again) that a stand-alone app will always be better for? And before you add that it's better to have the whole process in one app than have to shift to another - what about mind-maps / spreadsheets / databases / image editors / email clients etc etc... we all use several apps during the day and what brings them all together is the device you use them on. 2 Link to comment

My family are not overly technical or organised and if it should happen that I'm not around to explain where (forinstance) the user guide for the continuum transfunctioner is filed, they probably would never find it. So the names of all my notebooks are in Workflowy, with explanations of what goes in there. It's a full 'family user' guide (which is easier to access) with links to notebooks like |UserGuides which lives in Evernote. Likewise I have a long list (50 or so) of twitter tags for a website I help administer which is easier to edit and copy from in WF - under the notebook name of that particular project. If you are planning to use WF to any great extent you should have a look at WFx* -which adds shortcuts and keystroke commands- plus there are various apps that are available - including a clipper. * Wfx Chrome - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wfx-for-workflowy/jbehgpdjkcconnaagjhddddfdajbpfhi 2 Link to comment

To navigate everything, a TOC note can be added, holding the links to the question-cards. Link to comment

As a 12 years Evernote fan, I confirm that Evernote is only missing 4 main features to remain on the top of it's category If you mean my point - I don't dispute that Evernote doesn't (currently) 'do' any of that, but asking them to add some features is like asking Lego to make the bricks smoother - they were designed with bumps for what seemed excellent reasons at the time and everything in the design and production pipeline is making use of that feature. If you change that one aspect you basically have to redesign the whole thing from the ground up - again. 2 1 Link to comment

IMHO--which (IMHO) ought to be prefixed to every statement about what Evernote "needs" to do to get it right. 3 Link to comment

Really no double posts please... I answered here -and we're mainly users in the Forums. Feedback via the mobile apps or Support to talk to Evernote - but I'd guess the answer will be "maybe".

0 JackSprat 0 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Yeah, this needs to happen. My employer requires me to use Notion to collaborate with coworkers and building toggle lists there then coming back to Evernote for my personal organization without the ability really sucks. Things get too long too fast. Link to comment

0 kguske 2 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Thank you, Frédéric and Evernote. I'm not sure how I missed this as I review the release notes for each upgrade - patiently waiting for years for this... I'm not sure what to do now (edit: looks like only the top level can be collapsed, but that's still a huge benefit) 1 Link to comment

0 Level 5* gazumped 12,057 Posted April 12 Level 5* Share Posted April 12 As far as I can see multiple Large headers can hide content with individual Medium and Small headers right on up to the maximum note size limit. The only drawback may be in display speed, though that was, I believe, under review... (Huge notes are slower than small notes) -And with the usual caveat that having all your intellectual eggs in one basket can be risky... Link to comment

Hey Evernote,
I really would like a collapsible toggle list (like a toggle list in Notion). That would give a lot more structure in making notes!
Is there something like this coming up in future versions?
