For some months now I've been implementing the Getting Things Done methodology (GTD). I tried a few different apps, but always kept coming back to Evernote. I've finally got the process humming, and its great. But my one pain point right now is the ease of moving notes between notebooks on my Android.
For context, I have 6 notebooks which act as my various task "buckets". Using the quick note widget, I can spin up a short note and have it added right into my INBOX notebook in a matter of seconds.
It's the triaging process that kills me. Right now to move a note quickly between notebooks I need to do the following:
Find note in notebook
Open note
Tap the ... menu - top right corner
Scroll down on the menu, to MOVE NOTE
Tap move note
Select notebook to move note to
What I would love is a long press functionality that removes steps 2, 3, and 4.
While I'm here, I'll sneak in a cheeky extra request. That you can select if the quick notes widget starts your typing cursor at the note title or the note itself. For my flow, I'd prefer the former. Presently it defaults to the latter.
