PastorJosh 9 Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I know it has been posted but there are so many who have ask for tabs to be brought back. I hate paying for the service and having to use legacy to serve my needs. why do we need tabs- 1- it is how we operate our workflow 2- we have multiple projects going 3- we ask for it after it was taken from us please we beg you Evernote. I’m almost at the point to switch to just get what I am needing. 7 Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 2,573 Posted February 18, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted February 18, 2022 If you want Evernote staff to hear your ideas then you need to use a story ticket or the feedback option in the applications. We are just fellow users so no influence or response. It is true, though, that EN v10 did demand changed workflows. I decided If make it work for me and within a week or two I became settled with the changes. Note I don't remember the workflows I used with the old Evernote. If you need specific things and Legacy still provides them then you've got time to make a plan for the future. If that demands tabbed working then unless you can wait and see if it comes, you need to be making a plan for an alternative. Link to comment
PastorJosh 9 Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 Thank you. I have made a ticket but i will try the feedback. I have tried the new one and yes it works but i go back and forth on one screen so much it is difficult.. old dog new tricks i guess. I used another software for years before Evernote that i used tabs and the only way I could transition was the tabs- over 10 years for me. I am using the legacy now, it is just frustrating all the other features i am missing. Thank you. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 6,754 Posted February 18, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted February 18, 2022 For me it works pretty well to open notes in their own window. It is easier to arrange them side by side or as a mosaic, for example to move content among them. This is not a 1:1 replacement for tabs, but in some aspects it works even better for me. 1 Link to comment

This is what Windows users have always done as we have never had the "essential" tabs feature. 1 Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 2,573 Posted February 19, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted February 19, 2022 And I suspect that the absence in Windows is one of the reasons it is missing in v10. The parity of features is one of the key aims of v10. Import folders were originally going to be deprecated since they were a Windows only feature. So generate enough support and perhaps tabs will arrive/return. 1 Link to comment
Cuckoo Lala 0 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 The other reason we need tabs and notebook in a notebook feature is because this is a note taking app. I don't need all the task business. I handle those elsewhere. It's called EverNOTE, not EverTASK Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 2,573 Posted September 7, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted September 7, 2022 As noted the Tabs feature was a Mac only thing in the past. It did not transfer to v10 - presumably to bring parity of features across the various OS versions. I've no idea why it wasn't a Windows feature but perhaps it is difficult to implement in Windows making it something that isn't offered any longer. Whatever, be sure to register your need with Evernote support via the Feedback or support ticket as well as here. Perhaps explain why you need this for note taking rather than, for example, opening notes in separate windows. Link to comment

It was just similar to a tab in a browser. You could get another "main" view of Evernote with side bar and filtered list. It wasn't an actual tab in a notebook or anything... Link to comment
idoc 327 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I think that you can do this pretty easily if you are using EN web. You can take anything eg: a notebook, a note etc and make it into a browser tab. You can even permanently pin it to your browser address bar. I am not a mac user and therefore never even knew about this "tab" feature that you mention. However, I agree that it is a useful feature and I have used it with EN web. Link to comment
Joe F 7 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 The best way to explain the functionality and advantage of Evernote tabs is to compare them to browser tabs, which replaced opening multiple windows. Reducing clutter is an important part of my workflow. I have mimicked the effect of switching between different notebooks in the Evernote sidebar, and it is not the same as switching between tabs. Right now, I have tabs open in Evernote Legacy, and the efficiency is MUCH better than the new version. I simply cannot quit Evernote Legacy until it is permanently removed. 1 Link to comment
PastorJosh 9 Posted June 20 Author Share Posted June 20 I too am using legacy for that reason. 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 6,754 Posted June 20 Level 5 Share Posted June 20 ... which is only true for Mac users - Windows legacy never had tabs. For compensation Windows legacy had Import Folders, not available for Mac legacy. This simple example shows why it was completely illusionary to bring the legacy hodgepodge to a common level, ever. You could not even share code between the Windows and Mac apps - Windows legacy running on 32bit code, which on Macs since 2020 will not even execute, even if the code itself could be made executable. Tab lovers can try to use the v10 web client - it allows for tabs. Link to comment
vanderbo 0 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Could you explain how to use tabs in the v10 web client? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 6,754 Posted June 27 Level 5 Share Posted June 27 Sure: Open several sessions of the web client in your browser. Each session will show in its own tab and can be used independently. This feature is not supported in Safari. You need to use a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome. Link to comment
