epeepunk 0 Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 In older versions I was able to identify duplicate notes by sorting by note size. That option is now gone. If it were restored then we all could find and remove duplicate notes. Link to comment

Not hard to find. I've been having a few duplicates, but they have the same title as the original note? To the point that I have to rename at least one of them to differentiate them. But showing 'copy' in the title would at least help, because you could search Intitle:copy to find them. Although they don't happen often (mainly because the iPhone and iPad Evernote is now so slow I don't use it), Evernote has always been quite poor at warning you about them, and then about helping you sort them out. Even the new "Evernote has found a duplicate - click to see it" message is quite awkward. I'm normally reduced to copying each note to a text file and using a Compare program or Excel to find the differences. It would be great if Evernote could do that for us. Link to comment

Not hard to find. To add to this, one could search for "intitle:Copy" and that could help you narrow in on if you have any (unless you use the word "copy" in a lot of the titles of your notes!)
