Standard user 0 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 A few months ago Evernote started failing as described on this post, files could not be attached (I have a Note 10 phone as that user, maybe it's not a coincidence). I used to update the app frequently, but the problem persisted for a long time (2 months~). A week ago I came back and it seems like now audios can be recorded, but they are randomly deleted after I save the changes in the note. I haven't found the pattern that's causing this, it just seems to be random. I'm confident to discard the following possible root causes: I have plenty of space in my phone, so it should be possible to save the file locally I'm paying a premium account, so the file limit is higher for me, but even with that, the audios are "small" (around ~15Mb), they are well within the margins of the the established file limits I have enough space left on the cloud (More than 9Gb), so it can't be because I have filled it The app is not being closed afterwards None of the audios are in the thrash I still need to determine if: It's happening both on WiFi and mobile data If it's happening right after saving the note or the precise timing of the event I've been a user for many years now, and it baffles me to hit this bump with a service that has been around for so long (and with something that seems like a basic functionality). I hope the devs can do something about it, audio recording is a very important feature for my work life Phone : Galaxy Note 10+ Evernote version : 10.29 (1121520) Android version : 12 Link to comment

Level 5* gazumped 11,475 Posted March 28, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted March 28, 2022 Hi - around here we're mostly user-2-user, so unless someone else has had and fixed the same issue you won't get much of a response. I'd suggest raising this with Support for more action... Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 7,818 Posted March 29, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Why, oh why ... ? EN invests a lot of work into their help database. It is there to be looked up. If we do, we read this: Warning: If your audio recording on a mobile device ... surpasses the total note size limit, your note will not sync to Evernote. This means: No matter how much memory there is on a mobile device - once the audio recording surpasses the note upload limit, it is deleted. Gone. Lost. On v10 desktop it is possible to save the audio recording - not so on mobile. It is fairly easy to reach the upload limit of only 25MB on a Free account. It is still within reach on a subscription account as well, where the limit is 200MB. Audio simply takes up a lot of memory. Even when within of the note size limit, when the total limit for the month is reached, it will be deleted as well. No sync = audio is lost. As a workaround EN itself proposes in the help article to use another app for the recording, tailor it to size (maybe reduce the bit rate to shrink it), attach it to a note and sync it that way.
