EvernoteSucksForever 0 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I am desperate to get my notes out of Evernote so I can start using another program as Evernote has become the bane of my life!!! I have been trying fr months to export all notes but it seems they have made it impossible to do in the web version. I am not "allowed" to use the desktop because apparently I have used up my two "free" unsyncs for this month. So now I am faced with the option of actually PAYING Evernote (vomit) for a month's premium membership, just so I can get my notes and get Evernote out of my damn life.Ā However - when I last unsynced, I am sure I saw a message saying that with two devices synced (web and phone) I could sign out of one (eg phone) in order to be able to sign into another. Is that not the case? Alternatively is there aĀ way to export my notes from the ios App?Ā 1 Link to comment

(rant goes on) You donāt really expect an elaborate answer now ? My mother told me the 2 most powerful words on earth: āPlease ā¦ā and āThank you ā¦ā. To me it seems you failed on both chances simultaneously - quite a challenge, but you made it. If you want to do a volume export, you can only do it through a desktop client. And if you are on Free and already used up your 2 unsyncs, you either will need the patience to wait for 30 days until it unlocks by itself, or purchase the unlocking key by a month of subscription.

Again, here Evernote very deceptive though - as you are going through the unsync process, Evernote's wording clearly implies that you will be able to use another device if you simply sign out on one of your exisitng devices. The article above makes it clear that this isn't actually the case.Ā Link to comment
