Aleksandar 3 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 After updating Evernote for iPad to version 10.50, I have noticed two new icons beside each note. The first one is a downward arrow encircled with a blinking circle of green dots. Another icon is a white downward arrow inside a grey circle, see attachment. Most notes are with the green blinking circle. What do these icon mean? If they are icons showing the sync status, then almost all my notes are not synced! Link to comment
bmcl26 583 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 The green dots indicate that the note is being downloaded to the iPad to be accessed locally at all times, irrespective of connection to the Internet. The Black dot with the down arrow indicates that it has completed the download. I presume you selected download for these files. 1 Link to comment
ForestD 1,545 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 These new icons were introduced at least a couple of months ago. See here for a related thread with more information and discussion: @bmcl26 is right, but I also wonder if there isn't some bug in the latest release as I'm not seeing the green spinning circle go away on several of my notes on mobile just now -- even on small notes with a couple of small images -- and even after I open the note and *see the whole note* just fine on my mobile device -- the green spinning circle remains. (For me, this is with version 10.50.2 on iPhone.) 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,936 Posted April 14, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 14, 2023 You find a pretty good and up to date description of the mobile offline download in this help document: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005177 In general it is worth looking up things in the EN help database. They invest quite an effort into keeping up with app updates and new features. They run a good YT channel as well: https://youtube.com/@evernote 2 Link to comment

Bolaji Odunsi 0 Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I am also experiencing exactly the same problem on my iPad Pro 2024 as in the thread above and repeated here: "@bmcl26 is right, but I also wonder if there isn't some bug in the latest release as I'm not seeing the green spinning circle go away on several of my notes on mobile just now -- even on small notes with a couple of small images -- and even after I open the note and *see the whole note* just fine on my mobile device -- the green spinning circle remains.

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,936 Posted August 16 Level 5 Share Posted August 16 It often takes a lot of time for the last note to download. To shorten this time, set the autolockscreen of the phone to never in settings, display & brightness. Put the phone on a charger while not needed (for example during the night) and keep EN the active app. The toggle for offline download needs to be "on". It will now download continuously.
