Baradisiaque 1 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Hi there, Since last update, passcode option to lock the Android app doesn't appear. I cannot lock the app anymore. Passcode option in no longer in setting list... How do we do to (re)activate the security feature? Thanks 1 Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted July 26, 2023 Evernote Expert Share Posted July 26, 2023 It is temporarily disabled due to a bug in the app. It will be resumed shortly. In the meantime Log Out of the app and use that level of security. 3 Link to comment
naranburu 0 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I am facing the same issue. I am using evernote in Android. And I need the access code. When will this be solved? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,785 Posted July 26, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted July 26, 2023 With one of the next releases. Check on the release notes. P.S. Just out of curiosity: Why do you need it ? Any mobile device is usually protected by a solid access protection. Or do you habitually unlock your phone and hand it to untrustworthy people who have nothing better to do than opening the EN app to watch your content ? The additional security by the passcode is IMHO just an illusion - if the device is properly protected. 1 Link to comment

The additional security by the passcode is IMHO just an illusion - if the device is properly protected. Even having a solid protection in the phone, there're sometimes you (if are a parent) hand the phone to your child to play games, etc. There should be more situations similar to that I'd not like that child to touch/see and accidentally ***** up EN's data in some way, so I think the passcode/biometrics is an awesome solution that I'd not like to see permanently removed from its features 2 Link to comment

Do you have any news when this might be resolved? I am currently running on version 10.52.2 and there's nowhere in my settings menu to even try to add a passcode 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,785 Posted August 13, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted August 13, 2023 The rollout of the update 10.53 has been stopped for performance issues. There will be a revised update, probably in a few days. Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted August 13, 2023 Evernote Expert Share Posted August 13, 2023 As @PinkElephantsays. Meanwhile log out when not using the app to achieve the security of that is what you need. 1 Link to comment

Eroc 0 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Good morning, I haven't found a way on the app or on the web to upgrade to the 10.53.1 version so that I can enable the passcode lock. My evernote still shows that I'm in 10.52.2 version and still don't have the passcode option. For what it's worth, I've been a loyal evernote subscriber for 11 years and don't want to move over to a new platform. Link to comment
Eroc 0 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Fixed it! I just searched the Play Store for "Evernote Update" and it appeared... I'm good to go. Link to comment
