Longtime paying evernote customer first time submitter. I've noticed a few things over the past year as it relates to the web clipper I wanted to bring up:
On android, i can go to a web page or app, and the clipper spins and spins for 3+ minutes never successfully clipping the info on the screen. This is a similar experience on chrome when I go to the nytimes cooking site and plan my menu for the week. I clip the recipe I'm choosing and then it spins for over 45 seconds, but in the case of chrome, it actually finally works.
The option to clip a "simplified" version on chrome no longer works as well as it used to specifically on the cooking.nytimes.com website. This may be a nytimes change that caused this, but when I clipped it, I could use the "Clip simplified article" to cut out all the ads and superfluous info on the page and return the core content; however it can no longer do it. Additionally it always picks the wrong picture for the hero image on the note. Even though the first and most prominent image is the picture of the dish, it always picks their generic food image much further down after the recipe that has nothing to do with the article. This never used to happen but now happens every time. I then come into the note, hit the magic wand button to convert the note to text, and delete all the other images and superfluous text...several added steps that I historically didn't have to do.
I've loved Evernote for a long time and view your web clipper as one of the core reasons I stick with you all in addition to your scanner integration. If you can help with these improvements it would be so helpful! Thank you!
