New update is not good.


Recommended Posts

I hope someone from Evernote sees this and takes note because this is causing me to really reconsider my subscription especially with the price hike. Worse product + price increase means I am currently seeking out alternatives.

Let me preface: I was a HUGE Evernote fan. I basically replaced all of my old Pages docs with this around 10 years ago and have been exclusive to the app ever since, I loved the layout and the convenience and the cloud-based service... but now this update has messed up the fonts and layout, which I spent hours and hours editing, photos are not showing up randomly (coming up as 'untitled attachment') and the ones that do are all messed up, formats are wonky and it overall just looks bad. And now I can only open 20 notes at a time when I am used to having more than that open (it's a problem I know, but it's just how I work - and I liked that Evernote let me do that!). What exactly am I paying for here, if not an inferior product than I'm used to? This makes me so sad. I get that they may be trying to copy Notion with some of the editing options... but I got Evernote because it was Evernote! Now I feel just so bummed out from this. I wish there was a way I could get the old version back.

How has it messed up the fonts?

My guess is that it's related to that Legacy let you choose any font on your system.

It hasn’t messed up the fonts, the old fonts are simply not available any more in the new app. Which is not the same, but has the same effect.

Those users who just jotted down their stuff probably won’t even notice. Those who meticulously crafted the design of their notes are in for a hard conversion - like it or not

It all has been discussed 3 years ago when v10 launched.

Welcome to the forums. They are almost entirely user-to-user. To address Evernote directly: feedback@evernote.com. When you say "this update," do you mean v. 10 in contrast to v. 6, or a specific recent update to v. 10? Knowing that can help your fellow-users offer (potentially) more helpful advice.
