benmarullo 0 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I'm using Evernote 10.76.2 on Mac, and just today, I noticed the format is completely messed up (see screenshot). Is anyone else experiencing this? This happens every month or so: an update is pushed, a nice UI randomly changes, and all my notes are messed up with unaligned tables. This is NOT happening on iOS or Windows... Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,788 Posted February 23 Level 5 Share Posted February 23 Check the setting for note width in app settings, notes. There are options for fit to screen vs. optimized readability. Try to toggle between the two. Link to comment
benmarullo 0 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 Its set to fit to window, always has been. There are just bugs with the homescreen and other pages - notice the "Ben's Home" text not placed in the banner as it should be Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,059 Posted February 24 Level 5* Share Posted February 24 There's a new version - download from Evernote.com and update. If you're still having issues, contact Support. Link to comment
benmarullo 0 Posted February 24 Author Share Posted February 24 Not fixed - 10.77.3 is the issue. I downloaded from website - nothing Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,788 Posted February 24 Level 5 Share Posted February 24 What is your type of Mac, your screen configuration (multiple screens, resolution ?) and on which version of MacOS are you ? Link to comment
benmarullo 0 Posted February 24 Author Share Posted February 24 13-inch MBP with Apple M1 Chip from 2020 running MacOS 14.3.1. I'm just on the laptop display right now Retina - (2560 × 1600) Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,788 Posted February 25 Level 5 Share Posted February 25 Just tried on my MBP 14" M2 Max, MacOS 14.3.1. On Home some widgets seem to overlay. I can scroll the lower while it is overlaved by another. It is not what I expected, but it is working rather smooth, and feels logical when I use it. So maybe just another effect from the new UI, who knows. Link to comment
plancktime 2 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Hi, I am fed up with Evernote and am looking for a replacement product that will work on Windows, iOS, and MacOS. Does anyone have a recommendation? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,788 Posted March 3 Level 5 Share Posted March 3 Could you explain why you hijack a thread, instead of opening your own ? If you read into the posts in this thread, you see it has only a remote connection to your question. So stop posting where it doesn’t belong. Link to comment
benmarullo 0 Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 @plancktime I am also bothered by how many issues I have with Evernote, but I've been a user since 2012 and have not found a better alternative. Notion could be better, but I haven't tried it out. I think Evernote is great, but constantly fixing what isn't broken is very frustrating. Link to comment
plancktime 2 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 @benmarullo Thanks. I came here for solutions to similar problems but like you am chasing new problems all the time. I’ve been using the product since its inception. Link to comment

Boot17 1,536 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Yeah - that's what I was thinking. I think the initial post is a complaint mostly about the UI revamp, but initially it came across to me as an issue with the software not updating vs a dislike for the UI (of which I have a few complaints myself). @benmarullo - see https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/149750-new-ui-experiences-bad-and-good I'm also still an old version* of Evernote 10 on Windows so I didn't get the UI revamp, but I have it on both my Macs. The UI revamp hasn't come to mobile yet. * Somehow it got stuck on 10.62.5 and I'm going to leave it there for as long as I can 😃 Link to comment

If it's just the new UI, I am not a fan - it looks much worse than before. I've updated it to 10.78.2 and it still looks worse, and my tables are all messed up in every note. 2 hours ago, gazumped said: Yet neither of you has mentioned an actual problem related to the Mac app - which this thread is about.

The problem is the crappy UI update. Your comment is not helpful Link to comment
Boot17 1,536 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 When they rolled out the UI revamp (starting back in like version 10.72 -- but the version wasn't the only thing that mattered, there was a "switch" on the server side that was flipped on accounts gradually over several weeks), they created huge increases in paddings and other issues. https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/149750-new-ui-experiences-bad-and-good/?do=findComment&comment=717680 https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/149750-new-ui-experiences-bad-and-good/?do=findComment&comment=717814 https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/149750-new-ui-experiences-bad-and-good/?do=findComment&comment=718044 All three of those are comments by me with regards to ways the tables were messed up for me. The huge padding has been fixed for me in 10.78.2, but the offset on selecting the rows still persists, but I'm sure they'll fix it at some point. I don't use the "Home" view much so I don't notice what issues for me there would be there. Link to comment
benmarullo 0 Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Sigh. Increased price for pro to $170 and still manage to make it worse... Link to comment
Boot17 1,536 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 The price didn't deter me so much (I'm on at the $129 Personal, but I got it for 40% off this year -- so around $85 I think), but the UI revamp rollout gave me a bit of whiplash and I haven't been too keen on some of the direction and feature implementations in general. Not that they are so bad necessarily, but for me it wasn't as good a fit. But the upcoming collapsible headers and bullet lists and toggle commands are going to be useful for me. The UI revamp got me re-looking heavily into Obsidian again. I still really like Evernote and I think they've fixed the things about the UI revamp rollout that bothered me the most so I'm looking to see how to keep Evernote into my workflow while perhaps using it more as a filing cabinet and using Obsidian for most of the day to day note taking and productivity work. I'm not sure. Link to comment
