torep 1 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I recently started using Evernote with my android device, I have the latest version from Android Market. While the notes sync ok, a lot of my notes contain images and these are not synced, the first time I open them my phone connects to the internet to download the image. After the first time I open a note I can then see the image when completely offline - I presume this is because it is then cached? Problem is that I am not allways at places where I can be connected (ICU, aboard airplanes), and to go through and open all notes to download the images to my device is a lot of work.Is this a known issue with the android client? Is there any way to fix this?- Tor PRunning evernote for android 2.6.1 Link to comment
BurgersNFries 2,407 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I think the Android app works similarly to the iPhone app in that in order to store notes locally on your device, you must be a premium user. Then, as a premium user, the way it works on the iPhone is that you go into the EN settings screen & select which notebooks you want to be stored "offline" & sync, when you have an internet connection.

Level 5* jefito 5,588 Posted May 22, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted May 22, 2012 Syncing is different on the mobile clients than it is on the desktop. If you sync, that does not mean that you necessarily have all notes and their content loaded onto your device; it means that you have a certain amount of note information for each note loaded on your device. That content is usually loaded on demand (you need to be connected to the internet), though it may get cached on the device, in which case it will be available for some amount of time, but may disappear from the cache if the system needs space for something else. This makes sense: if you have a multi-gigabyte note database, then you probably do not have enough space on your mobile device to contain it all.Evidently, search information is included with the note metadata now, so that you can do offline searching. That is not the same as having the actual note content available. For example I have a number of PDF files as attachments. I can search while I am offline, and search finds items that are contained in the PDFs, even though the PDF itself is not actually downloaded to my device. I find the note, and click on the PDF, and get the "You are not connected to the Internet" message. This is by design, and not a bug. The PDF file is not on my device, but its search information is.Premium users can designate specific notebooks to be always available, even when you are offline. If you have an offline notebook, its contents are synced to the device. Link to comment
