KrisR 1 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I saw this last mentioned in 2009 - and it still hasn't been implemented yet? I can chose "share" on the note, but it sends a link instead of the actual note. Is it really true that you cannot share the contents of a note, just the link? Is Evernote really this far behind on this? I email my grocery lists to my wife who does not have a smartphone - so sending her a link is useless. Please advise if I'm missing something. Or is there a thrid party app that can do this from Evernote lists? Thanks in advance! Link to comment

I wouldn't fancy trying to send a 2MB PDF file or a picture by SMS for instance. And since you can share the note, so someone can view it in a browser, sending the link is often enough. Accepted that a non-smartphone can't see links, you could just copy and paste the contents of the note into your SMS since having access to the note makes no difference - you won't be able to receive any changes / ticks to the list. I don't know of any non-smart-phone apps that would SMS a list offhand. Link to comment
KrisR 1 Posted April 7, 2014 Author Share Posted April 7, 2014 There are a couple that do this now: ColorNote and Extensive Notes Pro can both SMS a list from within their app as text to an SMS recipient. I wanted to be able to get more funcationality out of Evernote and am very surprised to see that this functionality does not exist. What I haven't found is ANY app/service that can sync notes from desktop (or browser) to phone and then SMS a text list. And that is unfortunate. Not everyone has a smartphone. Link to comment
