Request: Speedier search syntax

[Chaseme 15]

I have a suggestion for improving Evernote clients.

 

I'm a heavy advanced search syntax user to dial in my search queries.

 

For example, say I'm searching for a note in my desktop client that is tagged 'travel' and that is located in my 'offline' notebook, I will type in 'notebook:offline tag:travel <and any other parameter/>'.

 

I'm a quick typer with a physical keyboard, but say I'm doing that search syntax on my iPhone EN client and now it becomes a chore to tap away all those letters.

 

 

My recommendation is for Evernote to add shorthand modifiers to the search syntax.

 

For example:

 

The tag: modifier could be shortened to t: and still function.

 

Others would include:

 

notebook:        n:

 

source:            s:

 

intitle:               in:

 

todo:                do:

 

created:           c:

 

updated:          u:

 

resource:         r:

 

And this would also translate into exclusions:

-tag:                 -t:

 

 

I hope Evernote will consider this; I can't be the only one that finds typing out modifiers to be annoying.
