I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I've been using Evernote on a Kindle Fire for a while, and yesterday a new UI "arrived" - at least I don't recall being asked to install a new version. It's v5.9.1.
At first I thought "great", because the overall page looks much cleaner and the reminders at the top of each page look really good. However, on scrolling down to the non-remindered tasks, the changes are not so great...
I have three related problems with the new UI:
1. You can no longer choose between list view and snippet view - or if you can, I can't find it
2. The different sorts now seem to default to either list view or snippet view. I sort by notebooks all the time, and this produces a list view, with any tag details appearing halfway along the line and cropping the note title
3. The effect of these together is that I can now only see one or at best two words of the title for most of my notes.
This is useless for me, as it means that I have to open every note to know what it is. Has anyone else found this, and has anyone found a way around it?
BTW I use Evernote primarily for GTD and use TSW so not being able to quickly scan through all of my tasks renders it pointless as a productivity tool. I can't imagine that it doesn't impact negatively on other uses of Evernote as well though.
If it needs further clarification I'll try to get a screen grab from the Kindle but I'm hoping other people will have seen this on other devices.
