Password protection for Evernoteon my Mac

[Drzzz 0]

I have a weak password for my Mac, given that I have to access it many times daily. Once inputting that password, I can immediately open Evernote.

However, I have very sensitive information in Evernote on my Mac (local files). Is there a way to require a unique password to open Evernote on my Mac?

Not currently, this has been discussed at some length.

 

Best bet is to use a stronger password for your Mac, lock your machine when you aren't using it and set up a Guest account for the occasions when someone else has to use your machine.

Yup, I agree with Metrodon, and this seems to be the general consensus. Given what Evernote offers on the Desktop in terms of security, securing your user account is really the only sure-fire way of securing the contents of your Evernote application. Thankfully such security measures have many additional benefits. But, until Evernote decides to implement a passcode lock on the desktop, or something similar–IF they choose to–this is all we've got!

Even if you had a PW for EN Mac, the user could easily use Spotlight  to find your EN content.

If you give some thought to it, you should be able to come up with a stronger PW for your Mac that is still easy to remember.
