Sinnary 1 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hello everyone. I'm a new Evernote user and was wondering how to leverage evernote's photographing to enhance productivity to plan my day. I'm a big fan of Evernote's text analysis where one can scan in the weekly planner and have it searchable and receive reminders with simple checks. Does anyone know of a way to photograph a day planner that has printed hours throughout the day and evernote can remind based off the hours it reads on the sheets? Like a way to scan in my notes from a source like this: http://www.sparkproductivity.com/wp-content/uploads/2000/01/action-day-planner-2010-top.pngand have evernote send me reminders throughout my day? It doesn't have to be evernote specifically but rather any app that can do what I'm describing. I'm sure I'm not the only one who prefers the tactile sensation of physically writing in a book to typing or dictating a bunch of reminders into my phone. This post is aimed at the life hacker who appreciates a fine blend of her analog and digital world to maximize efforts in a meaningful way. Thank you for any advice! Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 9,549 Posted September 3, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hi. There's no way that I know of to convert OCR text into a reminder. And Evernote doesn't (yet) do multiple reminders per note. Best I can suggest would be to set a reminder for the earliest event in the note to which you attach the picture of your day plan. When you receive that reminder, reset it for the next event... Link to comment
Level 5 jbenson2 2,138 Posted September 3, 2015 Level 5 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I am 100% digital with my planning, tasks, meetings and appointments.It is more efficient for my needs. But Evernote does offer some analog connections with Moleskin paper planners. For example:http://mymoleskine.moleskine.com/community/evernote.php http://www.moleskine.com/us/news/evernote-planner http://www.moleskine.com/us/collections/model/evernote-smart-notebooks Another concept to consider is GTD (Getting Things Done) with Evernotehttp://lifehacker.com/5892905/the-secret-weapon-combines-gtd-and-evernote-into-one-synchronized-productivity-system https://www.evernote.com/shard/s2/note/1b427c77-84e0-44f0-9636-7c140c89188b/bluecockatoo/EvernoteNotes#st=p&n=1b427c77-84e0-44f0-9636-7c140c89188b Link to comment
Sinnary 1 Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 Thank you for your tips! I guess it isn't reasonable to think evernote is capable of becoming my workspace platform at this point in time. Crossing my fingers for an Evernote Android OS. Haha jbenson, I'll definitely check out Getting Things Done. It's a pretty clever way to get organized. Link to comment
