I'm being prompted to log in multiple times per day, as of maybe yesterday. Cleared cache, cookies, etc. There's no option to remain logged in. I am, and this is one reason why being logged out and demanding a new login is so troublesome -- I have to drop everything and spend a minute getting the 2FA code. I'm running Chrome on a Chromebook, and the web client is necessary -- Android apps are prone to crashing on ChromeOS.

When you go into: Check Settings > Application for 'check spelling'... if it is checked... un-select it and select it again. This fixed it for me.

Weird. These are relative sizes depending on the screen resolution. It's on my 4k display, driven by my MacBook Pro. When I change the display resolution, relative sizes are following the setting. The smaller the values get, the larger is the display size. 1.600 equals 20cm from the symbol to the period, 2.560 13cm, 3.840 8cm. As described the quality of the screen content is not altered, just the size.

This video describes some of the reasons behind their change. To suggest a startup option you should contact them at feedback@evernote.com

I have a Wacom Tablet & Stylus, which I can use for handwritten Notes, but I usually prefer to use Rocketbook for the few Handwritten notes I save.

If investigating other apps, I would suggest checking out Nebo as well.

Embedded comments are typical for apps that create an "official" document, and allow to embed comments. The official document will not show the comments on exporting or printing (unless it is specified), it will only print the official part. MS Office does it, iWorks and LibreOffice as well, and probably others. EN is a note app, not build to create "official documents". A note is a website, not a page mimicking word processor (or similar, spreadsheets or presentations are even further away). It never had such a feature in 1 1/2 decade, and I doubt it will get it in the nearer future. There is a simple option to get them: Use an app and collaboration where comments are available, then save it into a note.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Sadly, it didn’t work. I increased the resolution to 1280x832, the next size up. Nothing changed. I selected the last option, 1024x66, and was warned that this would not allow the entire page to be displayed.

As told I just get a shareable link. Further the handwriting in AN is embedded into a text based note, similar to EN. Goodnotes has a canvas that mimics a real page, and is graphical from scratch. Text is overlayed as a text box. For handwriting or sketching it is the better approach.

Some like it, some don't. Actually the new mobile GUI is better adapted to the smaller, portrait pointing screens of a phone. Probably whatever they do to improve, they will be met with "but I liked the old look better". That's ok, but leaving everything to be customizable is no solution either.

This looks like a pretty fine screen resolution. I would increase the size by lowering screen resolution. The Mac will use the screens abilities to show everything with full details, but enlarge the presentation. Go to the Macs system settings, Displays. Probably 1920x1080 is a good starting point.

I need new reading glasses, so I used the Opt-->Cmd-->+ (plus sign) shortcut to increase the note size several times. (This is a Mac shortcut.) Now, the home page is in what looks like a 6-point typeface. I cannot read it without using the same shortcut. I've been using the web version since I sent a note to the powers that be, but I've given up on an answer. Can anyone here help?

I would open a support ticket... if something like that is happening support should be aware. They may need to reindex your database on the backend.

For me it creates a note containing an image of my handwriting, and it is searchable. The searching can give false positives! But a big advantage is that while in Apple Notes, you can highlight some of the handwriting and choose Copy to Text.

Yeah new startup screen sucks. How do we get My Widgets that I’ve been using forever back to the default? Why would they change this and not have an option to set your own startup screen? Not a good update

Yep. Heaven help us if they roll out "RENT" while support is still a fiasco. Imagine all the possible sync bugs that would further overwhelm support and frustrate users? I just hope that's part of the calculus in the delay rolling out RENT.

The old widgets are two taps away. Not instant but also not buried. if your new home screen does not show the scratchpad, the latest, which does have a scratchpad, may not have rolled out to you yet.

I think some public recognition by @Federico Simionato of the problem, and then some steps they are taking to fix it would help generate some needed goodwill and demonstrate they have awareness of the severity of the problem. Support is abysmal and has been for far too long.

For me it works seamlessly to drag & drop in and out. But of course, it’s on a Mac …

At least when I tried, it only shared a link.

NO setting need to be adjusted to mimic legacy. There is no way to mimic legacy by settings - and this is the right approach by all means. It‘s a new generation of software, and it was never build to mimic an outdated, years •00 design. Learn how to use it - and forget to find outdated code in some obscure corner. It’s not there.

Thanks for sharing this fix! This margin change was driving me crazy too. I can't believe how many settings in v10 need to be adjusted to match Legacy's functionality. It's a real hassle. An 'EN Classic Mode' with Legacy defaults to flip all these settings over at once would be fantastic! It would save everyone a lot of time and frustration.

Downsized or not. Relocated or not. Fact is it’s not working - in this very moment. It is no consolation for a user with an urgent actual problem that in the long term the strategy will lead to an improvement. There is a time for strategy - and there is a time to take action and „stop the bleeding“. Nobody expects an engineering miracle in bug hunting. But WTF stops these guys to sort out payment and account downgrade issues 24/7 ??? And THIS can be outsourced for sure !

Don't know that I would include spouse or heirs in the consideration for "note tanking" app selection. I would consider dropping whatever into an indexed folder structure, creating a shortcut on the desktop, and explain the search field. For the more tech savvy family send a link for their use plus share your device credentials. Based on my family universe anyway. No way my spouse would crack EN usage, old or new. She did have recipes in Legacy, but V10 was a bridge too far, she just didn't want to invest the time. So I dumped 1500 PDFs to an indexed folder and created a shortcut. It works. And lets me live on the wild side. 🤣 YMMV.

Don’t know what you are criticizing then. The scratchpad is one of the elements of the new mobile GUI.
