Starting to come around regarding version 10 of the Windows app. I've been using it for the last two weeks as my main work driver and it's been going pretty well. 

Coming from the fact that I have been deeply ingrained in the "old way" represented by versions leading up to v6 when we made the jump to v10, that's saying a lot. 

Suffice to say I was pretty rattled by the shift to an app that had almost no features by comparison to its predecessors.

Still a ways to go, but here's what I'm liking so far:

• Dashboard > Pinned notes: this is keeping me focused. I write a daily "battle plan" for work and pin it here during the week. During the weekend, I have a different note pinned to help me power through my honey-do's and the like. I'm getting more done
• Note editor.  I'm loving the markup shortcuts, like the use of "#" from 1 to 3 times before typing to initiate the appropriate header, marking off a section of my text. I'm all about helping myself visually in my notes so it's nice to have something I can quickly use on the keyboard to do this as I go.
• Tasks are greatly improved for the most part. Dragging todo's to reposition them based on what's happening throughout the day is assisting my focus greatly. On this point, I do wish I somehow had the option to show that a task is done in some other way than by strikeout.  Having a line straight through the item is a bit much sometimes if I have to read them again. I'd be nice to have it grey, but maybe not strikeout--to make that configurable. But that's probably minor in the grand scheme.

Performance has improved enough for me to use EN v10.x as my daily driver. It could improve a bit more to make it truly "fast", but at least I can start dialing in my own v10 habits at this point which helps me to relearn what I need to in order to rebuild some of my workflows.

I'm optimistic we'll end up with a strong app in the end, so to speak.

Now if only someone could right the Android app which, according to Google Play Store reviews, is a sinking ship.
