In the scenario I described, the photos are lost completely. I know this from a painful post-meeting experience: I let a co-worker wipe the whiteboard after snapping a shot, assuming my trusty Android Evernote would be there for me. Alas, I learned to have less faith in Evernote (a lesson I've already learned on Mac).

Thanks for the tip about keeping the main app open. I might live with it to contain my note sprawl. Right now I have about a 50/50 content split between new notes in Evernote and nvAlt just because of this Helper issue and it's making my brain hurt.

This is driving me nuts right now. Are you telling me this is available on Windows!? It's not in Mac or the web app that I can find. I might just switch over to my Surface for this feature alone. In my case, I mostly want to sort by "updated", but I have some notebooks where I use numbering in the titles to sort by "alphabetical" (since custom sorting also isn't available). In those cases where I need the controlled sorting, it's critical for communicating with my collaborators and I really need that to stick. Everywhere else, it's a nuisance.

I've started moving to nvAlt. It never fails, syncs to Simplenote, and at least supports markdown formatting. Helper has so little functionality that I'm not missing it.

I've had the exact same problem hit me intermittently. Helper had been functioning fine for several months, then out of nowhere it lost a note from a critical client call. If past experience holds true, your missing notes will mysteriously show up one day within the next week. Seems to be a problem with the local database. Bottom line, Helper can't be trusted.

Let's hope the answer isn't "pay us and you can find it in the secret history stash". I'm having intermittent note availability issues on MacOS 10.13. Last time, my notes revived themselves several days later. I was told by support that they had "done something" on the server side the night before ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Evernote Helper quick entry failed miserably for me to, but I "Save to Evernote" right away. I use it to quickly capture notes while on a call, save, and move on to other things. Once or twice a week I open the app to review these notes. This week I discovered that none of my quick notes from the last week made it into Evernote. The toolbar quick entry acted like all was well, but nothing was saved ? I lost some critical notes from client and team calls. This is a big enough failure that I'm looking into new note taking solutions for the first time in ... 10 years? Make sure you
