I'm using Evernote quite successfully on a Galaxy 22 Ultra with Android 13, similar to @YJPark's previous experience. My wife has a Z Fold (but not Evernote), and it can be troublesome at times. For instance, she finds that the touch screen often fails to respond if the phone is unfolded completely flat; it has to be only partly open. Other than that, I can only agree with @agsteele and suggest opening a support ticket, using the Web form rather than from the app if it is having trouble submitting the information.

Bending Spoons Price Increases Begin
Dave-in-Decatur replied to Paul A.'s topic in Evernote General Discussions
A lifetime sub for $25 means out of business before long, IMHO, at least if very many people subscribe and put up very many notes. Collapsible sections and custom sorts sound useful, but I don't see how they make up for lack of OCR, which would mean that attachments are not searchable. My Evernote Professional sub renews next month for the same as last year (US$100), so I'm staying put. Of course, they could change that price in the next 6 weeks! -
This has been a problem for a long, long time -- maybe even before v. 10. For me, it seems to be cookies rather than cache, as if Evernote somehow chokes on its own cookies (so to speak). At any rate, clearing the last day or even last hour of cookies fixes it. Really aggravating if I'm in a hurry.

If you're not doing anything on Evernote that is worth $1 a week, then definitely it is not the tool for you. I pay twice that and consider it good value for what I do with Evernote. To me, it seems that their pricing is not extortionate, just too high for some people's use cases.

Well, now you're claiming to read my mind. I do not feel resentful for paying Evernote more than you, or for paying period. I feel glad to pay for what I get good benefit from, just as (I suppose, but now I'm reading your mind) you feel good about paying for Google Drive. But taking a step back, I'm sorry for responding "coldly" to what really is a dire situation. I remember the first time I had a power outage when I'd been working on an unsaved document for some time. It was miserable. I should have shown more sympathy to your understandable distress. For me, a one-time $8 payment is a pretty low paywall. But I'm not in your shoes, and I don't know how much of an obstacle that is for you. For that matter, Bending Spoons has been going a little nuts with different rates in different countries lately, so I don't know if you'd pay as little as $8. I don't need to know your circumstances. I just sympathize with your loss. I hope that by now you've been able either to recreate your material, or to get in touch with Evernote support.

And other companies barely support their quite expensive products. Not meaning to pile on, but just offer a perspective: if you've been using Evernote for free for almost 10 years, you've already gotten an enormous amount of value at no cost. Something went wrong in this case that was not your fault, not Evernote's fault, maybe not LS's fault.... But something went wrong with a computer and you have to pay a little money to get it fixed. I don't understand why that seems so unreasonable. No real need to reply. Obviously it seems unreasonable to you, so there we are. I think the reason some others here seem to be pushing back is that, frankly, we've been paying for the whole 10 years you've been using it for free. You're welcome. But a little graciousness in seeing the forest, not just the one tree, might be nice.

Hi, and welcome to the forums. Many people have found the Android app to be intolerably slow and difficult to sync (not me, but lots of others), but losing notes is another matter. This definitely sounds like an issue for technical support. How long have your been waiting for a reply from them? Honestly, I doubt that there's much your fellow users here can do but sympathize. Just TBC, it's not a matter of one Evernote client syncing with another. Each client (desktop computer, Web, mobile) syncs with the Evernote server to update the master copy stored there, and then other clients sync down from that. Which makes it all the more surprising that the mobile and Web clients are lined up, and not the computer one.

Export/download your notebook and all notes?
Dave-in-Decatur replied to AntDX316's topic in Evernote General Discussions
My point being that it only refers to those desktop versions as being capable of export, meaning the Web and mobile versions are not. -
https://www.npr.org/2023/03/22/1165448073/voice-clones-ai-scams-ftc Someone calls you. It sounds exactly like your sister. She is in a desperate situation and needs your help. And it's someone using AI trying to rob you. I'm sure it's just media bias, but I'm still waiting to hear of any breakthrough thing that AI accomplishes that is both ethical and legal.

Export/download your notebook and all notes?
Dave-in-Decatur replied to AntDX316's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Per https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005557: "Using Evernote for Mac or Windows, you can export a copy of any note and save it to your computer.... To export notes quickly, you can export entire notebooks." (emphasis added by me) -
Evernote Helper is moving to different corners
Dave-in-Decatur replied to DrFrankBuck's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Wow, literally all over the map! I find that either clicking the elephant in the tray or using Ctrl+Alt+H pops it up in the lower right. @DrFrankBuck, I can't imagine what they mean by "location on the taskbar." Does anyone have a choice where the system tray is located on the taskbar??? I suppose depending on how many windows you have open and how wide your screen is, it could get a little cramped there toward the right end, but under no conditions does that tray show up on the left end! Does it? -
Robot or no-bot, you are making the case for Evernote not to rush to add AI. "As it is a trend" is not a reason for doing anything. NFTs are a trend (or are they not one any more?). People who say there is no privacy are people who want an excuse to steal something. Or bots trying to justify their existence. If you don't think there's any privacy, why not share your email address and bank account info, maybe your DOB? Unless you are just fooling yourself.
