I'm having this same issue in the Legacy Android app today. Saved searches return incorrect results which worked fine for many weeks before. Seems to have started today.

I tried Filterize and didn't like it, so I wrote my own. This solution depends on Mac Automation. Mobile users with a Mac can benefit if you leave it running.
This script accepts natural language tags in a variety of formats that begin with "repeat". Yes, these are actual tag names.
- "repeat every 3 days"
- "repeat Tuesday"
- "repeat monthly"
- "repeat daily at 5pm"
- "repeat 2 weeks"
- "repeat every Wed"
- "repeat yearly"
- "repeat every 3 months 8AM"
- "repeat July 4"
- "repeat Feb 17th at 8:30pm"
When it detects a note with a repeat tag and a completed reminder, it automatically resets the reminder time to the date specified.
EDIT: I updated script to support multiple recurrences. It picks the earliest one found. You could use ["repeat Mon", "repeat Wed", "repeat Fri"] to make a M/W/F repeating schedule. Or you could use ["repeat 1st", "repeat 16th"] to setup a bi-monthly schedule.
I set mine up to run via cron every minute. It acts similar to Filterize, but this is FREE.
crontab -e * * * * * osascript $HOME/Library/Scripts/Evernote-recurring.scpt
Feedback welcome.

The key was Evernote remembered whether reminders were visible or not from the last time you were in a notebook. It seems in Evernote 6 they saved that as a preference somewhere in the app. My workflow has been single click for a long time. The Android/Web clients are still single-click (they remember if reminders were open). I just checked both, they still follow the Evernote 6 model of remembering whether the user had made reminders visible.
If you don't believe me, I can find an old Evernote 6 for Mac installer and create a movie to demonstrate. Or you can try the Android/Web client yourself.

It might be a feature request, and it's kind of saying "Hey Evernote! Your newest feature just made my workflow harder. Help!"
The issue is this: the latest Evernote defaults to showing the notes tab every time (see screenshots). But I have an actions/todo notebook I ALWAYS want to show reminders for. This means I must click twice to show reminders (1. go to notebook; 2. go to reminders tab).
Sure it's an extra click, and it won't kill me. And I understand why Evernote re-organized it, and honestly it looks better. But is there anyone else struggling with the extra click step introduced by the latest update?

I can understand why Evernote split the Notes and Reminder views into two tabs. However I have a ToDo notebook that consists of 100% reminders. The Reminders view is always what I select in that notebook without exception. I also have a few tags that are always reminders without exception. Can you add an option to default it to Reminders tab? Even if it's a hidden view preference or option so it doesn't bother other users.

This feature has been on my top 10 wishlist for almost a year. Other wishes would be linking to tags, notebooks and saved searches.
What we really need is a keyboard shortcut for wiki linking to a new note. What I've found so far is this workflow for the Windows client. It is not ideal, but it gets the job done.
- Highlight the word or phrase you want to wiki link.
- Press Window-A to create a new note from the highlighted text.
- Note: Depending on how your Clipper options are set, Evernote may or may not switch focus to the new note.
- Copy the note link from the new note. This forces a client sync which can be slow at times.
- Note: There is no official shortcut for this. However pressing (Alt+N) followed by (Alt+L) will work regardless of where your cursor is. And you don't have to let go of the Alt key for this trick. I remember to combo as Note Link
- Switch back to the previous note where you want the link to appear.
- Note: There are forward and backward navigation buttons in the menu bar. I haven't found a shortcut key for this yet.
- Highlight the text where the link should go.
- Paste the note link.
- Note: Be careful. If the highlighted selection is long, it might be trimmed to a shorter length.

I'm not alone wishing I had an invite to Tasks beta. We're anxiously waiting for the release!
