  1. Thank you very much CalS. I used a similar hybrid system some months ago, but I couldn't manage to get efficient I'll try the reminder system on the next week after thinking about it ?
  2. I have many tasks to do at the same time: write something for my patients, give some calls, do some little actions. For all of my projects almost all of the actions are independent from each other. I begin to understand how your system works, I need to think about it a little more to make it perfectly clear. How do you proceed with items you couldn't proceed for today? For example today is 2018/09/30 and I cannot do 3 items. On the 2018/10/01 do I need to modify all the reminders to 10/01 or would they still appear on 10/01 with the search even if the reminder is still 09/30? Also is there an easy way to set reminders with shortcuts? I can't find any shortcut, but I may be wrong?
  3. Hi DTLow. How frequently do you have to update your system, for setting precise dates? If I understand it all, it seems we have pretty similar way of proceeding, just that you're using reminder where I use tags?
  4. Hi Cals, thank you for your answer. I tried the notebook system, but it didn't work for me. I found the tag system to be complete, it just took a little time everynight, not too much after all. The system seemed to fit pretty well, but it needs more efforts along the week. By reading you, I'm thinking that my system wasn't that bad. I just needed to be more rigorous about it.
  5. Hi DTLow, and thank you for your answer. What I don't understand is how you specify "the actual date". If I set a reminder, I have to set a fixed date (for example I set today a reminder on 2018/10/01 that will be tomorrow). How do you proceed for notes you want to proceed lately (next week or later) but still don't know precisely when ?
  6. Hi everyone, I've got some questions about the "Task management system" in Evernote. I use Evernote as my main and only system to take note, but also as my task list. Non actionnable notes are tagged with the ".cabinet" tag and placed into the proper folders Actionnable notes have 4 types of tag! What project: guitar, word, professional... What: what action is needed (call, email, errand...) Where: where can the action be taken (anywhere, work, home, on any computer...) When (cf. below) The When part is the part I'm questioning myself is the time management. For now I use a tag system as below (0 is for all the items I need to proceed today, 1 for tomorrow, and 2 for the day after. 3 lists all the items I need to proceed during this week with no particular order) The downside of this system is that I need to update it every evening: Put the "1" into "0" and "2" into "1" See if all the actions I couldn't proceed in "0" should remain in "0" or be placed into another tag It takes almost 10-15 minutes everyday. I'm wondering if another system could be better? Do you have any idea? What do you personally use?
  7. Hi, thanks for this new version. The tab feature is great . I've noticed a bug when trying to highlight some text when a background color is set (cf. picture). Also when creating a note the focus is not set to the text area, and a click on the note is needed. But it seems this problem is adressed in Evernote 6.7
  8. @iShiBin : our system are quite the same, just you have searches instead of tags. I was doing the same in the beginning, but I found the tags faster to be put as when I press the " * " touch I have all my Spaced repetition tags available. GrumpyMonkey : I agree that app suited for the task are perfect for word learning etc. But they aren't very good when it comes to lots of big lessons . I wasn't a big fan of having lots of Notebooks with notes inside, but I'm wondering now as I want to make a project journal
  9. Hi Gazumped, thank you for making me discover all these reminder systems. They're are unfortunately the same use as reminders. I always have Evernote in my laptop tray, phone and tablet, I'll get a notification in time. And sending a note by mail seems harder thant tagging and setting a timer. Honestly I don't use the Space repetition system very often. I'd rather use checkboxes on a weekly calender for now Have a great evening
  10. Hi Ishibin !!! It's not the perfect system, and I couldn't apply it to my lessons as there were too many of them. But here's what I've done a tag ".Spaced repetition system" that contains the following tag: *-SR00 (timer 1 day) *-SR01 (timer 4 days) *-SR02 (timer 7 days) *-SR03 (timer 12 days) *-SR04 (timer 20 days) *-SR05 (timer 1 month) *-SR06 (timer 2 months) *-SR07 (timer 3 months) *-SR08 (timer 5 months) *-SR09 (timer 9 months) *-SR10 (timer 12 months) When finishing a lesson for the first time, I create a note with the lesson name, and I give it the tag "*-SR00 (timer 1 day)" and put a timer from 1 day on to remind me of reading it again. When finished rereading I delete the previous tag and put "*-SR01 (timer 4 days)" instead with a reminder 4 day from the date... It's not perfect but it's simple and working. I've found no way of putting reminders automatically. If someone has an idea
  11. Hi pnewcomb. Thanks for the explanation !! I've managed to go with only Evernote with a special tagging system and alarm setting (that I manually at the creation of the note). It works pretty well for now
  12. Hi Cat. Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately I'm using windows :s
  13. Thank you very much DTLow, all is perfectly clear and working
  14. Thanks to you both. Csihilling, it's perfectly working, the font seems to have been changed in a lot of notes. EN is the best. Thank you very much for all your help One more question : are the changed made on all available devices ? On tablet or android phone, I can't change the font. Am I right ?
  15. Thanks DTLow. I've manage to change the defaut font, but i want to change the font of all my existing notes. The defaut font only applies to the new notes and not the old ones :'(
  16. Hye dear Evernote members I was wondering if there was a way to change the font of all my note. I don't wish to change the size, but just the font type. Is this possible ? Have a great evening
  17. Thanks Gazumped and sorry for my late answer, i've had some unexpected work. In fact i'm testing the system right now, but i've put some modification. In the tag title i've written the proper timer to set when my lesson is finished (for example ==> *-SR00 (timer 1 day) ). So i know when to set each time. I'll see if it works with lots of lessons, with lots of differents subjects. Let's see if the tagging system is ok
  18. Thank you very much Gazumped. I've read all the pages you've given here, i've come to the idea that Evernote by himself with the proper configuration would be perfect (in fact my lesson are often about 10pages), and i just need timemarks/reminders ! What would be perfect is to associate a tag with a specific "time reminder" (ie that all note tagged with SR1 would be prompted 3days from the tagging hour etc...)
  19. Thanks Torson. I've beeen using Anki for a while, but i didn't work the way i needed (for big lessons), so i went back to Evernote. I've been taking a look to Revunote, but i think i'll stick with my personnal system. It seems to work quite well at the moment. I'll try it better when the school starts again !!! Thanks for your help !! Have a nice evening
  20. Thanks Frank, I just need to reed the article about SR in a deeper way, but here's how i plan to do hit : I'll have a Master Lessons List, including all my lessons of the year, each one will be put in a subtopic (for example biology, etc). I dunno yet if i'll put checkboxes in it to know if the lesson is put in the SR system (if i have made the first learning) Once the lesson is first complete, i'll give it a SR0 tag (first learned, but no review yet). I'll have to check if tagging a note changes it "modification date", if so, the date tagged will be the last time i learned the lesson When added the SR0 tag, i'll put a reminder to the SR1 time (time i need to make the first review) And so on for every note and every SR level Don't you think it will be too hard to maintain ?
  21. Hye Frank. Thank you very much for your system !!! Sorry for answering so late, i'm on exams for a few weeks :'( I'll give it a look, it seem wonderful. I probably won't use TOC the way you told as every lesson will come day after day, and each will have it's beginning day Thanks again !!
  22. Thank you very much for your brainstorming Frank !!! The problem is : each lesson will start from a different date, so i'll have different "revision date" for different notes having the same interval. I'd like to have an automated system, but i could also have a checklist system, with different checkboxes for the number of revision made, but it seems hard to maintain up to date ?! The tagging system wont work if i'm right because each lesson will have a different beginning (i've thought about it this day, but i may be mistaken, or don't understand properly what you told me ?!), and filter by a start date tag would be a mess ? But again, thanks very much
  23. Hello, sorry i didn't see your answer. In fact i don't want the flashcard, my lessons are too hard to put into flashcards :'( (and they take too much time to do it, time that i'd rather spend learning or doind something else ) In fact i just want timer for actions according to the wozniak alogithm, so i thought evernote could do it via reminders. In fact, i just want to use spaced repetition as just recurring learning but i want some software to do the planification between my lessons I don't know if i'm really clear (sorry again for my bad english)
  24. Thanks you JMichael. In fact i'd like to set a reference timer for all notes. For example remind me after 5h, then 1day, then 4 days, then 2weeks. I know that it seems very complicated with evernote reminders : i can only use one single reminder per note. But i don't know what to use instead :'(
