Just got this feature, but all I get is a blank screen when I click on Files. I've left it there 5+ minutes at a time in case it's just slow to load. I'll test again once I update to 10.85.x.

It hasn't rolled out to me, yet, but I'm interested in it. Anyone who has it, how are you using it? I'm hoping it will allow me to text search PDF files more easily (particularly when multiple PDF files are in a single note).

Not that I know of, unfortunately. Perhaps Evernote support on the back-end have a way but that's pure speculation.

This is not true, it has been raised many times over the past year and while you may not remember, I know you have participated in threads where this has both been mentioned (e.g. by yours truly) and has been acknowledged by Bending Spoons (e.g. the untitled attachment issue). It is a known issue, thought to be solved multiple times over the past year. And apparently it's back, at least for one user. A little empathy goes a long way.

Unfortunately, I too have experienced both issues (on the v10 desktop app for macOS), though I have not experienced either for several months, knock on wood. I've written about them in more detail in the past on these forums, and I've corresponded with Evernote support and particularly with respect to the "untitled attachment" issue have even corresponded with the BS CEO about it. All I can suggest is to follow the basic troubleshooting steps already mentioned in this thread and then if that fails capture logs and send them into support ASAP. They have supposedly fixed bugs related to this issue over the past year but apparently there are more bugs to fix, and the logs will help. Also, one time they were somehow able to retrieve an attachment from the server even though it no longer appeared in my note history. Best of luck.

Don't you think it's ridiculous that this is necessary? They really should do a better job of educating the user in-app and utilizing background tasks to not require such workarounds.

Individual developers working remotely in (just about) any part of the world is not really a concern to me. Presumably they will be held to the standards and expectations of the mothership, and that (and the mothership's ownership structure, owners, culture, and leadership) is the part I really care about, for reasons I outlined above.

According to a quick search, your phone only has 4GB of RAM. Depending on what apps you are switching to, it's possible that it needs to close Evernote to free up RAM. A newer phone, if that's something you're already considering, may alleviate this issue.

From my perspective it's not that important where individual members of the development team are physically located. What's important to me is that a company's owners and leaders are incentivized to do the right thing in terms of how they treat my data beyond a simple economic interest in the company they are running. That means being incentivized to follow the law, to be truthful with how they are treating our data, and to face consequences if they fail to do so. Public figures have incentives to uphold their reputations. If they are connected to a community of investors, that's another reason they have to not sully their reputations. Those investors also have reasons to investigate the people they are entrusting with their money, which provides some social proof of their trustworthiness. Combine that with living / working in countries with strong legal systems and with reciprocal legal agreements (e.g. to extradite criminals), they also have incentives to follow the law and face the possibility of harmed consumers seeking reparations through the civil court system. Of course none of this is perfect, but it gives me a measure of comfort. A notes app that is (for example) developed by a couple of anonymous developers in Vietnam, just doesn't have the same reasons to trust them with my data.

No, it means the general issues I was having with Gmail (such a reconnecting... message frequently appearing at the top) hasn't re-appeared. But that could also be related to clearing my cache and cookies so I'm not sure the extension had anything to do with it. I need to do more testing with the extension back on to see if it reoccurs. Gmail clipping still doesn't work, unfortunately. I'm re-opening a support case I previously had going regarding the web clipper. Suggest anyone else who cares about that function to also report it, otherwise it may not get any attention.

Darn. I sent feedback to Google and suggest anyone experiencing issues with Gmail does the same. Click the button labeled "?" in the top-right of the Gmail screen, then click "Send feedback to Google." Describe the issue in detail. FWIW, in addition to clearing cache/cookies, I've tried disabling all extensions except for Web Clipper and it still occurs. I've also tried disabling all extensions including web clipper, and the issue hasn't occurred since (though I need to use Gmail for longer and test further to be sure). If that holds true, then it's possible that Evernote may need to update something on the web clipper to fix this.

I've been experiencing weirdness with Gmail in general the last couple of days. And this morning the clipper is no longer offering "Gmail" as an option, even through the web clipper hasn't been updated since March 4th (so likely due to a change on the Gmail side, or perhaps in Chrome). There's a Chrome update downloading now and I will test further after it installs.

If anyone wants to really make sure that an overtaxed support department truly understands the issue, here's my suggestion: Create a dummy note with generic text and lots of bullets / sections, make sure there are sufficient collapsible sections to have truly awful performance. Share it publicly, then send the link to support. It will immediately be very clear to them.

The browser-based (desktop) web clipper works better for clipping Gmails, but the benefit of the Gmail integration is that it also works on mobile. So they both have their uses.

Speaking for myself, I don't recall any threads that Federico participated becoming toxic, but perhaps I missed it. Still, my speculation is the recent focus on Twitter is to attract a different kind of user and potentially get exposure to people who don't currently use EN or formerly used EN, neither of which are likely to be spending much time on these forums.

Any app which sells a lifetime license is living on borrowed time. Fine for certain things where I could get some value for a few years and not be overly fussed when the app inevitably shuts down or a new incompatible version is launched. But, for something as important as my notes and knowledge repository that's just too risky for me.

It's a very minor issue in the grand scheme of things but best practice is to allow the small number of users who know/care to individually opt in to the latest updates by checking for updates. This also allows support reps dealing with customers to more easily ask them to update to solve a bug they may be experiencing. The remaining 99+% of users can slowly get the rollout over the course of a week as per usual. Exactly.

I'm hopeful that the new Files feature that is slowly rolling out will add this functionality soon. Fingers crossed.

Thanks everyone for testing and finding all those obvious bugs that should have been found before pushing this to release. My sympathies for your aggravation. Thanks to your sacrifice I will gladly hold off a few days and wait for the inevitable .3 or. 4 or .5 version...

Sorry to hear you're having trouble. This used to be a more frequent bug that impacted me a few times. If the edits are important and hard to recreate, you could contact support and they may be able to recover the file for you (they were able to recover for me once). Support can be slow to respond lately. Either way it's worth reporting to support so that they can be aware that there might still be some bugs with PDF handling. I once also received the "saved locally" message and I believe I was able to find the file in my Evernote cache. on Mac it was in $user/Library/Application Support/Evernote/. On Windows it might be in C:\Users\<your-login-name>\AppData\Roaming\Evernote\ (maybe others can confirm; I don't have a Windows PC with Evernote.) Good luck.

I'm still on 10.79.2 but I'm also seeing some weirdness with the width of text. Not only with the more/overflow menu, but body text of notes themselves now have a large margin on the left side when I make the window wide. I'm quite sure it's a bug and hopefully will be fixed in the next update.

Not sure where I developed the habit, but I always place a space before and after using the slash e.g. "either / or." I guess that habit will serve me well with this change! I can see how it'd be annoying for people who don't use spaces, however.

Yeah, it definitely changed. It actually used to be worse early in the rollout of the new UI, with zero or virtually zero indentation (possibly a bug). The spacing of sub-tags has become a little slimmer with the new UI but it's a tricky balancing act. For a great example, see the person who posted after you in this very thread - they have multiple levels of tag hierarchies with some long tag names and they can't see the full length of their tags in the sidebar. Their problem would be even worse if there were more spacing in the tag hierarchies. One of those situations where it's tough to please everyone. 🤷‍♂️

For those of you clipping or primarily clipping on desktop, the browser extension is far superior IMHO and works again as of about 2 days ago. Look toward the bottom of this page: https://evernote.com/download

Are you using the Gmail add-on? That's stopped working, but the Evernote Web Clipper Browser Extension is working well as of 2 days ago. (Desktop only is the limitation).
