I was all set to email support about this but there is apparently a 10 DAY WAIT FOR A REPLY? What is the point....

Yet another broken feature that keeps me living in the legacy version of Evernote.

Yep another dealbreaker. 

Hi,

I beta test for some other software companies and on a Mac we can have several different versions of the app in the Applications folder provided we change the name of the older version, ie App v.3, App v.4, etc

Can this be done with Evernote? Could I rename the current version "Evernote Legacy" and then install the new version and still have access to both?

I see I'm gonna have to update sometime (ugh) so I want to be able to try out the new version.

Yup. Deal breaker for me. Stay on the legacy version.

Also, for those having problems, can you let me know any specific browser plugins you might be using, especially any ad blockers?

2 different macs, both running Catalina using Safari

No extensions other than web clipper

FWIW My iPad does the same thing.

Same here. Renders the App useless.

It's finally working! I had to select no off-line folders and let the app sit open for a couple minutes and then re-select download all in order for this process to start properly. Everything synced, and I have a lot of stuff, within a couple hours. I hope that as time moves on that the server response will get faster because it's pretty much slower than any other synchronizing app that I use.

Whew!

day 3 and my notes are still not downloaded on both my 2020iphoneSE and my 9.7" iPad Pro. This is completely unacceptable. I am losing my patience with this.

A month ago I left both my iPad and my iPhone unlocked and unplugged for over 48 hours in order to download off-line notebooks that in the previous version download it in a matter of hours.

This morning I noticed that they are all downloading all over again. Both of these devices have been on with Evernote open and the screen unlocked for seven hours and the downloading of off-line notebooks has not completed.

This "new improved" version of Evernote has been out for sometime now, and this behavior is inexcusable at this point. I'm really wishing I had another option but I have so much invested in this app…

FWIW I started a thread on this on Sept 16.

I have exactly the same issue. Seems to work fine speed wise on my 2020 iPhone SE but runs like a dog on my first gen 9.7" iPad pro. Very frustrating. Previous version ran fast and smooth. 😞

were they tiff files?

Bumping this. I just had this lack of tiff support stop the college class I was teaching today dead in its tracks. Opens fine on my Mac thank god. I have tiff images throughout ALL of my semesters lesson plans.

Why take a step backwards? 

FYI- folks on this forum were reporting that the web version was repeating notes  in July/Aug. Coincidence? Same code base?

I contacted tech support today, they told me 10.x is beta and gave me instructions for backtracking to production 8.x

It would be lovely if you could share the instructions for downgrading.

the list order for selecting/deselecting is in some kind of crazy random order. Can this list be sorted logically somehow? Super easy to make mistakes with the seemingly random order.

On my iPad under displays and brightness -text size I have enlarged the dynamic type which causes the problem in the attached picture rending that info unreadable. Problem did not exist with previous version.

Same here. made 7 copies. unusable in this condition. Please tell up how to downgrade.

Hi,

I am trying to figure out the best workflow for highlighting notes sent by clients as I do work for them. On a Mac, its pretty straightforward, either with text or pdf. On an iPad, its a mess, or at least it is for me.

How do you folks do this on an iOS device? Do you "annotate" a pdf? How do I get rid of the stupid extra window the doing this creates?

Also, god forbid the piano locks while the evernote document is open. There are unpredictable results when you reopen.

Help?

On tablet, when the highlighter is enabled, one should be able to drag their finger across text on the screen to highlight it. If you had a stylus or Apple pencil, you could then use that to highlight text as you read it.

The current state: when the highlighter is enabled, nothing happens. You have to click on a word. Select the pop-up menu "Select". Then drag the boundary borders to the section of text you want. Then click the highlight icon in the menu. This makes it very very difficult to read a text document and highlight it

This really should be a feature in this otherwise best in class app.

I agree that this is a workflow killer even on an iPad. Anytime the ipad sleeps it wipes out any annotation I made. Useless.

Chantal- this app has been broken and nearly USELESS for 2 months now. Please remind your team that they are now actively losing customers. Look at this forum thread? We are now discussing switching to other vendors apps in your own forum.

It’s been 6 weeks since this broken version of Penultimate came out and not a peep from Evernote folks here. I need a note taking app that works. Anybody have a good alternative? The apple notes app doesn’t cut it. 

This app is basically unusable now.

Im having the same problem on a 9.7" iPad pro and its maddening. I hope this gets fixed.
