  1. No, they're not giving a timeline. I think once they've stabilized the features in the Note Editor inside Evernote Web, they'll have a better idea about timelines for pushing this to the desktop and mobile software. 🙏🏼
  2. With the current iPadOS beta, it seems like the browser is capable of doing what the desktop macOS is capable: https://www.imore.com/ipados-public-beta-ultimate-guide. I wonder (though hardly able to confirm) if that will help you out here with your web archive file. 🧐
  3. Can you unpack your suggestion here a bit more? This sounds like a feature request (see instructions below in my signature). But, I'd like to hear more about what exactly it is that Pocket/Instapaper or similar read-later apps are doing that "Simplified article" clipping format isn't doing for you? In the video, it looks as though the containerized Web clip can be morphed into simplified formatting that can be edited. Once edited, I think it would be difficult to revert that back to the original content without saving duplicate amounts of data (out of sight) within the note. Thanks; I'm curious about this as well as the note editor gets overhauled.
  4. I believe Yinxiang Biji was spun out of Evernote proper and they run independently (of which Evernote is a minority shareholder), so it's not a correct comparison. (Source: https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/07/evernote-is-spinning-out-its-chinese-business-and-it-plans-to-take-it-public/) I think it's great that they have added mind mapping functionality to YB; I'm a big fan of mind mapping, generally. We lost the inimitable Dr. Tony Buzan earlier this year. However, if you'd like Evernote to progress, might I suggest making a feature request (see the link below in my signature on how to do so) and not insulting the hardworking people behind the service. We can all disagree and rigorously debate the progress and direction of Evernote, but ad hominem attacks are pointless. By the way, if anyone knows differently about YB's current status, I'd be curious to know.
  5. If this is helpful, please note that Evernote is currently undergoing some renovations to the note editor experience. See: Behind the Scenes: Redesigning the Note Editor in Evernote So, there are changes coming that may make auto-linking behavior independently of Apple's iOS editor.
  6. For those looking for a quick-and-dirty way to exclude a notebook (as I couldn't see that that it is already explained above) from search: Go to the notebook you want to exclude, select all notes (Control/Command + a). Create a new tag for filtering by typing it into the tag field that appears. (I use "x".) I let Evernote synchronize just for good measure. Now, you can create a search using -tag:x to exclude notes in that notebook. And, you can base a Saved Search off of this method. If you plan to do this regularly, just remember to repeat steps 1-3 during regular maintenance of your notes before doing step 4. I do this during my weekly review (in GTD lingo). If you'd like to do a bit of automation, you can create a free Zapier account (free account allows up to five automations ("zaps") and trigger Zapier to add that "x" tag when a new note is added to that notebook. I have this set up for my "zArchives" notebook which I explicitly don't want to show up in many of my Saved Searches. This works quite well for me. I've voted for the feature, but I'm not holding my breath for this low-priority feature. Hope this helps!
  7. I'm looking forward to seeing this behind-the-scenes video series, to see what Evernote is up to, and learning more about the future of the Evernote product suite. 👍🏼
  8. @macfixer - Are you talking about the feature that created a new meeting note when based on your Google Calendar events? If so, that's a fantastic feature and if that's what you're talking about I'll gladly upvote this suggestion.
  9. Modifying/appending your skeuomorphism analogy...I use notes as pages in notebooks; stacks as a grouping of notebooks; and, tags can be visualized as post-it notes you can adhere to specific pages (notes) and multiples to them as well, throughout any of the pages in any notebook, for easy reference and grouping.
  10. Agreed, @jefito, that the Android beta community makes sense to be here with the rest of the discussion forums. Google+ has halted new profile/page/community/event creation as of yesterday, and so it's best for us not to wait until April to transition the community there. @Shane D., perhaps you (or whoever is on point for this) can let us know when the decision is made? Thanks!
  11. Not specific to coloring, but may be a workaround for it, Nick. You could simply click on the Reminder (clock) icon of the candidates in that notebook who are actively seeking, as you put it. (No need to add a date to the reminder at all; just click on the clock icon.) These will shuffle those candidates' notes to the top of your notebook when you click on that notebook. Now, you don't need to scroll through the list because you have prioritized those candidates to the top. When done, just click on the Reminder icon and clear the reminder to remove them from the "actively seeking" status. Nothing else about the note changes, but that reminder note status. Hope that helps!
