MOVE button is grayed out until I use mouse and click a notebook name. It is just tiresome

Yup, same thing on windows app too. Breaking something that was working previously with an update is frustrating however. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Anybody having any issues with moving notes after the latest update also with the task early access?

I am having 2 issues, one of them shows a LOCK icon next to the notebooks so they are grayed out and cannot move.

Those locks went away after a while but then the MOVE button is grayed out so I still cannot move the note even if I can select the notebook.

See the lock ↑

It looks like it goes away after a while but not sure why the lag?

But the thumbnail will not refresh

I have some notes that show a thumbnail but there is no pictures in the note. It is generally clipped from an email with photo attachments. But the note does not show the image but the thumbnail shows it. Weird bug.

When you completely shut down Evernote (not running in the background), does the keyboard go back to working?

Yesterday, I had a note open in the Windows app. 

Opened the same note on the iOS app so I can copy paste a text from a text message I had on my phone. I pasted the text into the note.

Did not touch the note on the Windows App, waited for it to update. As soon as it updated, it prompted that it found a duplicate version of this note as a conflicting note. (or something like that). I made sure that I was not modifying the open note in the Windows app.

Does the new Version (10.13) for Windows just work yet?

I was one of the ones that criticized the V10 a lot but I must admit it came a long way from what it was.

The speed was the biggest issue for me, although it is not as fast as the V6 (legacy) version, it is now manageable so I started using it fully as I figured I would have to do it at some point. 

Everybody uses Evernote in a different way, certain features are important to some users and some users could not care less about those same features. So as S2sailor suggest, best to download and try it out yourself. 

Before the 10.11.5 update, you could type in a tag in the search box, for example "Statement" then select the tag "Statement", the word statement would disappear from the search box and you can keep typing your search now.

After the update, you select the tag statement but the word does not get deleted from the search box, so now you have to highlight and delete the word so you can type the word you are searching for.

This seems like they broke something that was working nicely. Anybody noticed the same issue?

I just realized I cannot create the Windows folder or file links since the link option in V10 requires the HTTPS:

I guess that's why all my links went away. 

I definitely would like the option to create the internal links to files or folders, such a time saver.

Evernote freezes in the online version

Have you tested it with different browsers?

So that they are gone forever if I re-open the note in Legacy?

Looks like it remains untouched in the Legacy ↓

Same note in V10 ↓

Links in legacy worked, no link in V10.

5) Unusable slow on older PCs

I think it is slow on newer PCs too (of course "slowness" is relative to the user)

6) Self-update does work when running non-admin user. Installations does work for non-admin user.

This is interesting, because at work I don't have any admin rights and I cannot install any software on my local laptop or on the remote desktop we use without asking IT to remote into my comp and putting the password in. However, I can install V10 on both settings without needing any admin password, it does not even prompt one.

The foundation the new Evernote is build on will always be slower than the legacy versions.

I can accept (to a certain degree) the slower app when switching between notes, or notebooks but when the typing has a lag, that is not acceptable to me. It is a note taking app and I need to be able to type away. Same with tagging, I should be able to tag quickly, instead I type the tag, wait for it, hit enter....wait for it to show up then type the next tag.

I am really hoping the typing lag will go away, I don't think I can live with that though.

When I paste an image, it still inserts 3 images into the note.

This has been going on for a while now.

What do you guys think, is EN getting better or worse?

It really depends on how you look at it and what is important to you.

Right now, V10 looks like a modern app, all the platforms look and function the same, updates are coming faster along with new features. So on surface these are all good indicators.

However, to me and to bunch of others here, the fundamental feature of the note taking app (which is note taking) has been compromised. The new app is super slow and hogs a lot of resources. I still cannot type without a delay and when I tag something, it is even slower. Notes load slower, when I insert a simple screenshot, it takes longer. Overall usability has been decreased for me.

For some users, that might be ok and the new features might be worth the slow down. To me, there is a reason I use the desktop app vs the web app or an iOS app. I want it to take advantage of a computer, be faster, have keyboard shortcuts etc. Thus, the electron based app now is a step down for me and I hope I am wrong and it will get as fast as the V6.25.

Time will tell.

I've had issues with the iPhone app especially when adding photos etc. in iPhone.

I would start with removing the Evernote app on your iPhone and reinstalling it first (if you have not tried this before of course). That solved my syncing problems before.

I don't use the web app so I don't have any experience there.

Hi, when I add some pictures in a note they do not have a blank line between them. Before 10.7.6 I could click on a photo, press enter and then there was a blank line added between photos/pictures so I could add text. Now when I select a picture and press "Enter" the picture is deleted. So adding text between pictures is somehow hardly possible anymore. You have cut the photo out. Add a line, then paste the image back. What?! This seems to be introduced in web as well with the actual update. I am quite frustrated since adding several pictures and lateron commenting to them is a regular use case for me.

 

I noticed this too.

In the 6.25 app, I normally do the same, hit enter generate space, type something and then drop the photo etc.

V10 does not let me do the same.

Even typing out text involves considerable lags.

This is driving me crazy! Although there has been significant speed improvement compared to the initial release but still the lag with the typing is still there and I don't think that is acceptable with a "note taking" app.

If they cannot get the lag and the speed/performance under control, all the nice things being added (such as the home screen, dark mode etc.) will mean nothing. It is like my car has heated leather seats and can make coffee for me on the way to work but only goes 5mph. Give me the fundamental function first, then make my coffee

I don't use them but you should look at the calendar templates

There's not a lot of space; I would insert a link to a more detailed note

I have used the templates before but still not practical while you are in a note and want to create a custom calendar to show from today to the deadline or whatever you have planned.

Like a "module" within the note as a standalone calendar. I think Notion has something similar, might be wrong though.

When planning for something in Evernote, within the note, I either copy paste a screenshot of a calendar view or create a table with the dates etc. which is cumbersome.

I thought it would be really nice to be able to insert a "calendar" , you can choose the start date and end date which will result in an table created automatically where you can put critical info into the date boxes.

Can someone tell me if the current version of Evernote is reasonably fast and responsive or if I should stick with the legacy version for a while longer?

I am trying to use V10 for work and it really is not working out. Even for personal use, the speed (lack of) is really bothersome but since it is personal notes and I mess with them at night or on the weekend, I can be more flexible. But at work, I need the data, reference materials and the search function to be fast and responsive. So 6.25 it is !

With every update, I hope it is faster and way better but it is not even close to the previous version which is becoming more concerning to me for the future of my use of Evernote.

If you value speed and get frustrated with super slow computers or apps, stick to legacy.  

Update ↓

Strange that same version at my home PC does not have the same issue. Shortcuts seem to be working there, but not on my work PC.

Really strange because all of these still work perfectly for me (including F3) provided of course I am editing a note (ie the edit menu is visible). Could it be a keyboard issue? Mine is set to English (United Kingdom) in Windows.

I don't think it is a keyboard issue. All shortcuts work as intended in the 6.25 version I have with the same keyboard.

F3 never worked consistently for me since the initial release of V10 by the way.

Same here.

I noticed it with the CTRL + SHIFT + B for the bullet list, it stopped working with this update.

Numbered list does not work either.

Now I saw your post and CTRL + B etc. is not working either!

CTRL + U works at least  

I gave up on the F3 for tag shortcut which still does not work, but do not lose the ones that were working!

@TK0047 I presume that you have tried the standard Quit Evernote and then Restart. If that isn't working for you then you might be best advised to open a support ticket. In the meantime go back to the legacy version which should not suffer the issue.

Yes, tried it before. Now tried it on a different computer at the house, note is in blank in the V10 app. Online shows the content although formatting is different and is not as clean as the version on V6.25.

Submitted a ticket request.

For the first time I experienced the same thing. I have a note in the shortcuts, when I open it in V10, the title is there but the note is blank. I can see it in V6.25. So the note is there but V10 does not display it.

My other notes are ok, not sure how many are like that of course.
