Per v10.81.4 release notes:

You can now hide the 'Press "/" to insert an element' hint in the editor with a dedicated setting in the editor's three-dots menu!

downloaded and done!
Thanks AdmiralP

Evernote experience appears to be degrading with each new, subsequent update. Specifically with search features/capabilities.

I noticed that search (Win platform), or alt+crtl+f, is randomly omitting tag labels.

For example,
searching for 'xyz' is randomly not finding tags labeled 'xyz'.
my work-around is to directly search tags as my first pass as finding something.

This new behavior breaks the recommendations previously offered while typing in search values.

 

Search Suggestions now broken (again) - flaky at best
I am now switching to 'tag search' as a more reliable approach

I am procrastinating...

If sleep is for the unemployed then
procrastination is for the employed

Lacking anything witty, I'll just leave it at that  (though much time was spent staring at this page)

Search suggestions appear to be working at pre upgrade level.

1. I downloaded/installed current version
2. tried a search in tags, cleared search, and then did main search.

Suggestions are now working per exceptions.

Thank you.

I'm not seeing any improvements...

Search still broken -  not seeing reasonable search suggestions.

I'm on version 10.68.2

Curious how Evernote managed to break this capability given our reasonable, and common, expectations regarding implementation/support of search suggestions.

For example, just go to your favorite web-search to see how this feature is generally implemented
(below example)

Before the upgrade, I would see real-time search suggestions listed as I typed.
This was a great feature as it provided me a sort-of wildcard capability while I typed. It did this be listing, as search suggestions, tags containing my search criteria.
 

for example: before the upgrade search 'abc' would provide suggestions for tags containing 'abc'

123abc (etc)

now, all I see are  exact matches. I only see 'abc' (no suggestions)

So, I need to now switch to my tags view and search there because wildcards still work from tags view.

In tags view now see, as a suggestion to 'abc' results:

123abc

There is now a v. 10.62.5

Thanks again Dave-in-Decatur
Stupid question though...
After following link, https://evernote.com/download: 
I downloaded and installed "windows" version but the "about Evernote" still reports v 10.63.2-win-ddl-public

Guessing I missed a step?

(above) link takes me to:
https://win.desktop.evernote.com/builds/Evernote-latest.exe

And when I try "win.desktop.evernote.com/builds"  I get the specified key does not exist. message

Hi All,

I'm using this thread to centralize posts regarding app performance issues.

This will help me better track your issues. I'll be looking to merge threads that fit the description into this one.

Hi Shane -

I just noticed some serious performance issues begginning with the installation of Evernote 10.63.1

I installed 10.63.1 to fix, or bring back the feature, of lookup suggestions. Lookup, or search, suggestions lost with the AI upgrade. Also noting that the AI search upgrade also does not support suggestions while typing.

Went to https://evernote.com/download and downloaded it, and the search suggestions (as well as results that are tags and notebooks are back). Hope it sticks this time. As always these days, the download is called Evernote-latest and I renamed the file to reflect the version number for archiving purposes.

This worked for me!
Thank you for posting the fix and download location.

Much, much better with those search suggestions returning.

I don't see any suggestions anymore for notes. I'm running the latest macOS client, version 10.62.5. So...?

Not seeing any fix either.
same problem as it was and is.

from "update evernote"

"You’re up to date!

Evernote 10.62.5 is currently the newest version available."

However, after the update I see absolutely no suggestions for any matching "notebooks, notes, tags..." which was working fine before the update.

I am kind of disappointed that the "standard search" is broken with this new update since it significantly effects my productivity.

I ran into exactly the same problem.
And, same impact on lost productivity.

version:
10.62.5-win-ddl-public

After recent upgrade, the one offering AI support during search...

Closest match no longer showing during search entry.
Prior to today's upgrade, I would see potential matches during search value entry.
And, this was a great feature (no gone) because I could previously adjust search values, dynamically, while searching for entries.

Why take this feature away?

Thanks for the feedback.

And, it's not all bad (the experience)
for example, I'm able to zoom in (increase font) for the entire evernote UI - thank you.


P.S. Noted that there's no efficiency guide for upgrading users. But, there are some helpful hints in the documents (otherwise).

Noting that I have no interest in these "features" - they don't help. These capabilities are otherwise very well supported in pure-play solutions. Meaning, why marshal these features in Evernote that's otherwise working very well currently.

Just updated.
Immediate observation regarding a productivity tax with this upgrade.

1) lost my "favorites" in toolbar. Still having trouble getting back my toolbar (looks like it's gone)
2) what was once a one-click tag search (from toolbar) is now a

a) 3-key combo (alt+ctrl+f), which is impossible with one hand!!!  (though looks like I can change this)

b) followed by a click to filter icon

c) followed by a click in tags

----- optional

a) type search in search field and watch for tags showing in results

Overall, not a delightful upgrade experience.
And, Evernote's help system lacks answers for basic windows user questions (such as "task bar", etc.)

So if you wish to use Evernote beyond the next few months then you should make a plan to upgrade. Otherwise, make a plan to transition.

The friction moving to any new aplication will be similar so choose the service that best suits your needs and start the switch sooner rather than later.

Any recommended solutions if leaning towards a different (better?) platform?
I remember reading something about Evernote's CEO taking this product direction. Alienating a noted number of users from the main product release stream.

None of these features map to user's productivity (from my perspective)
From update request 398256 (pop-up window/annoyance)

"Some things to look forward to in the new clients: cloud support for all your data, new and improved sync capabilities, real-time collaborative editing, (upcoming) AI powered features and much more!"

Noting that I have no interest in these "features" - they don't help. These capabilities are otherwise very well supported in pure-play solutions. Meaning, why marshal these features in Evernote that's otherwise working very well currently.

Doesn't look like this is a solution to ending the upgrade nags. Not sure why it's stated as such.

Reason for avoiding any upgrades from Evernote is due to some quality issues from last upgrade. Very poor UI/feature changes took its toll in lost efficiencies. Though I was able to download a legacy version that's working very well.

Haven't seen any good reasons for going for an upgrade. What I'm reading however are some vague security fixes. Please post exact changes (i.e. update notes).
