This is either a bug or a feature that has been extremely frustrating ever since I switched to using a mac 18 months ago. On the mac version of Evernote, wrapping a string of words in quotation marks does not return an exact phrase search - as any other search engine would.

Instead, you get (often hundreds of) notes returned with all those words in them, but not necessarily in that order. I have run tests to see if it at least prioritises those notes that include an exact phrase match. It does not.

I love Evernote, but I have to say this is a massive drawback that affects my use of the program on a near-daily basis. I am surprised to see so few other Premium users complaining about it.

If anyone knows of a work-around or imminent fix, I would be extremely grateful to hear of it. 

 

I, too, am shocked that Evernote for Mac can't perform something so common as an exact phrase search.  This massive shortcoming seriously reduces the value that Evernote has to offer.

Is there a way to find out if anyone is working on this, or if Evernote is even aware of the problem?

I can't annotate anything.  I can't even edit the first page of any document as some of you can.  The annotation page opens upon clicking the annotation button, but the annotation tools don't replace the mouse pointer (as they should) when I click on them.  Quite frustrating since I rely on Evernote annotation capabilities to perform my professional obligations.  It's nice to read that other people have the same problem, but we need a solution! 

It would be extremely helpful to be able highlight/mark text on Evernote for iPhone and iPad. I am actually quite shocked this feature doesn't already exist. If it does currently exist, please feel free to make fun of me for not being able to find the feature within the app.
