In general, I agree about giving the dev more time and I've not been able to find any articles backing up the claim they've let the Evernote employees go. Didn't spend tons of time, but nothing immediately came up. Had a good look at Bending Spoons web site and found the following: - They're web site is pretty flashy. - Looks like they're pretty much 100% mobile (phone and tablet) - They seem to be very expensive.. As in many of their In App Purchases are ~$7.99-$9.99 per week. That's worrisome. My general concern, and this is speculation is that Evernote is going to turn into a super premium product. How the heck else can they differentiate? This is going to take a lot of time. I'm a basic note taker and really not that great at using Evernote. Tends to be my place to sort of dump things and move on. Not the greatest habit. I've started looking at others and find them cleaner, more simple, and more modern feeling. Not going to mention any here because it doesn't matter. Net Net: Agreed on giving time. But looking at BeSp's current business model, I'm packing my parachute just in case. But, hoping they make it a great product again.

FYI- 10.6.9 became available in the App Store today and appears to have fixed the bug. Go Evernote!

Quick question: Which do you like that still let you host locally. Of all that I've looked at, Evernote is still superior, but for these sensitive notes, which do you use. Hate to say it, I'm keeping stuff in Pages on my Mac. Sad, but very flexible when assigning text as topics and creating a sidebar for my index.

I'm on 10.5.7 which didn't fix it. I did open a ticket, but they needed logs which I'm unable to submit. So, I'm just sort of in a hurry up and wait mode which isn't a big deal: The web version is just as good and this is only for info that I'm able to host. Again, I'm not really bashing Evernote: They are in a tough spot in a tough business. It's still superior in a tons of ways.

Agree all around. When I said they rightfully took a break over the holidays, this is exactly what I meant: They have really done a lot of work over a short time. And I really do like the new client but I'm not a forever legacy user: Just sort of basic note taking and info storage. And yes, very much agree about changing things on people with no notification: This is the new Silicon Valley way :^)

Evernote has not updated the App. They sort of dumped the broken App and then ran away for the holidays and haven't looked back. Can't really blame them (except for the broken App). Unfortunately, I've been forced to separate from Evernote which is a real bummer. I have a lot of data that is not allowed to be hosted on 3rd party servers. When Evernote switch to version 10 (which I actually like BTW), they very quietly removed any local option and even more dirty, they moved local stuff to their servers with no notification. I know most do this, but it was a great differentiator of Evernote and they should have very loudly told users they were doing this (naughty). Will return once I no longer need to have everything local only. Good luck with Evernote: They seem to be in some challenging times and hope they figure all this out.

Ugh... This is a real bummer. I've been a premium subscriber even though I really don't need to be just to support EN. But my company absolutely will not let me use Evernote if data is not local. I'm so so sad BC this means EN is no longer a viable option. Hope they realize that this is important to users, but I'm guessing this is permanent.

Quick Update: Looks as though some notebooks are missing data inside the web version as well. Hope this data isn't gone forever: Is there an Evernote wide problem ATM? Thx!

Hello- Evernote was working fine, just updated to 10.5.6 and now when I try to view a notebook, I get "Sorry, we’re having some trouble.". Tried restarting, etc... still getting this no matter what. Evernote now unusable. Web data is still available and viewable. Fix available? M1 MBP, 11.1 Thx!

Hello All- Thanks for the info and recommendations. Guess my question was more along the lines of: Is this the local option coming back and I'm reading a resounding: No 😀. I don't really mind the version 10 update since I'm not a power user (just basic note taking and organization). But EN should have notified users that what was local is now automatically in the cloud. I plan in still using EN but some things will be moved off Evernote. I also agree with the comment that most all of these solutions are not local. Thanks!

Whoops, sorry, found this: https://evernote.com/privacy But still curious about the lack of Local Notebooks. I'm not entirely sure what this means for privacy. I took comfort knowing some notebooks were not online. Thx!

Hello- Thank you for your help with this. I'm not an Evernote power user but am committed to trying to use Evernote 10. One thing I've noticed is that when I create a new Notebook, I'm no longer given the local option. Question is: What does this mean for privacy and search ability of my personal information? Is Evernote information now public, searchable, and should be considered insecure and public? How is Evernote now using all notebook Data since there are no longer any local Notebooks? Where can I find information from Evernote on how people's notes are indexed, accessed, etc? Many thanks!

Nice! I thought this might be the case and meant to ask if a redevelopment was underway. Thank you for supporting the Mac! I'm old enough to have lived through the days where no one wrote great software for the Mac. Thus, I appreciate when companies do. Will subscribe now just to show support. Thanks!

Hello- Hope you're well. I'm thinking of purchasing an Evernote subscription. Don't really need the features, but want to pay for what I use. The question is: Is Evernote still updating/supporting the native Mac client? Looks like the last update was about 9mo ago. I'm not complaining about the app, it works fine for me. It's more a matter of worried that I'd pay for something that is not a high priority for Evernote. Any thoughts? Many Thanks and have a nice day.
