  1. The app isn’t capable of replacing a laptop version I’m afraid. Not just for some of what you raised but also features like merge note are currently missing too. The app also suffers from the bug where it refreshes every time you leave it to read something else then return to it. In the iPad I get around that by using split screen which works fine. The app is great on the iPad in many ways don’t get me wrong but some key things are currently missing.

    I hope you are right.. but almost exactly one year ago I grabbed a similar deal, with exactly the same expectation. A year later, still no new version and still the same bugs in the existing apps.

    Yeah, it does seem there has been some pretty big delays. My hope is that we see some change soon, I’m trying to get into the iOS beta to see how it is, will wait and see if that happens. I’m learning a system of notes and tags that is really working for me so I do hope that they get things going soon as I don’t know any other notes app that has a similar system and I mess about with them all lol. 

  3. I’ve just grabbed the 40% for a year deal and I’m happy to give the year. In that time I expect the updated release of all clients and for greater stability. I do think they are working hard to do this so I’m not too worried but things like the iOS app refreshing every time I leave the screen to multitask must be resolved by the new version or I would have to review the app I use. 

  4. I would echo what others have said - if you have found something you feels suits your usage better then better going for that. 
     

    If it’s down to frustration due to waiting, which isn’t always easy then I would say wait it out. I don’t know of another notes app that has the flexibility of stacks and tags and for me that is the fundamental feature I’m using a lot as I settle back into Evernote (I was a subscriber and have just returned).

    The new app seems to be many months late but I agree, I am waiting for the new app too. If the problem is not resolved then i will abandon Evernote. It is a shame that the forums are not read by Evernote staff otherwise someone would at least have said that the issue has been resolved for the new app.

    Yeah, the issue is, for the system I have been developing based on the secret weapon Evernote works perfectly. I am also using it for productivity though as a catchment for everything and that’s where there is this issue.  Hopefully it’s resolved, I am willing to wait it out a bit as they do seem to be trying to improve overall stability.

    Hopefully you're being sarcastic here! I can't think what the last new feature was, let alone one that was useful and in support of Evernote's "your knowledge store, everywhere" mission.

    Like Zoom has done, Evernote need to pivot immediately to focus on nothing but getting the mobile apps working as well as they used to, you know, how it worked when we all signed up to put our lives' data in to this service.

    The current Evernote mobile app is being phased out with the new one. I am encountering this really frustrating issue too and about it refreshing which is really frustrating when using Evernote for email. 
     

    My question is then more does the new app which is in beta still have this issue. If so then I think I would need to try another platform, if it doesn’t have this issue I’ll grind it out and wait.

    Likewise (attachments to notes) , mostly MS Word   
    I can send the attachment to colleagues

    Have you got a system with this and Evernote? I am just back to Evernote today grabbing the 40% discount for the year. I might just have to use copy and paste though I don’t know how well that will play out. 

  8. Hi I was wondering if it’s in the pipeline to vastly increase the export options for notes? I would really appreciate being able for instance to export to pdf so I can send a note as a file or as a docx file. I know a fair few of the other notes platforms do this and it would be really handy. I work in attachments for work and I know if I was to send Evernote links or the content in the email body I would very quickly have an irritated group of colleagues.

    No experience with Android.

    The recent iOS issues got sorted out fine. Maybe the same guys are just now working on the Android client (hope so, a lot of forum traffic at the moment is angry stuff about the Android client).

    I use the Android app, there are no issues with the app at all in my experience it works well.  Never observed any glitches or sync issues on it, it works as you would expect it too.  Just someone trolling it seems.

    I messed around with other apps - Devonthink, notebooksapp etc.   I have to say, the EN just works better for me.  I can get exactly what i want easily from it.  I will say that the ios phone app is my least favorite part of the experience, but I keep coming back to the desktop app as it just works.

    Im on the green text side, I dont mind the Android app much, it works as I would hope.  My only slight frustration is the inability to add a new row to a table, though I am not going to worry to much about it as it seems there is a lot of work going on to unify the various note experiences into one more cohesive.  I like the control I have for offline notebooks and also background sync too.  Its not very often I am not in a data area but nice to know if I am it wont be too much an issue.

  11. Hi all, aware that there is often a lot of leaving posts so figured I would post a returning one. I used to subscribe to premier I think it was called but have been away for a year or so. Returning and have subscribed again for the following reasons - 

    background sync on mobile

    templates for new notes

    good mobile apps

    the use of tabs 

    Will use extensively over the next several months and see how things go. Only concern so far is that I am unable to add new rows to tables on mobile? This is a bit of a problem when using the meeting template on an ipad.
