Good point re bear and apple notes - great for those fully Apple, less so for those who use more than one platform. Personally a web app is a must for me so bear is out. regarding quality of releases. I don’t know much tech wise but I think RTE exposed the coding somehow and caused all sorts of issues - I don’t think continuing to support legacy helps either. They seem to be getting on top of things now and are communicating way better - my apps (barring the glitch on Tuesday!) have been way more stable - especially the mobile ones.

Nope, I’ve not come across any. For basic stuff things like obsidian or heck even notepad do the job - but when it’s more - ocr scanning for instance none get close. Neither does OneDrive which has woeful search and someone tested google drive v Evernote on Reddit for ocr - Evernote beat it too.

I’m seeing this too, the note I was having issues with seems stuck on saving on the windows pc.

Hi, I was doing some work on a note on a windows PC, I went to use my phone to send the material to a group on whatsapp (copy and paste). Opened evernote on my phone, it syncs, I can see the text in the little highlight below the note before I open it, but when I open the note all the text is missing. Tried opening and closing on phone didnt work, now the windows Evernote says syncing paused on the note. Not sure whats going on. Edit - syncing apparently is paused on all notes on the PC - tried restarting the app with no change.

Most of that I couldn’t follow 😂 that’s no bad thing tho. I think working on the foundations is good - the app is feature rich but a little inconsistent at times. Strengthening that is good - no one wants data loss or misbehaving tasks.

Yeah, I read that. It’s amazing what the app can do when used well and it sure seems you both got the benefits of good use. I’m trying to get into the discipline of scanning and sorting things, with two kids with autism and one who also has learning disabilities we have a LOT of paperwork and appointments we need to keep on top of. A data repository where I can save everything and action what’s needed will really benefit me if I get into the discipline.

Hey figured it would be nice to actually chat about some of the things we appreciate about this app. Not doing an exhaustive list just listing something that in this moment I’m valuing - text formatting - my goodness most notes apps can’t do this well at all. By this I mean, I copy text from an email into Evernote - formatting holds, links stay links, numbers are recognised, as is email - ie all the information is recognised and actionable. Try this in other apps - nope, it’s a mess - links are lost etc. and the same works the other way, draft an email - even with tables etc, copy text paste into email - bingo it’s all there in the correct font with formatting and tables etc correctly displayed. It seems a small thing but so many apps handle this really poorly. As I save emails and then add tasks, I often write emails to send out, this consistency is essential and EN simply wrecks the rest when it comes to this.

Haha yeah, it’s entertaining - apparently I’m projecting because he is clearly not enraged but the bastion of calm.

I’ll give you this - your entertaining, it’s bizarre, as I assume your an adult but the enraged shake your fist and rant at everyone…cause notes app Argh….does have some amusement value.

Dude - grow up. I’m assuming you an adult and if so your behaviour here is embarrassing. If for some reason you felt you needed attention from users of a notes app, I hope we scratched that itch. Either way - move on! It will be better for you, more productive than behaving like an agnsty teenager.

You need to get a hobby lol. My experience differs vastly - Evernote is faster Tasks now work RTE is stable for the first time in 10 sync works consistently for me - no data loss Those are some of the experiences I’m having.

If you hate the app, and seem to not use the app, why on earth are you here posting this kinda stuff? Use what works for you, but don’t be a grown adult trolling others because they prefer something else. Come on.

10.53.1 has just came out on the AppStore for me. .53 worked really well for me so hopefully this one is the same. Menu scrolling issues are fixed which is good.

Yeah .53 is working really well for me. The most stable it’s ever been for me - I’m actually beginning to trust sync and not have to worry about data loss! Go in do some work, close app, repeat, no issues.

No, the free version is not being discontinued. It will continue as it currently has as far as we are aware. If you delete your account I would imagine that means your data would be erased yes.

95.5 sadly is known for issues, go to the website and download the latest version, came out today, it seems to resolve most of them.

They also are not silent about the issues, there have been many statements and even surveys - due to issues they admit there currently is. The idea there is silence or denial simply isn’t accurate imo.

This is the exact same issue I had. The way I resolved it - use another device to set up the 2fa - an iPad or a laptop. Do the set up on that, scan the qr code it generates with your phones chosen Authenticator- will work first time. I don’t think those codes generated on the phone system are working correctly.

Hasn’t he done exactly that on several occasions? When data was being lost during the transition to rte he was very open about the issues. The survey he recently posted admitted too there are issues. I haven’t seen anything that implies they are acting like the issues are not there, unless I’ve missed something.

How did you get that from Federico? I think it was communication! He’s posted here many times, posted surveys, blogs even given us his email, and you’re taking issue with this? Federico is factually correct - without communication the app WILL function, it doesn’t affect its functioning - bugs do. From that perspective communication is important but it is not essential.

Go to your account online and the security tab, it’s in there. You really should enable it though for the extra layer of security.

Yeah that’s the thing - all these apps look great on the surface but a bit of digging and there are concerns. The same is true with EN to be fair, but you hit it right - not from the frying pan to the fire. Bear looks great - their dev place is glacier but what they do, they do darn well. My issue with them is I work on windows and need a web app really, they have one ‘coming soon’ but that could be years away at best. Good point tho - as long as we have the enex files we have a lot of options of places we could head to if things do go south here, I’m hoping that won’t happen though, Dave Edwards latest video was quite reassuring on how determined BS are to deal with the bugs and issues as a priority.

I would urge you to check out their Facebook and their update history - a lot of frustrations, the dev seems to be one guy and it seems he went awol for a considerable time. The product looks good but there are a few red flags there too.

Goodness, gaslighting isn’t the issue here, frankly entitlement is. The limits to note sizes for free accounts have been there for years, this is nothing new. What’s new is the perspective that what other people pay for you should get for free. Come on, please be reasonable and realise this is a pretty odd position to try and take. The same rules that apply to us ought to apply to you as well.

Try it through the iPhone, that’s what I used and was having the problem with. Evernote app, extra settings, into security and doing it there. In there it doesn’t generate a qr code but a code of numbers and letters to be pasted into the authentication app, using that process didn’t work, when I tried with the iPad, which did generate the qr code it worked first time.
