Agree with Gavin, allowing the user to access and export the GPS data would be very help.  Linking to Google Maps would be great, but a complete solution would allow the user to copy the GPS coordinates to be used in any GPS-enabled app, such as GPS Tracks.  Should require minimal development, and creates massive value.

Ideally, would see some statement from Evernote that they plan to keep GPS data and allowing users to enter it (even if Atlas is dead), so that both users and developers know that Evernote is a safe place to put data that relies on GPS coordinates.  I've found "Idea Places" works very well and lets me keep using Evernote, but I'm worried that the company may not be committed to letting me continue using such a solution long term.

This thread has been going for a long while now with no reaction from Evernote - which is fairly typical.. the company has never felt the need to justify its operational choices.  Their ball - their rules.  It does seem to indicate that there's little chance of seeing a return of the 'official' Atlas - which may have been dropped because of other geolocation services being developed by thrd parties.

There are apps like IdeaPlaces which offer mapping 'extension' features for Evernote;  and additional services like Google's geolocation mapper which might form part of a work around process.  Some web searches might help you build something useful

Thanks!  Seems like a great alternative.  Has Evernote stated any commitment to keeping the current support to add GPS coordinates or addresses?  (ie, any risk they kill the 3rd party options too?)

Yes please!  As a photographer, I need location based notes to plan landscape shoots.  Without this feature, Evernote is effectively of no use to me.  The map design never had all the features it really needed to be highly engaging.  If the customer usage was low, I am sure it was do to design limitations, not because people don''t value taking location based notes (travel, photography, etc).

Anyone know of an alternative service that offers this?  I need to move beyond Evernote.  I'm assuming they won't revisit this.

I'm seeing this as well on OSX.  I cannot copy even simple text from Gmail into Evernote (ie, a one line sentence I emailed to myself, with not changes in formatting at all).

I contacted support, and rather than confirm that they were doing anything about this, asked me to go to this forum and add my experience here.  Sad.  Not getting my hopes up that they'll fix this simple and obvious bug.
