GibyLovesEvernote

I've been experiencing issues with receiving email reminders from Evernote since July, or perhaps even earlier. While I have received some reminders intermittently, I would estimate that the success rate is only about 40%. However, things have taken a turn for the worse since the beginning of this month. The success rate has dropped to around 10%, with only about 1 out of every 10 reminders actually making it to my mailbox. The email reminder feature has always been one of my favorite aspects of Evernote, and I would greatly appreciate it if this issue could be addressed or, at the very least, looked into. For reference, I primarily use the Android app and also access Evernote via the web version on both Windows and MacOS. While I have noticed almost no notifications on my Android 12.0 device, it's not a major concern if the email reminder function is working correctly. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thanks. Maybe I will make a new post in this forum.

Hi @agsteele Thank you for your comment. I have tried what you suggested but unfortunately, I can not write a support ticket because I am not a paid user. 😕

Hello @Scott T. and all who care about this topic. I have a very similar issue since July or even earlier. I do not get reminder emails as expected BUT, sometimes, I did got some reminders, I would say the successful rate is about 50%. However, since the beginning of this month, the situation is getting worse, the successful rate is about 25%. Only 1 out of 4 reminders arrived my mail box. It would be appreciated if it could be fixed. BTW, I use Android version and also the web version on Windows/MacOS. I got almost no notification in my Android which seems to be a known symptoms, but I am fine if the email reminder works. Best, Giby

YES, after the pandemic goes, more and more people will notice for sure! YES, let's keep putting pressure on them. We love the app very much... but when this v10 update came up, it is a nightmare.

Dear all, although the Windows version may have the same problem, I have posted my question/request in the Mac forum. Please have a look. If you like, please up vote. Thanks!

One more scenario, I am used to write and read Evernote a lot during my flight while I am offline. In that case, this energy problem will force me do rethink my habit or, change to the other alternative. After CONVID-19 settles down and more people can fly, MUCH MORE MacOS users will notice this problem, if not now. That's why I call it CRITICAL, very critical.

Thanks for the post, yes, I have heard that they use Electron as the framework... I wish that they have workaround. (BTW, by making it a web app, their development cost will be lower for sure...)

Happy New Year! I love Evernote so much that I think I should sit down and write a report, again. (I posted in November in the other forum/section and had found that I should post it here in the MacOS section) ○The fact about power/energy consumption Here is my post again, with few modifications. // ~~~~~ begin ~~~~~ In October 2020, I switched from my old MacOS(Serria) to Mojave with old Evernote and, updated Evernote to the latest version, v10.0.10. I enjoyed very much the dark theme. Thank you very much! I love Evernote so much that, except web browsers, Evernote is almost the 1st application I have to install for my daily use. However , after using it for 2 weeks, I think I should write a report to you. Obviously, there are few things that was not as good as the old version. 4) Bug#1 - system or note loading When I double click any note on the list of notes, the pop-window shows nothing except that there is the name of the note on the title bar of the window. I need to restart the app to avoid the bug. 3) Bug#2 searching Even I use the shortcut "command + alt + F ", as shown on the menu, it doesn't show any search box. 2) Slow loading/GUI The response time of searching and GUI (probably loading of note) is slower than the old version. 1) Energy consumption - ***a VERY SERIOUS problem*** ★★★ Obviously, the current version consumes MORE energy than the old version. Attached please find the screenshot of "Activity", it shows that Evernote consumes MORE energy than Zoom and Firebox! The average energy climbs up to double digits! In the old version, both of these situations NEVER happened! I can not understand that a note app can consume more energy than the two apps above which do more complicated things. BTW, I am used to open two to three notes at the same time within the app. If you need, I can reproduce the problem to you again since it happens very often. From time to time, I enjoy using my Mac in cafe for four or more hours without any electric supply, so this a very fatal problem for me. What's more, the battery life of my laptop is LIMITED. // ~~~~~ end ~~~~~ ○What I can do If it is necessary, I have the following prepared on my Mac books to help your analyze the problem. - XCode and some modules -MacOS Mojove -whatever you like, please suggest. ○My background as a user 200x I used to use Outlook for memo on my Windows Mobile Few years later, I switched to Google Note but after few years, the service was terminated. 2011 On my 1st Android phone, I started to use Evernote, and also the app on Windows 2013 On my 1st mac book, I started to use Evernote. 2020 Nov/Dec After my report above, I updated to 10.2.4 but I could not find any improvement. In Nov/Dec, I updated to 10.4.4 but it still remains unchanged. I gave up to use the client around Dec 16th because of the new limit for Basic Plan user. Maybe I should choose to download an older version of Evernote, pay for it and wait but... it won't help in long term. ○My feeling as a long-term user Today, I have just briefly read your CEO interview in engadget.com, called "evernote-cross-platform-note-taking-app-redesign-interview". I understand that you rebuild everything and you have the reasonsssss behind. I hope you still care your users so far and I hope I won't need to switch to the other app for memo. Unlike Skype/Hotmail/etc, I hope you can still keep independent, small and smart. BTW, since the new limit of number of devices for Basic Plan user is imposed in Nov/Dec, I have uninstalled the app on MacOS. I don't mind to pay if, someday, the MacOS client is improved but, until that time, I am going to use it from the browser whenever I can go online. (I mean someday, I still hope to use the **improved** client offline) Best wishes from an Evernote lover. #PowerConsumption #EnergyConsumption #BatteryLife

I wish that the reason behind is not Electron or any framework they use.... I wish.

FYI, I updated to 10.2.4 today and the situation seems to be the same.

Today I checked it again on my Safari on Mojove and it works now! THANK YOU!

No reminder setting yet... 2020 -0925...... It used to be there in the "old" version but I cannot switch to there anymore.
