I think it's important to point out that this is how companies are developing new products today. Gone are the days where companies spend years developing a full-featured product before releasing it. With the ability to quickly release features to users (instead of having to print and ship CDs), companies now create MVPs and iterate on them based on customer feedback. This greatly reduces the risk that a company spends time and money developing the wrong thing. It's important to gauge user sentiment and market acceptance of what you're trying to create. This is 100% the direction we want to take Tasks. We actively listened to the feedback from the Beta and Early Access users. Key features quickly rose to the top and we are actively investigating how to build them out and improve Tasks. We have no intention of just leaving the Task feature as-is with no further development. Please continue to provide us feedback and we hope to sway the nay-sayers who aren't happy with the first version. It's an evolving product that I think will get a lot better.

None of the existing accounts would be auto-switched to Professional since it's a newer, higher-priced tier. Yeah, we're already looking into getting this swapped properly.
-
Thanks, we're actively looking into this now. In the meantime, please try logging out and back in and let me know if that solves the issue.

@mada74Personal is the same as Premium. Those users that were on current Premium plans were converted automatically to Personal. Please refer to this link that shows the plans.

@gazumpedWhere are you seeing it show you as Professional? Can you give me a screenshot?

You can assign to any email address. The user will receive an email notification about the task being shared. If they're already an Evernote subscriber, they can log in and it'll automatically show up in their Tasks view under the "Assigned" tab. Non users will be able to view the Task in a special web view (similar to when you share a note publicly) that doesn't even require signing up. They can mark the task completed within that view. If they sign up for an account, they'll be able to then see it in their Tasks view.

@aweinstein100Can you please provide some more details so we can help figure out what is going on? Is the screenshot above from your mobile device or desktop? After the tasks disappeared in the mobile device, do they still appear in the desktop or did those become Untitled as well? Did you edit the note in any way in the mobile desktop, or did they show up as Untitled as soon as you opened the note? What versions of the desktop and mobile versions are you using?

Tasks Early Access (partially) disappeared
Scott T. replied to cyberry's question in [Closed] Tasks Early Access
Please try shutting down the app and restarting. There seems to be an issue for a small subset of users that can cause the app to believe that the Tasks feature should be disabled. Restarting should force the app to check again and show Tasks. -
@efmikeThanks for pointing this out. I think we had a miss when it comes to accessibility use cases for Tasks. I will raise this as an issue and try to get it addressed soon.

Ability to hide a Task when completed
Scott T. replied to JoeSmoe's question in General Feature Requests
Cut and paste of tasks works, though I'll admit that the highlighting of tasks is a bit weird and can be improved. I think we'll work to make that better. To cut and paste, make sure that you see the blue box around the task(s) as you highlight them. You can copy or cut and then paste into a different note. All the metadata should get cut/copied as well. Works in both desktop and mobile, though admittedly harder to select tasks in mobile. -
It's a design aesthetic and not unique to Evernote. Spark mail (a very popular Mac email client) does the exact same thing. Here's a partial screenshot from my Mac in light mode. Not saying that it's the right or wrong thing to do, but just pointing out that it's definitely a design decision.

Ability to hide a Task when completed
Scott T. replied to JoeSmoe's question in General Feature Requests
Thank you, this helped clarify things. I thought you meant drag and drop within the same note. I am able to reproduce the behavior you are seeing. I checked and this matches the behavior of other items you might try to drag between notes, such as text, photos, etc. I would be hesitant to introduce a change that would be different than other items. Nonetheless, I've brought it up to our project manager to consider. If you want to move a task, for now you can either: In the tasks view, click on the task to open the task editor and click on the move icon next to the note name to change the containing note. In the editor, click the "..." next to a task to open the task editor and click on the move icon next to the note name to change the containing note. In the tasks view, drag and drop the task to another note within the tasks view -
@SoapmThanks, so your screenshot is what I see as well in both 10.13.4 and 10.15.6. Are you saying the left column used to be lighter? I'm pretty sure it's always been a dark color, regardless of light or dark mode, but I admittedly always use dark mode. I do notice that it gets a darker black if I switch to dark mode.
-
One more question. For the people who get the "unassigned this task" emails, are they users within the Evernote Business account, or external non-EB accounts? Scratch that. Currently not possible to assign to non-members.

Hi @Websnail, can you give more context on the shared note so that we can reproduce the problem? Some information to include: Is this a shared note, shared notebook, or a note in a space? At what permissions level is the note, notebook, or space shared to everybody? Or are there different permissions? Does it happen when anybody marks the task complete? Or only the assignee? Does the person marking the task complete have different permissions than others in the note? Where is the task being marked complete? In the Tasks view or within the shared note? Does it matter for this issue to occur? Anything you can do to help us would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Can somebody please provide screenshots of what you're seeing? I tested 10.13.4 and 10.15.6 on both Mac and Windows and I am not seeing a change in the left navigation while Light Mode is selected. There's probably something I'm missing with your configuration that is causing you to have a problem.

Ability to hide a Task when completed
Scott T. replied to JoeSmoe's question in General Feature Requests
Can you provide additional information? Drag and drop should definitely not be duplicating the task. Are you doing this within the note editor? If possible, I'd love to see a video of what you are seeing so I can try to reproduce. -

The team is looking into the right way to do this. Need to make sure it's a good user experience. -
Go to Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Text Size and try moving the slider to the left to decrease the text size. Once you've done that, if you go back to the Evernote app, the button to continue should hopefully be visible. You can put your setting back afterwards.

Please reconsider new Note/Task Menu UX
Scott T. replied to Atirez's question in [Closed] Tasks Early Access
We actually tested that out during internal testing and numerous employees were inadvertently triggering the menu when they moused over to get to the navigation below it, like home, shortcuts, notes, etc. I personally found it very frustrating because I kept accidentally creating notes/tasks when I wanted to click a navigation button. The frequency with which the feedback came up from independent employees was enough to remove that as an option. -
100% this. The fragmentation in the Android market is absolutely insane. The number of possible hardware, screen size, and OS (standard and custom) combinations is absolutely insane compared to Apple.

Thanks for the detailed bug report and screenshot. I was able to reproduce this and filed a ticket.
