There has been no substantial increase in app performance for months. Now been waiting for over a year .. in tech industry this is eternity. I doubt they are motivated nor capable of putting things right at all. We will probably never see a clean and fast performing EN as with native legacy client again. For new users relying on Android devices I would suggest not to start using EN at all because of this. There are more performant note taking clients on Android out there.

EN10.27 is being rolled out. Just got it to my devices.Again the release notes do nothing say about bug fixing. Maybe they addressed the issue with this version. I will do some testing by myself.

Hi @clipnote I can reproduce the issue on my Android as well with EN 10.26. It looks exactly like you marked in your screen shot "Einfache Notiz" with the really hässliche ehem ugly black circle button with no appearance to EN app and nothing within it. In dark mode it is a plain black circle in light mode it is a greyish circle. Welcome to the next bug!

FYI no probs with Android 11, EN 10.26 on my two middle class Samsung devices A50, Tab A. Widgets install as agsteele described. But after that inital update they do not update anymore until app is started and in foreground. App closed = no updates on widgets anymore due to missing push sync since EN10. But this is another problem...

I figured out, they only update if you start the app manually and let it open and in foreground for some seconds to a minute... but than you are already in the app and don't need the widgets... So if you update data on another client and the app is in background or closed the widgets do never update. No kidding, it is designed as bad as that. No idea why they still haven't turned on push sync. We are in 2022 already...

I tried your link and on my device it is clipping this and other webpages as well (10.26) without probs. Let's see, what support has to say to your logs.

Just to confirm: 10.26 still does not address the image rendering bug nor any news from support about it. I don't know, why they don't care. Same images sometimes are shown, sometimes not (error: could not be rendered properly). Very bad if needed on the go, imagine you want to show a qr code or something and then this... already happened to me. My actual workaround: having a weekly updated import of the most important notes (via ENEX) in Nimbus Note which renders images fast and without probs on the same device. Gives me peace of mind and practice with potential alternative.

Update: I crashed again on this bug with the new EN 10.25. Just opened a ticket. The image rendering bug was again instantly confirmed by support, while still not have a time table of a fix! Not being able to fix this basic bug within 14 months shows they got stuck in their new limiting framework. I am afraid there is nothing to expect anymore from this Evernote.

I would first suggest raising a ticket, as you are a victim of a bug. As you are a paying customer it is worth a try. Note history is one of the big advantages of Evernote over other services, one of the few actual reasons to maybe pay for the service. Maybe you consider an upgrade as well as PinkElephant described.

Exactly my point. EN on Android until 8.13.3 could download the offline notebooks lightning fast for years. Now with the new "ever better" product EN 10.X the download of the exact same notes lasts hours or days what was done in seconds or minutes before - and you have to force your screen to be on for the whole time. Otherwise nothing is downloaded. If evolving means pulling the brakes hard, that is simply ridiculous. The whole offline design seems to be a programming failure, since 10.0 - 13 months - exactly none development on that. Clearly shows they don't care about the paying customers... 😞

I see this frequently even still with 10.24. It does not matter if jpeg oder another image file format. It is a bug of the software / EN system that support confirmed to me too many months ago but is unable or unmotivated or what ever to dive into as with many issues. Possible workarounds: cold-restart the app, if this does not work even restart device. Cache clearing/fresh install does not help. After a fresh install you (at least me) get exactly zero images displayed in your notes for the first 1-2 hours after setting up the app. To me it seems to be a design bug on how the EN servers perhaps pre-process and than deliver image data to the app or it's cache. But only guessing, obviously even EN devs don't know how to fix permanently.

Was not aware of this restriction as I have longer titles. Just tested with 150+ characters. Worked without problems. Don't know the exact limit. What source do you refer to?

Hi to you all folks, and happy new year. I just installed EN 10.23.1 on another device and was faced again with stuck offline notebook download. 3 notebooks, all together around 20 notes. Only the frequent stuff. EN8.13. did this in seconds. I could not believe they did not fix this bug, which we saw since the very 10.0 - 13 months ago. I opened a ticket again, and guess what... they are still working on a fix.... well the exact same answer as with my original ticket 11 months ago... As the even are not capable to fix main paid features I more and more get the impression they really got stuck in their framework experiment. Very sad. 😞

Exactly that was the motivation Evernote wanted the user to believe. Not very surprisingly the Electron framework turned out to be the sluggish prison the Evernote app is living in since 12.2020 from the very beginning. Man, we are almost in 2022 now. I can see no way, they could evolve a really future proof product from out of this locked-in position. Adding features in a sluggish and unresponsive framework for what? I am really sorry, 13 months of going down, now rating at 3.4 😞 the green elephant did not deserve this disaster.

The inability to pin notes to the top of notebook list view is clearly a missing feature. In addition Evernote still does not allow to sort manually in notebooks. So manually naming notes "1..., 2....., 3...." and so on as a workaround ? .... come on 2022 is coming! Upvoted it.

Voted this up as well. As Evernote is running an interesting additional approach to add tasks to rich notes, opening up the API would be very nice to enhance real task management with rich note taking of Evernote. Would highly appreciate it.

Exactly my understanding of bad programming, too. Releasing a software which is designed on a foundation that literally excludes average devices is actually bad. I can open a note with 30 screen shots and some text in it in OneNote App within around 2 seconds (cannot time it correctly, it is too fast😄), Evernote gives me around 60-70 seconds to display the note... that is bad! Fortunately the average user base reflects this pretty well to Evernote in play store commenting and rating (already down to 3.4 btw). I wonder if/when they overcome to tackle the transition of the time critical code out of the sluggish framework.

Thank you @matej1990 tried both suggestions together (lock app and disable all battery optimization). Tested on two Samsung devices (A50 and TabA). After some time (minutes) in the background Evernote cold starts when called again from android home screen. I would not mind if that would not last 5-10 seconds each time, real bad UX since EN10.

In the EN app go to preferences / support

Welcome to the forums. The behaviour is seen by many users. It seems due to bad programming design (having zero capabilities to handle being in the background, therefore almost always cold starting, no straight sync and so on...). If it really corrupts your workflow I would suggest raising a ticket.

Just clean reinstalled Evernote on two Samsung devices with EN 10.22 and the image rendering bug is back again 😞 Every note I open denies to show any embedded image. Fun fact: EN 10.22 had no problems showing all these notes prior fresh installing. I am giving up on Evernote for Android. For a paid product, it is ridiculous having to deal with software, that cannot simply show some pictures. Sadly @Shane D. last update on this was in April 2021 would be nice to hear, if anyone is considering to bugfix this finally?! ticket# 3422123

Hi there. Thank you for sharing your discovery. Checked this on my Samsung A50 and Tab A. Could not experience any improvement on that devices unfortunately. On which devices are you running EN?

Exactly, on windows you could choose how many languages you want and need for simultaneously checking in editor. I had this activated, too. After one year of EN 10 out, I have little hope they will ever address this with EN10+.

I suggest sending your need for this option via the in-built support feedback option to let Evernote know. The more feedback the more likely they will consider re-adding it.

I experience this as well. I think, they simply did not implement dark mode to any Android widget yet, as the Android widgets seem to be at the end of the priority list. Maybe you suggest this feature via the feedback function within the app. I will do this as well.
