  1. AFAIK Notion requires an active internet connection. And goooodbye ….
  2. From my experience the blue dot usually shows on apps or extensions that have recently been updated.
  3. Would you please name an app (consumer grade) that sends proactively emails to its entire user base whenever there is an issue detected in that app ? Thank you !
  4. With 121 posts (the later ones about an issue that most users won’t ever have, because they don’t wrap a single note into a notebook) I would say there is room for improvement. You are welcome here, the forum can’t have enough fellow users who enjoy writing about their experience. Even if it is about exotic use cases, like exporting a single note by stuffing it into an individual notebook.
  5. The discussion is pointless. If you don’t use tags, you miss a lot of possibilities. It’s like driving a Porsche, but keeping yourself between 1st and 2nd gear. About the initial issue: You have been advised to contact support. I think that’s in fact your next best step. Workaround: Rename the file created by the export.
  6. Same reason for me - correcting smart ass filing takes more time than doing it myself.
  7. How long - 12 years by now ? Given the current situation with some urgently awaited bug fixes, I wouldn’t bet to see it any time soon.
  8. No, the only wildcards I am aware of are * (any string) and ? (any character). Wildcards can’t be used at the start of a search string.
  9. It is a completely separate company, servers are behind the Great Firewall, backup is courtesy of the Chinese government. It was split off when any company operating servers in China was forced to install a backdoor.
  10. No expert is „on duty“ here - all the experts are just other users, maybe with a little more expertise.
  11. EN iOS is on 10.52.1 already, since „23 hours“ now - explained with „some bugfixes“. So maybe they stopped 10.52 for Android for a reason.
  12. Usually notebooks are a secondary tool to organize in EN. I use tags to organize - much better, because a note can hold several tags at the same time. If you are committed to notebooks (folders), EN is probably not the best solution anyhow.
  13. Tags will import - if the receiving app knows what to do about them, that’s the key issue. In EN tags are the main, dominant organization feature. And this you don’t „add“ to an import routine between coffee break and lunch by having you 2 devs write a little code. You need to build it into the foundation of your app to make it work with similar outcome as it works in EN. If you used tags in EN, and want/need to continue doing so in your „next“ app, you better try if and how it works with a test set of some exported notes. You will find a significantly smaller choice of apps to test.
  14. If you export a notebook with just a single note, you do a single note export. The only thing that looks weird to me about it is to have a notebook with just a single note in it. This doesn’t look efficient at all.
  15. @BASboy Either you have better sources than we have, or you should be careful to spread gossip. EN was for example running on servers rented in Google data centers. They don’t need to move anything from a basement in their former HQ to keep accounts online. What we can assume without much phantasy is that support has a pretty busy time …
  16. No. The ability to send something via email doesn’t mean it Is a full email server. Send a copy to your own email address if you need to receive it. Or better don’t (ab)use a sharing of notes to replace an email setup.
  17. There is a mentioning of Sketch in the release notes for 10.52 - just not sure if it means exactly this issue: You can give it a try once it becomes available in the PlayStore.
  18. Thanks for the workaround under the current sync. Not sure this is related to this thread, because all other entries are predating the RTE release. This means whatever cause the issue back then, it was not caused by converting notes to the RTE sync data structure. But fine you found this workaround for now, with RTE sync.
  19. Don't know who is lying here ... support works, they just have a delay to react due to the volume of tickets. Will maybe take longer than the usual bunch of hours. Chat has been discontinued before - when ticket volume it up, serving a chat beside the tickets is simply not possible. So they tell when they take it down (and it's down), and they will tell when it comes back online. Good you got your email notification - gives you full 4 weeks to decide about what to do. But you knew before, so just a formality.
  20. Apple Notes has no tag management to speak of, and tags are there only very rudimentary. You can practically create a tag by typing "#tagword" into a note, and it will be recognized as a tag. You can use it to select notes, but not much more.
  21. 10.52 got released for iOS days ago. It was rolled out fast, but when I read the list of fixes, most of them don't apply to the iOS client. It does what it always does since EN iOS 10.6 - it works pretty well, in general. We could have lived with 10.51 for a while. No idea what keeps the PlayStore from updating.
  22. Purely anecdotal. If I judge from my history with BS: I joined Splice (video editor) when it still belonged to GoPro. BS has acquired it, and it got professionalized since. One of the most active apps in terms of regular releases. On the other hand "old" EN bought Penultimate, Scannable and Skitch just to let them rot away. We may even be better off ...
  23. It is in general never a bad idea to keep notes smaller - makes handling easier as well. Instead of a continuous daily log for years and years in a single note, split it up into years or better months. It allows for some nice structuring as well, and it is easier to find a short note than a certain text inside of a longish note. On the other hand, I don't experience any correlation between note size and energy consumption. There is (not surprisingly) a correlation between actions (like adding an attachment) and energy consumption / CPU usage. But it peaks briefly, and then falls back nicely. A continuously high level of consumption can only be caused by a chunk of code being executed again and again (acas a loop). This is never a regular code execution and must be treated, if necessary by replacing the whole local install by a fresh download.
  24. Since I don't have the problem, this is from observation, not from experience: Even when it goes contrary to a seamless syncing, I would currently avoid to have more than 1 client open at any time. Work on the desktop - close mobile first, and vice versa. It may help to take the desktop offline before editing - then take it back online after the editing is done. Try to use the web client instead of the desktop for a while ?
  25. @RobertJLee This discussion is completely beside the point. You are charged X, if for thin hot air or anything that provides value is ENTIRELY up to yourself. Because you have decided to subscribe yourself - or was a gun pointed at your head ? No value, drop it. Valuable - watch for alternatives. Anything comparable with a better price - switch. Nothing similar - OK, you are doomed (if you choose to view it this way). Or blessed, because you can solve a problem, and it will only cost you some money.
