Whatever works for you. I've tried tables in Evernote, and they were terrible. I remember using them for temporarily calculations, but ….

OK, that was then a miracle.

EN tables never had any ability for calculations. They are a layout tool, to visually structure content. 

You obviously mix up something.

You can already do this: Create a notebook that contains what you need.

Export it as an ENEX file. Save the file.

Whenever you need a copy of that notebook: Import a copy of that ENEX-File. This will create a notebook with the content you need. Just rename it and start to use the notes it holds. If you need several different notebook templates, create several ENEX-files.

Before forum users complained about too little information.

Now other users complain about too much of it.

To me it seems EN nicely hit the middle ground !

Why do you think anybody wants a replacement for Obsidian ?

Or did you mix up the forums in which you are posting 🤪 ?

Did you already try to log out of the app, then restart it and log back in ?

Sometimes changes seem to need a fresh login or a fresh client restart.

My iPhone has a free built in scan. So why pay for EverNote?
Notes app is also built in,  comparable to EN so again: why pay for EN ?
Are there other free apps like EN ?

Why don’t you use what you already have ?

No.

In many browsers you can open several tabs with an EN session. Just log into the web client in yet another browser tab.

Similar (not equal) to opening several windows with different notes.

Who knows - but I think it’s anyhow for new subscribers only.

You are on Free - no offline capability.

You need to subscribe to be iconized.

Ctrl-Q/cmd-J - enter search term - Enter

Done

You don’t even need to touch the mouse once.

Once a note is selected, the 3 dot menu is available. Outside of a note it is used for other settings, like widgets, sorting order and the like.

iOS 10.86.0 on iPhone.

No issue - double click opens a note in a new window. EN Mac direct 10.86.4.

Anything specific to these notes ? Or just slow(er) in general ?

The nuclear option is the last on my list. Before comes:

1. Quit the client, open it again
2. The same, but with a prior log-out
3. The same, but with log-out and a restart of the computer
4. The same, but with a uninstall (without nuking the database, just a fresh install of the client)
5. And then, ultimately, a full fresh install, with an initial removal using AppCleaner (Mac) or Revo Uninstaller (Win).

Simple answer: I don’t use Chrome.

And if you value your privacy, you shouldn’t either. Take a look at the balance sheet of Alphabet, the Google owner. The overwhelming part of their income is generated by „search“ - that is by companies paying Google to have their ads show first in search results. To make this valuable, it needs to be based on YOUR preferences. The same search from your neighbor will bring up different content, and different paid content.

Because Google knows you, better than yourself.

Your concern about a data protection popup is valid. But it is NOTHING compared to using products / services by one of the big data collectors that live from the insight they have: Alphabet (Google, YouTube, …), Meta (Facebook, Insta …) and Amazon. Apple collects as well for their own use (mainly app use), but they never sell the data to anybody.

This said: Just leave access for WebClipper set to always. It never does anything while it sits installed in your browser. It only activates when you click it - and you know on which sites this happens, because you are the one who makes it work.

This restriction is placed by the browser or by the OS developer - in case of Safari it’s in both cases Apple.

Your concern is not bad, actually it is the very question the dialogue wants to point at. Before this dialogue was installed, the status WAS that you granted full access, on installation of the plugin.

If you give it full access today, nothing changes compared to before. A web clipper obviously needs full access to do it’s job.

You can cut this access (you could before, but you needed to do it actively yourself), and then it simply doesn’t work any more.

It all boils down to the simple question: Do you entrust the developer (in this case EN/BS) with your data ? If not, stop using a product or service.

In case of EN it is quite simple: Their business model is to get paid by their users, and only their users. Plus they operate under GDPR restrictions, the European data protection law. If I make a ranking, they are very solidly in the „can be trusted“ segment.

It is much more important to ask this question on services where „great“ features are offered without compensation. In these cases you resp. your data are the real product.

Yes, OK. It just indicates the download status of this notebook. Black with white arrow = downloaded for offline use.

It will show as well behind the notebooks in the notebooks list view.

No. 3 Macs, all doing fine.

In the past something like that was often related to a corrupted local database.

The cure was to remove the install using AppCleaner, restart the Mac and install fresh.

To give it time for the local download, the app should be kept open in the background for an extended time, several days with large accounts.

Can’t tell for sure for the latest releases. I jumped trough that loop last summer for the last time. Had no need since.

There never was such a list, roadmap or whatever. Eternal discussion, it simply doesn’t exist. Want to know what’s next: Follow the blog, or Federico on X.

Pinting is available, basic sort. I doubt the ability to print a documents meta information is available in any app. It for sure is NOT available in most apps I use. Want it: Open Note info, make a screenshot, done.

Thanks for explaining your intentions.

What is the website, please ? I asked you to post the URL here, for a try.

Write a list of what was added - I am sure it is impressively longer than the nitty bitty detail aspects that may have been lost in transition.

If possible can you post the website ?

Try if this helps: Go to your notebooks settings, and set the default to any notebook. Then set it back to your preferred default notebook.

This has nothing to do with this thread.
