An audio file ? Could be anything, but I assume you mean an audio grabbing created by the desktop client. EN uses different file formats to create audio files, depending on the client used. See the table at the end of this help article. https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/208314418 I think it has no logic behind this decision - it is one of the few issues where platform interoperability is broken.

It obviously was not updated. There is no newer article about the topic, so it probably never got attention. A support ticket max help to fix it.

No issues (except on some pages that are hard to clip, like paywalled stuff). From what you describe the web clipper is lacking the necessary authorizations. See in extensions and system settings that the clipper and the EN app have all the necessary rights. Another problem can be caused by adblockers or antitracking extensions that may interfere. If running any, disable them one by one to find the culprit.

Before we think about what could be done, you should read this: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/208313828 This works for all accounts. On Professional & Business Accounts some additional search capabilities are available: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/4405520390291 They allow to build more complex searches. In general a better approach is to use a combination of filters to reach a refined search result. The last step is nearly always to select a note from a few notes left in search results. EN search is not build to deliver that one note, it is build to deliver a short list where looking through is faster than adding yet another search parameter. All search parameters work in an AND relation (unless the ANY operator is used) - this usually narrows down the list pretty fast when an additional search term is added.

If there are only a few known words you want to exclude, you can as well use the „-„ operator: wall -wallace will find all wallxxxx‘s (including wall), but will exclude uncle Wallace 🥸 from the search. Sorry, Wally, you’re out !

The EN software is not OpenSource, and only compiled versions are distributed. So legally it is a no go - and technically senseless. EN is based on the interaction between the installed client and the cloud server and it’s functions. To install a beta client is pointless unless you can sync it with your EN account. And at this point this requires access to the beta program. Currently the way to use EN on Linux without entering the beta is through the web client. Works for me even on a tiny Raspberry Pi.

Sorry, but this answer is not completely true. There is an upgrade path from a classical 7.14 (on windows 6.25) installation to a v10 client. It converts the local database to a completely cloud based master copy. This is important in case local notebooks were used. The upgrade process leads through a) backing up and removing all local notebooks that should not be moved to the server b) move all other local notebooks to the server and convert them into standard, cloud based notebooks. After running this procedure, there is no old client left on the Mac (PC), all data is moved to the cloud and a new v10 client is running on the machine. If the user wants a legacy client as well, it is after converting installed fresh on the Mac/PC. And yes, this is completely independent, running on its own database. This means it will take up the same space in addition to what the v10 client is already using on your drive. It will sync through the same cloud database as v10. New content types like tasks will show in legacy as „not available“. https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047889214 https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052560314-Install-an-older-version-of-Evernote

Personally I doubt it will be that easy - I think the extra layer of code added by the framework shields the app running inside from outside contacts. It is not only Siri, shortcuts are not working neither, and on the Mac AppleScript fails to run. This looks as something very basic, probably not easy to fix, if at all.

The forum is user2user. If you want to send an idea to EN, use the feedback function in the clients.

iPhone 11 Pro max, iOS 15.5, EN iOS 10.34. Time from hitting the EN app icon to open Home screen: 3 seconds Time from hitting the new note button until new note is ready to type, with app open: Below 2 seconds Time from hitting the new note button in the widget, app closed, until ready to type: 3 seconds Yes, measuring time may tell that there are apps that are still faster. But for all practical reasons, EN iOS is as fast as anybody will ever need. Disclaimer: On older devices it will not match these times. We run it on an iPhone 6S+, which I would evaluate as usable, but not fast.

Not everybody will be happy when an app gets a major update. If you don't change anything, you don't need to update. Or as you say: You can't bake a fresh omelette without breaking some eggs. It is always the long term, intense users who notice the largest impact on their workflows. We have discussed that the area used to show the filters is not wasted - it has functionality behind it, and it is part of the search and filter options. Not everybody will use it, some for employing other workflows, some for not knowing what it does, and can do. But this is normal for any complex app - there will always be functions that only a part of the users will utilize. If you want an app with less functions, and by that less complexity, then you seem to have made the right move.

Does not sound like a widget malfunction to me - sounds more like general problem. But hard to tell from the description. If it is not too long ago (no idea how long the activity log is kept), you could contact support and have them check the activity log file. Use the very device with the problem to create the support ticket - the activity log from that device will be attached automatically.

Is that iPad running under a device management ? If it was handed over by an organization (like a school, a company, a public body etc.), it often is running on a devices management program. These devices are known to block access to some parts of their OS. Same can happen when you set it up in a family setting as a "kids" iPad. Only the admin will be probably able to lift the restrictions.

Working against a system design is usually just an elaborate way to waste your time. The new feature for checklists are the checklists - the old checkboxes should only be used inside of a text flow, to allow check-able boxes, not as lists any longer. The checklists have some nice additional features - one example: If you hover with the mouse over an entry, 4 dots appear in front of it. This is a handle, you can grab it and draw the full line to a new position, without a need to select the text first. Ir makes sorting of lists much faster. And no, checklists are no bug. They are designed to be this feature, it works as it is designed, and if you don't like it, you don't like it. But not everything you don't like is a bug. If they really need to auto convert everything is another question, but checklists are carefully implemented, and they are most likely there to stay. I would not waste energy on trying to work around.

@AnneMKE If you "just downloaded" the new version, you shouldn't be surprised it is not yet racing ahead. While you are busy to keep it busy, it is busy without you keeping it busy. Why ? Because it needs to download and organize all your stuff from the server first. @jdmarch you were on the right path with your post. EN tries to have the client up and running as fast as possible. This means only a fraction of the complete database is initially downloaded. It is just enough to make it work. All the rest it will first load on demand, from the server. What you experience now is practically a web client, loading your specified content when you feel you need it. Maybe your Internet connection is a little on the slow side, and voila: The client is slow. But magic happens in the background: It is keeping on downloading all of your database. This is, when you keep EN running (can be in the background), and the computer does not go dormant. If you are able to monitor your network traffic, you can see how data is imported. Once this stops, your local database has been build, and the client will be significantly faster. Last hint: Hope you don't run a turning disk as main drive any more. On this, all recent EN versions (including the ones called legacy now) are not performing well.

You are very convinced that your opinion is the only one. Technically seen you are not correct: It is not necessary that a note has a title. Opposite to file systems each note has its own unique identifier, which is not the title, and works even if the title field is left blank. In fact we have only 2 options here, and some users indeed like to start very orderly by creating a title first. Others like to hack right away on their keyboard. And where it is useful because it avoids to set the cursor to the note body first is whenever you use the blue button to add some special content. This button is only available when the cursor is placed in the notes body. This means that currently you can use it right away in a freshly created note. So there are reasons for every option. You can send your ideas to EN PM by the feedback function build into the browser.

That the iPhone 12 is not syncing with the 7.14 client would be new to me. All clients sync through the server, and the server should take care of that. There has been a few reports of 7.14 not upgrading to the v10 series. Your desktop OS is pretty fine - even if EN believes it is not, you are on the latest version of MacOS. Both EN versions run on their own database. So in general they can be installed side by side. If you have no local (unsynced) notebooks in your 7.14 client, I don't think something will go wrong if you log out of your old client, quit it (make sure it is not running in the background any longer), and then install the new version. EN runs both clients side by side on the Mac. You will just need double disk space, because an independent version of the database will be created. If you want to be sure, ask support.

Not familiar with that Android ecosystem. What used to work on iOS pre v10 stopped working when v10 released. I think it is due to using a framework; which is practically a browser without own front end. Siri can’t help, recording on the Apple Watch has stopped, the watch app disappeared. Currently I use the app JustPressRecord on all Apple devices. Works fine, makes a transcript if wanted, allows to save both audio and transcript into an EN note. I would propose to find something similar for your Android setup, and build your workflow around it. Probably the Apple Watch will be the first to show, and it is „coming soon“ for more than a year now. Maybe after getting some iOS widgets it will now be moving up the list a bit.

Maybe somebody will look into it - to send it to EN PM, use the feedback function in the clients. As a workaround: Save the template as a note in shortcuts. When using it, select the shortcut, duplicate it and apply it right away. If it is in the first 9 shortcuts, you can even use the shortcut Strg-1 … Strg-9 (on Macs cmd-1 … cmd-9) to select it without navigating with the mouse.

For me it works - first by showing applied filters, second with some probability to quickly pick another filter to narrow search down further. For users not so familiar with search language it is IMHO good to have. And even with better knowledge it shows a nice overview. Anyhow, it means 1 note less showing in the search results list - hardly a big miss. This „screen real estate“ mania reminds me of an phenomenon from art history called „horror vacui“. Who doesn’t know: Wikipedia is your friend. My opinion - let’s agree to disagree a little 😎

We are discussing searching notes based on pdf content on a mobile device while offline. This is a specific use case. You post as if there was a general problem. No, there isn’t. While online (which for mobile devices is probably the standard in most cases) everything works. Then you post some remarks about search in PDFs not being possible, need to download, use another app - I give you the doubt you may really don’t know better. Because it is wrong what you write: Open the pdf, hit the magnifying glass top right, search. You get a nice preview of all hits, tap on any and are taken to that search hit. This works on- and offline. About the initial problem I am unhappy, and I told so. But we should not confuse other users with own inability to use what works. Search inside pdf, iOS app 10.34, flight mode:

You now learned 2 things: Not everybody has the same opinion than yourself, and (oooops) is not holding back to discuss How you can drop your idea on the right desk Maybe you got insight into some more things, you seem to be capable of sorting it out, and make the best use of it. Good luck !

In the mobile sharing function (which was redesigned since the posting in September 2021) there is no way to create a new tag. And it is no web clipper - it uses the sharing functionality of the OS. The web clipper exists for desktop browsers only, and it uses the EN API, not an OS function. Using the API, it has account access and can use more functions than the mobile clipper, that only drops content into the apps inbox.

This is probably a perfect example when a forum post from 2021 is already outdated.
