I have received a response to my ticket. Essentially they informed me that locking a note to make it readonly is not possible currently and it may be implemented in the future. 

In response to some of the recent posts, please bear in mind we not requesting some sort of AI DeepMind type of feature that requires 1000's of man/scientist hours - no - simple flag on a note to indicate its locked. Coming from software development background myself, it seems almost laughable that this is not implemented after so many years. Which is why I feel there is no real attempt by EN to listen to their customers. 

Hi

Thanks for response. 

Good point. I think I will open a support ticket and request this feature. I will provide feedback here on the outcome. 

Have to respectfully disagree with your second point. Reason is that this "Feature Request" section of this forum was put in place by Evernote themselves. Therefore shouldn't they obligated to be active on these forums?

Yes, but I think what is being said, albeit without clarity, is that adding a vote in the top of the thread adds support which may be picked up by Evernote. Just saying '+1' won't get any attention. I'd be be really keen to hear your thinking or use-case and why you would like this feature. On a user supported forum that gives more chance to engage.

By all means add '+1' but it may not get you any traction or add support to the case with those able to enact change.

I look forward to hearing more about why read-only notes would be useful to you.

Paying customers are not requesting features for no reason. Why should we need to explain our reasons? Clearly there's a massive demand for this feature based on the feedback here including the all the +1's. 

It seems to me like Evernote is simply ducking and diving to avoid bringing down their profits. 

I think many of us would like a straight forward answer:

Does Evernote actually care about their customers' satisfaction? 

Community (opensource) developers are able to implement simple features within a few days. 

Evernote (whom is collecting $$$) is now closing in on a decade for some requests and still nothing!

Check out Joplin, an open source alternative with ability to sync your data to your private storage/servers. It can also import your entire Evernote library - which btw was a great feature request by the community! 

Everyone is moving forwards, Evernote is moving backwards!

Absolutely outrageous!

Also no intentions of resolving.

+1 will be super!
