  1. @PinkElephant I am a developer myself and I understand the necessity of updates, but, they should not disrupt the user experience. I rely on Evernote as a tool where I store some critical information I may need immediate access to. Now imagine that I am e.g. on the call and need to access my notes. I'm starting Evernote and see that I was logged out and the current version is suddenly not supported anymore. I even cannot upgrade automatically, and manually downloading the new version from the website and installing it takes some time. So basically the software fails me. I am not opposed to updates, but can please make them not so obtrusive?
  2. Seriously? yesterday my client (which forecefully updates itself nearly everyday in the least appropriate time) was supported, and today it's not? I understand that updates are necessary to throw a new portion of popups and banners at me, but that's ridiculous.
  3. Not sure if this has been already reported, but this is clearly a bug that disrupts my workflow a lot. If i have a tag that has Cyrillic "б" as a second letter, like ".библиотека", when I type ".б" in input field, when I hit "б" this triggers form submission, instead of filtering and proposing the values that start with ".б" As a programmer I can suggest that event.code is used instead of event.key to specify the keys, that trigger submission (Enter and comma). And because in Cyrillic key with code Comma actually is used for the 'б' letter, submission is triggered by 'б' letter. I suspect there may be problems with other language layouts too. It's also quite strange that I can't cancel typing the tag by pressing the Esc button, but that's another thing. I hope this will be fixed ASAP because it's quite annoying
  4. Approaches may differ. Until you settle on your own system of tags that suits you well, it takes a road of trial and error. Especially for novices, that are not used to tags and know where to start from. Self-descriptive tags are the best, if you already have a working tag system, that you know good, you probably won't need descriptions... but until then it's a good idea to provide each tag with a description to remind yourself what purpose you used this tag for, and kind of summarize your experience to decide if you need it at all. Thanks. Hierarchy is a must (in fact it is a killer feature that very little of Evernote 'alternatives' have). Indeed I have a several namespaced root categories, such as *theme, =type, -action, #todo, .projects etc, that have several nested levels each. But I'm still improving it, some tags can even change names and meaning over time. For example, from @temp to #todo - #delete (temporary notes and bookmarks that should be deleted when assocciated project is finished) Each project tag itself could use a description with project details. I think that 3 notebook categories is enough: Incoming, Library and Archive (each has 'local' and 'syncronized' notebooks in it). They serve just for "high-level" filtering of everything.
  5. Don't know if this already was requested (haven't found anything with search) So, strangely, Evernote doesn't have a very useful feature that I think must be very easy to impement - ability to add individual description to each tag. While deloping elaborated tag system, it would be very handy to have some kind of description so you could remember the exact purpose of the given tag and why it was introduced. This will help much with consistent tagging (you can read tag description and decide whether you want it or not for the note).
