Yes! For me, this is the most exciting element of the most recent update. I've been duplicating notes merrily ever since updating.

gazumped: Yes, I know I sound like I'm whining, but literally the last 3 things I raised with support, they said "oh we know about that one, and we're going to get to it eventually." They were very honest in acknowledging to me that they care about the user experience, but that it's second to the "huge" development project they're working on. So I'm content to stick with Evernote, and I appreciate their honesty. But this "copy of note X" behavior is something that changed somewhere along the line. The focus used to go to the new note; now it stays with the old note. Support said basically that just because they don't do anything about it, I shouldn't assume tghey don't care about the users' experience. The fact they have to say that suggests they *don't* care much about the users' experience. Anyway, I should stop whining, because as I said, I don't see a better program for my needs. And I appreciate support's honesty in keeping my expectations low. And I'm hoping EN will develop into something even more wonderful. But right now, I find that I fairly often regret not having more options over the behavior of the program.

Dear Pink Elephant: If you can't tell the difference between the two notes, then you have problems reading the titles of the notes. "Note 1" and "Copy of Note 1" are hardly the same thing. If I do as you suggest, "Note 1" will be edited and become the new note. "Copy of Note 1" will retain the original information. But actually, I want "Note 1" to have the original information and then rename "Copy of Note 1" to "Note 2," where I will put the new information. It's not rocket science. But Evernote seems uninterested in a user's interaction with their program. They are so focused on their programming agenda that the user's experience takes a distant second place. I resent it. And I resent not being able to find a better program.

I frequently use "duplicate" to create a sort of template for a new note. I thought it was obvious that if I'm creating a duplicate, it's because I want to edit the duplicate. So I don't understand why EN chooses to keep the focus on the original note and force the user to hunt down "Copy of ..." in order to continue working. Wouldn't it be more natural to shift the focus to the new note when choosing the "duplicate" option? At least, that's what I would like.

There is a discrepancy in the work process of moving a note between web/Windows and Android. In Android, the list of notebooks (to which the note can be moved) is listed within stacks. In the windows app and on the web, it's just an alphabetical list of all notebooks. This bump interrupts my seamless use of the two interfaces. It would be better to list notes within stacks (like Android does) in all platforms. Thanks. Malcolm

There are so many things to love about Evernote. But for the visually oriented among us, the lack of control over color and font makes it difficult to organize things visually. Why can't we modify the style (font and color) of note titles? Why can't we give labels individual colors? Could we have control over the colors of the panels? Can each note have its own background color? Can we use system fonts instead of just the minuscule options allowed? When everything looks the same, everything disappears for me. The more I put into Evernote, the less I see because it all looks the same. Can't the user have some control over colors, please??
