Again Evernote makes you a prisoner to their service. I have an android 9 tablet. I have about 16gb in my Evernote account. I'd like to have ALL of my notes available off-line. The tablet has 12gb internal memory (about half used up by apps and other data). I have a 128 gb sd card ready to store this data. But apparently still not possible. So yet again, Evernote keeps me a prisoner by not allowing me to have a full & local backup of my data.

My apologies for using the harsh language and I am thankful for the help. It's just very frustrating to have such a successful company not provide any technical support and pawn it all off on its users. The answers seem to be "it's just the way it is now so deal with it". Imagine that answer from anyone else. 50 notes at a time. Seems like there is no reason it cannot be 500 at a time, unless the intent is making leaving very difficult. And the suggestion to add tags to thousands of notes is also not remotely practical. I'm prepaid for a year and I'll stick with legacy until it becomes risky. Evernote will not miss me, but i will miss Evernote. And I had a company with 12-16 employees all on Evernote. I was the "admin."

Both are garbage answers. I don't want a free account, I want my all my info in one Evernote account. It's BS any company expects me to remove my information one tiny bit at at time when I have almost 4,000 notes and then having to recategorize/stack all of them. That means I'd have to go thru the export process EIGHTY times. WTF? That is Bull$hit. It should be a primary feature to bulk export / import data. But then it would be easier for people to leave and they have shareholders to answer to. EVERNOTE is a NOTE app. To make NOTES east to access and use and move. This is not Evernote anymore, this is add more garbage because new versions need to happen, until it's now unusable with trapped users. What happened to Phil Libin's promise???

Ok, I'll keep it simple. 1) I want my evernote database to be encrypted on my computer. simple. YOu are suggesting a "procedure" for what used to be for me almost zero effort. Close the laptop, drive automatically encrypted. Done and secure. Someone gets to my laptop, even if they knew my Evernote password, there is NO database to be seen. 2) there is no "c:\users\<your user name>\appdata\roaming" There is NO other database on my laptop taking up 17GB (my curent and no longer synced evernote dbase). So where is my data? 3) Where is phone support? After a decade of paying $1,200 a year I have zero phone support.

I've had a personal Evernote account since Sept 2008 and a business account since 2010. My business was closed last year (thanks COVID), and I still need to hold on to (and access) that data. I want it all under one account and don't want to pay for two separate accounts. I see that I can export note by note, but that is not feasible with thousands of notes (8gb?). Is there a simpler way? Is this impossible? Suggestions please! But not the "select 50 notes at a time and export" (without the notebooks). I have hundreds of notebooks, with thousands of notes.

Frustration has brought me here like many others. I've been an Evernote user for a while (September 2008). After a certain point evernote became like every other bloatware out there. Features to make EVERYONE happy, while forgetting why many of us are here. Simple, fast, reliable, backup-able, and NOT just living in the connected / cloud world. I have always had a local copy of my evernote Dbase on my computer (behind the Windows password AND in an encrypted drive). Then I also made an actual copy of the database to a physical portable drive and backed up to a server. Yes, this is / was my security blanket. My LIFE is in evernote and I wanted to be ablet to easly access AL mydata without an internet connection. My personal "Hitchhiker's Guide and Life Wiki" Now in V10 all that is gone. Evernote please give those of us that were 100% happy with simplicity and security you promised us over a decade ago. I TRUSTED the product Phil described. Now I'm uncertain. Now I have an outdated local database, I don't know where Evernote is keeping data on my computer, I don't know how to back it up, I don't know how much of my data is available to me off-line (PC or phone?), and my only alternative is to use the Legacy(?) version until it becomes obsolete or unsecure? And the worst part, there is no human to call for help. What the hell have I been paying for all these years? So Is my Evernote database (16GB) on my laptop obsolete? It was really easy to drag and drop that folder onto a portable HDD. Did evernote create a new ENEX file on my PC somewhere and is slowly re-downloading all 16GB of data and taking up another 16GB? (doesn't seem like it). Because I can open Evernote and see all my files w/o decrypting that drive that my database is on. Is that new database encrypted? Can I download it? Because if I have to download 16GB from the cloud every time I want a current backup copy, that would be asinine. THIS is why I kept my Evernote Dbase on an encrypted drive partition AND there's not even an option to use an Evernote password on a PC???

Coming from a marketing background, I agree with your comment. For every written comment, there are dozens of unwritten, but similar supporting views. +1
