OMG, I never saw the replies you guys left!!! I was just about to post a new question (the same one). LOL. @HeBoIz Do I need to install the Evernote App in Windows first? I always just use the web version. But happy to install - JUST for the ability to backup. Let me know. Thanks. cloudHQ is OK. The free version seems OK. But... I'll try the first method first. All I do is make text notes - but would be horrified if one day everything dissapeared.

I only use Evernote on the web. How do I export my data? Just want to have a backup of notes. I searched and only found this: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005557-How-to-export-content-from-Evernote This does not give the answer I need. ALSO... I am privileged to get a once in a life offer of 40% off for signing up for Evernote Premium. It says "THIS OFFER WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE TO YOU JUST ONCE!!!" (Or something like that, not the exact words used.) As good as it was... I decided to decline the offer. Problem: it keeps popping up. Once in a lifetime? I love using Evernote - just wanted to make that clear. 🙂 I just use it to make random text notes that I need to come back to. The free version is more than fine for me. I get it: Evernote needs to make money. There's nothing wrong with cross promoting while free users use. It's just the lie of once in a lifetime, never to be repeated that bugs me. Am I going mad? 🤔

Thanks for all the replies guys. For the search term I was searching for... now seems to be working. Honest, I'm not going mad. I had the problem. It was definitely there!! I just made a test. I definitely get the problem. Using on Windows + Android. Windows (on browser) is where I use 90% of the time. I made 2 notes with the word pancake in. See screen shots below. (I think I removed all of my data from pics!) Something else: I made a note 24 hours on another phone. I can't find the note. I definitely 1000% made the note. It's not the first time I get this problem. Seems like I'm the only one with this problem? 😕 EDIT: Just tested again. Now it's working. I think I'm going mad. 😕 I didn't make those screen shots up above!

I make loads of random notes that I want to come back to later. I search for something. It doesn't appear. I've now stress tested. Search only searches in titles and not content. Is this true?? Seems mad. Definitely true for me. What's the point??? I have xyz mentioned in 5 notes. Only one has xyz in the title. When I search, only the note with xyz in the title gets found. This is really poor. I love using Evernote. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I can't keep on using. Hoping someone will point out where i am going wrong 🙂 Thanks.

Thanks for the replies guys. Web version says it's 6.11.0. I only ever make text notes 99.99% of the time. Not sure about why it should take time to index... Surely it all gets stored in a database and should be searchable immediately? In fact... I've made text notes... and I've come back a few days later and have searched - but just can't find them. 😕 I wasn't sure if I was going mad or anything. I rely on Evernote to just be able to make meaningless notes (that have meaning for me!) and be able to come and search up later. I'll see how it goes with the current version and will switch back if troubles persist. Though switching versions surely does nothing for the backend?

I make a new note. I search for something I know is contained in this new note. It doesn't show up in search results. 😕 Try again the next day - same problem. And the next. It seems to show up after a few days. I only use web 98% of the time and 2% of the time I use on my mobile. Am I missing something? Thanks.
