  1. To answer your second question first, I'd guess whomever created the IFTTT recipe used a method that depended somehow on a trigger to append rather than create new which Evernote no longer maybe recognises. It's a problem with integrations: sooner or later one side or the other changes the rules, and until everyone catches up, there are issues. Meantime a new recipe may be required. Mind you, if you've been appending to that note for a while (and depending on the content and your account level), you may have exceeded the note size so that appending is no longer an option... Note size limits (per) What are the system limits of Evernote? 25 MB (Basic) 50 MB (Plus*) 200 MB (Premium and Business) Note: 64-bit systems are recommended for uploading large attachments in Windows. IMHO it's always better to use lots of small notes than one big one anyway - created dates will give you a timeline, and a standard tag or title will make them easy to find, especially with a saved search. Just sayin' If you are a subscriber you can get more direct help - the Support team is available on https://help.evernote.com/hc/requests/new, or https://twitter.com/evernotehelps if that link won't work for you.
  2. Nope, sorry - there has been at least one version update since then, but the release notes didn't feature this issue, and I've not (AFAIK) seen anyone saying that it has been magically fixed. I have seen other threads still complaining about related issues. Not sure what other work-arounds there could be - if Evernote indents don't work for you, then you kinda have to stop using indents or find a different option...
  3. Hi. I have a ScanSnap and it's the best device I ever bought. That said, you mainly need a sheet-fed scanner to zip through all the paper - a flatbed scanner will see you old, aching and very crabby by the time you have a lot of paper scanned. Lots of manual operations! Sheet feeds can zip through at 30+ per minute and all you have to do is stack the hopper. And tag/ title the scans. I tend to cheat on batch jobs like adding dates. I'd set up a note containing all the options of titles I intend to apply and just copy/ paste across. For tags I'd create a 'special' range - R-2018/01, R-2018/02 etc, so I can just type 'R' in the tags field to see the range, and choose from the drop-down. For receipts it's enough to group them into months rather than having the exact date, though you can add this as necessary later if required.
  4. Adding icons to Freeplane is no biggy - this is a section of a demo map that I altered with a quick update. The red arrows indicate a hyperlink, the (oversize) Evernote icon is a manually bodged version added via Freeplane > Tools > Open User Directory Go to folder: Icons Add in new icon (as .PNG) Restart Freeplane Freeplane > Edit > Icons to use... - the blue highlight is my selection of that node to add the icon. An internet image search for "evernote logo" generated lots of options...
  5. Hi. Try Freeplane. AFAIK any mind map app that can save URLs can save en Evernote note link, so embedding note data into a map is something I have been doing for a while. I'm a lapsed Mind Manager user too. I like the concept but there are tons of corporate bells and whistles I do not need, and the cost is ridiculous for the value I get out of it.
  6. Hmmn. Does the new version only work in Google Chrome? After a couple of false starts I got through to the 'switch to the new Evernote web', but https://www.evernote.com/client/web#?an=true& gets me here. I'm logged in to my account, but the options are to download Evernote or to use Chrome.. I use Firefox...?
  7. I don't think anyone has posted anything like that. Some people seem wedded to hierarchical filing, others are willing to adapt to tags. Evernote -by their own choice so far- only does tags. (Except - look at what 'Spaces' can do - that might be more your speed.) If tags don't work for you, it's possible you're using the wrong application. If anything the main argument here is like saying you love Pizza, but you just wish they'd stop putting cheese and tomato on it because you hate the taste. Best suggestion might be - stop buying pizza...
  8. Hi. I visited the site and watched the videos. I'm sure I'm over-simplifying it, but 'conceptualizing' and 'visualising' seems to boil down to an alternate UX for Evernote, with more colors. I was also thrown a little by the fact that 'Categories' seems to be your name for Evernote's Tags (but with added colors) Do you have any examples of use cases to further illustrate the power of your app? Your website is also a little shy on who and where the developers are, and whether we will be able to access the service in 10 years time. If we come to rely on the new layouts and colors - what happens to all the styling work if the app is no longer accessible for any reason?
  9. Hi. With a mobile device I'd suggest you sync the notes you have, uninstall the app and restart the device to clear memory, and then reinstall.
  10. Hi. There've been issues with the Chrome Clipper lately - this thread has the latest posts...
  11. Doh! I completely forgot to say that there's an option in the mobile apps to automatically record the location of the note still - Atlas was just a way to show note locations on a map.
  12. Hi. What do you mean by 'track locations'? Do you need to find all notes in a particular geographical area, see all notes by area on a map, or find notes that have a theme like waterfalls / trees etc. Atlas has been gone for 2+ years so I don't see that returning. Google Maps does allow you to link pictures and locations together. Evernote would allow you to add tags to a small image so you could link waterfalls etc together. I don't know of any photographer specific apps, but its likely that others will have wanted to record scouting locations...
  13. Hi. Can you give us a full explanation of when and how you found that your trash items had disappeared? Had you cleared the trash on a desktop or via the web?
  14. Its always possible, but Evernote very rarely comment on whether or when new features might be released.
  15. We're busily hijacking @Myles McGinley's thread here - if there's more non-Tangle related stuff I suggest we take it elsewhere! I set up a new thread here: I'll add some more comment there... (Sorry Myles... )
  16. That's a little unfair IMHO - the search feature always allows you to highlight items of interest. I tend to throw everything into Evernote and 'connect' it later. If I buy something online I'll make a note. Then add the acknowledgement email. And the 'we're about to deliver' email (with a reminder for the date). Plus the delivery note, user guide and -maybe- pictures of the unboxing. If I need to see the whole story, a search on the order number will connect all the dots. Or maybe I'm researching a holiday... tour guides, travel plans, checklists all go into Evernote. This time I'd cheat and add a tag <holiday2018> to find all the bits. But searching for each country name will remind me that I have a friend in Spain, so I can tag his address in case we get a chance to visit... Or I might have saved endless clips about photography and decide that I want to do some landscapes / portraits / night shots while away. I can set up some saved searches in favorites to bring up the relevant clips. New 'views' of existing data are never bad - the clump of information around photography might suggest I'm spending too much time there; or analyzing emails might show me my most important customer isn't who I thought. I actually don't know what connections might show up, which for me is the interesting bit.
  17. Hi. If you're clipping the whole web page, then the resulting note will show the whole page. You're right there's (currently) no way to jump to the note highlighting a location within that page. If you copy or clip that section to another note however, you can get the URL to point to that instead.
  18. I'm always a sucker for alternative views of my data - I signed up; let's see what you've got...
  19. That may be the case, but 1) a new feature called Spaces is (allegedly) about to launch, which may solve the issue, and 2) at 220M users and counting, I think Evernote was learning to cope without a folder structure, at least until now...
  20. See my post in January 2016. If the fixes in this thread don't help, contact Support.
  21. Hi. Not sure whether it applies in iOS, but Android users have a widget that can be set up to show notes from a variety of sources - recently changed, a specific notebook etc etc. Can I ask why you prefer a one notebook view? Is it for efficiency, security or quickly finding recent notes? (See previous sentence!) I ask because when you create a new note it should be possible to assign it to a specific notebook...
  22. Pleased to see that you're not an AI yourself anyway! We're (mainly) all Evernote users with various day jobs so I'm not sure this audience qualifies as experts - other than the personal research put in toward finding our own productivity solutions. IMHO most apps claiming "AI" involvement are just using advanced marketing speak (also known as 'handwavium') for what amounts to a new paint job. In any event I'd be highly suspicious of any app that genuinely used AI to make decisions for me - as would many others, judging by the generally bad reaction to Evernote suggesting that they were about to "help" users by analysing our databases. I have a deep aversion to any black box operation that processes by rules I don't totally understand and control. The apps I have tried that claim to learn my preferences usually wind up beaten (literally) into submission when they make continually bad choices. While there are thousands of productivity apps out there, I still haven't found one that can handle everything I need, AI or no. I'm currently back at three or four complementary standard apps for the whole process - including Evernote, Ticktick, Zapier and Airtable. Plus other apps like Freeplane (mind mapping) for planning and discussions. If anyone has any AI related suggestions, I'd be interested...
  23. Always your right and your choice to vote with your feet - it might be worth waiting around for a little while though.. looks like some interesting changes to Evernote Web are on the way through, and as long as Evernote is still a browser option in any OS, and effective web solution might be better than nothing.
  24. The word currently, is "No", but some fairly major looking new features are expected soon...
  25. Evernote (AFAIK) have never 'refused' to entertain any feature request. They proceed at their own pace, and some developments take much longer than others because they're not just adding a final detail to an overall picture - implementing one small additional step means a whole section of code has to be rewritten and upgraded to work across all supported operating systems, then rolled out to 220M users who will be a little upset (see other threads here) if even the slightest detail goes wrong. Individual developers have suggested that the web client is being upgraded with the new Spaces feature, which seems to answer several frequent requests - 'pinnable' notes, shareable notebooks stacks, and variable notebook collections. When all those things get rolled out, it's possible that any argument here will become moot - Evernote will have dealt with this feature request along with several others. But developing something new* takes time. *And I know sub-folders aren't a new concept, but they're new to Evernote...
