I totally agree with the general tenor of the first post. what the company Evernote delivers is a shame and nothing else. Since years the software became more and more outdated. The redesign took at least 2 years when I remember correctly. And what you finally published is indiscussable in technical terms (so many serious! bugs) as well as product terms (I didn't find a single useful feature except different highlight colors, instead you removed or destroyed a couple of features people where used to, e.g. it is not possible anymore to center images - what is just ridiculous). I have to say I am strongly disappointed. I was something like a fan of Evernote. I am using it since 2007, a few weaks after release. I am premium user since at least 5 years). If there wasn't this strong lock in effect (~10k notes), I would delete all of your software immidiately and use the product of one of your competitors instead. The only thing I can do is to strongly advice everyone who is not a user yet to try something else. And to promise that there will one day be a powerful migration assistant that allows me to transfer my 10k notes to another note taking app... Seriously. I really hope one of your investors will one day have a look at what the users say about Evernote and will find that post. If so, my advice is: Fire your product team. Or completely rethink the processes. What you deliver is far below standard.

I know that we have this now and I appreciate it. My point was: How long did it take from Feature Request to implementation? 6 years? 7 years? So if Evernote tells now that the removed tag list is on the development roadmap it helps me personally nothing.

Same thing here. This could be the final reason for me to sh*t on Evernote. I am user since 2008. I have grown structures that have been organized with tags. It's now impossible to find what I am looking for. I am extremely pissed. Really. I understand that you somehow messed up your dev team so that it takes 2 years to redesign your apps to allow basic features. As I said, I can understand that. What I cannot understand is why you take away features, that do not harm anyone, just because someone thought it would be nicer this way. The next thing is: You already demonstrated that giving you feedback, even begging for features is completely useless as you most likely don't care (different highlight colors, lol. Was asked for since 7 years. So maybe in 10 years we get back the tag list feature. Great).

People keep telling this since 2013. They haven't reacted for 6 years. They just don't care, sorry.

I agree that a style feature similar to what editors like Word offer would quite a lot influence the using experience and should therefore be thought through really carefully. But highlighting colors...it's basically the same as different font colors. The same in terms of UX, implementation and even how the UI would have to look like. Evernote is a big question mark for me. I understand that prioritizing is key in development and I understand that they can't implement all community requested features. I also understand that some features are much more complicated to implement from a technical perspective as it seems from outside. I understand that some features might destroy the carefully designed user experience behind the software. But adding different highlighting colors? Given the fact that it's one of the most requested features by the community? As I said, there is just no excuse in my opinion.

Since the dark mode update for MacOs, I have a similar bug where the highlighting formatting does not stop as initially formatted after closing and reopening a note. It's pretty similar to the line break bug (that I also experience). For me these things by the way only occure in notes with a code block (as I use them as Headings this is practically in all of my notes).

Calm down everyone. They're working on it and that's what counts. Thanks @ Evernote for finally starting to implement this important feature.

Quick fix is to add a space in an empty line. Besides that, I contacted support a couple of weeks ago already, they told me they were aware of the bug but didn't give an indication when or if it will be fixed.

So you guys are not interested in Bug reports? !

I have the same issue. It's most likely not Mac specific, I am using Evernote on iOS and Windows as well and it occurs there as well. I have created a topic in the bug forum, but haven't received a reply. My Quickfix is to add a space in the empty line. It won't get lost then anymore but it's not very comfortable.

I'd like to add a new finding: When I add a space (or any other character) in the newly added line, the line keeps persistent and doesn't disappear after leaving the note.

Since a couple of weeks, some of my Notes lose line breaks. Not in the entire note, only at specific locations within the note. Might be an issue in combination with centered italic format. I have notes where it is reproducable. So I add the line break where I want it to have, i leave the note, i open it back again and the line break is gone. It is not connected to a certain platform. I use Evernote on Windows, MacOS and iOS. The issue comes everywhere. So I guess the easiest is when I send one of the affected notes to a developer? Regards.

Hello there, I'd like to share my Heading types for longer notes. I have experimented quite a lot (among others with pictures, what didn't work out well). The requirement of the heading is for me to a) seperate long notes into sections and and b ) have an appealing look. What I came up with is this. It's simply Times New Roman with Font-Size 24 and color #2A323D (the Evernote-grey). Below a horizontal line which works quite well as a seperator. As I said, I was testing around a lot and this was at the end of the day the best choice out of convenience and looks. I was wondering what you are using and I am looking for some inspiration! Regards Stephan

Hi, I am using Evernote on different devices: Windows 10 Desktop, Mac OS, iOS (iPhone and iPad). All updated on the latest versions. The Windows Version has now caused a severe error for the second time. I experienced the same one week ago and I reinstalled Evernote after it and hoped it wouldn't happen again, but it did right now. It's not so easy to explain, I hope you can follow: I am working on Evernote Windows Desktop on different notes (jump from one note to another, make some changes, jump back to the old one and so on). At one Point, the Content of Note A is entirely replaced by the Content of Note B. The title is still correct but the note content is replaced. It is critical to terminate the app imidiately now, if you don't want that other notes will be affected in the same way. If I sync to other devices now, the note Content stays as it was displayed in the Windows app. In other word, the old Content of Note A is completely lost. There is no way to use "Step backwards" or something, the content of the replaced note is lost forever. Just to make this clear: this is propably the most severe kind of error your app could have. I am using Evernote since 10 years and I have >3.000 notes. Many notes, especially the old ones, have a high personal value for me. My trust in Evernote has been sensitively damaged now. I have to add, that I am really disappointed by you guys. Bugs can happen. Sure. But not this kind of bug. Which value has Evernote if I have to fear that some stupid bug destroys my 10 years old memories? Do you know that bug? Is there a chance that you fix it one day?

Hell yeah. I want this feature so bad...
