Gets worse. I am running EN 10.76 on MacOS Big Sur. Today I opened Evernote to find that all my encrypted notes have been unencrypted and are displaying in the clear. To add insult to injury, all the formatting has disappeared as well - no bold, no indentation, no highlights. Pages of material carefully formatted and built up over years and all the formatting wiped at a glance. So much for automatic backup of valuable data.
Since the editing problem first appeared, I have never attempted to edit an encrypted note, nor have I ever decrypted an encrypted note. Like others on here, I have been waiting patiently since last October for a proper working system to appear. I am a "Plus" user rather than a Premium user, so still paying.
I ask myself, why am I paying for all this hassle??
If anyone has found a good alternative notes app and a means of exporting the data, please post here. I am all ears!
