Why aren't we getting shortcuts for the web version? Of all the web apps I use Evernote is the only on that doesn't have keyboard shortcuts.

I put in a support ticket about this, the reply I got was that this is a known issue and a fix is coming in the next update, no indication though of when that will be.

When I click on a hyperlink inside a note I can't get the linked webpage to open, all I get is a blank screen with a "Done" button in the top right hand corner. Clicking on "Done" returns me to the note. Is anyone else experiencing this? (Using Samsung Galaxy S10)

I noticed the web version updated to 10.6.9 today. Since the update I have had issues with reminders, I create a new note and then click to add a reminder but nothing happens, if I refresh the page, or if I go to another note and then back to my new note I can then click to add a reminder and the option to add the reminder pops up as it should do. It doesn't happen all the time, I would say that out of 6 notes I have added today 4 of them would not initially let me add a reminder.

The delay is awful, and there's no way to "refresh" on the desktop apps (at least as far as I am aware - would love to be corrected).

One of the delightful features of the legacy app is how quickly it updated searches - I could have a tag filtered/searched in Evernote, and use the web clipper to tag (or email to Evernote with a tag in subject line) and it would pop up in my filtered search in a matter of seconds. The new app gives me anxiety all the time - did my content arrive properly? Was it tagged properly? Where is it? Exactly the opposite of delightful.

 

I wouldn't know about the desktop app as I use a Chromebook which is why I use the web version, certainly in the web app you can refresh your web page using the refresh button (F5 I think on windows).

You don't need the Google Triangle icon anymore to add a Google document to an Evernote note, I found this by accident, all you need to do now to add a Google document is from within the google document select file-share or get link - copy the link and then paste it into your Evernote note then press enter and the link will change to a rich link like the one shown here. To opne the Google doc just click on your link and it will open the item in your browser (assuming you're logged in to Google that is)

You'll find that there is a bit of a delay when adding or deleting tags for the search to work, if you refresh your browser after adding the tag that will sometimes help

Good to see that the web version has some new features. 

Images and PDF annotations are now possible, that is a big improvement for me, also sketching is a great addition. I have also found that Evernote Web loads much faster now, I use Google Chrome in a Chromebook  and rely on the web version all the time.

I have also found that you can now add Google Docs links once again (which I found by accident), I haven't seen anything announced about that. If you use Google Docs and want to have a link to a document in Google Drive inside an Evernote note the way to add the ink is to select the share option on your Google document which opens a share box, copy the share link and then paste it into your Evernote note, press enter and the URL will convert to a rich link with the document name showing. Clicking on this link will open your Google document.

I raised a support ticket for this happening on the web version and was told that files above 20mb now only show as attachments but there are plans to allow bigger files as pages in the pipeline.

Today my web version has changed from 6.18 to 10.0.0 but I can't see that anything has changed, no new features or bugs repaired that I can see.

I have noticed this too. Exactly how you describe it, I found that refreshing the web page failed to recify the issue and as you say it can only be solved by logging out and back in again. This started with the last update v6.18 which appears to have broken a lot of things including remembering sort order of notes. 

For those of us that use Chromebook this is frustrating since we don't have much choice, I do have the Android app installed on my Chromebook which I tend to use more than the web app but that is very buggy. 

I see today version 6.18 has been released. I thought we were doing well until I notice that the ability to save the sorting of notes alphabetically which was added in version 6.17 is now broke. Yes you select to sort alphabetically but as soon as you close the browser and reopen it the sort order is gone. This is the problem with Evernote and has been for sometime, one thing gets fixed and it breakes something else.

I don't see what else is new in 6.18, the only thing I can find that is different is the broken sort order.

Everytime i open my notes after a reboot , the notes sort by reverse order and by date updated.

I want them to sort by title and A-Z (not reversed).

I can't find where to change this setting as a default so it will always happen.

Appreciate the help.

The new version 6.17 seems to have fixed this. If you sort your notes A-Z and then close the browser, when you reopen the browser you should find that the sort order is still the same as you set it to ie: A-Z.

Good catches, folks. I think Find and Replace has been around for a couple of versions. @ianfm, would you mind replying to this thread WRT the remembered sort order--a number of people have been waiting for that:

 

Got it, yes I have replied to that thread

Also it looks as though when you set a sort order for notes and close the web interface and reopen it, the sort order is remembered from the last setting used , before this release it always defaulted to sorting by recently updated. 

There is a new option to move a note by selecting an icon next to the notebook name at the top of a note, that's useful!

Hello

I use a Chromebook so only have the Web version and Android app at my disposal. When using the Android app I have to use the mouse/touchpad to navigate around due to the lack of keyboard shortcuts. I have a problem in that to annotate an image on android you have to long tap your finger on the screen to bring up the options. You can't do this with the mouse so does anyone know how to invoke the annotate option using a mouse/touchpad or keyboard?

I do have a touchscreen Chromebook but when in my office it is plugged into a large monitor which does not have a touchscreen, the option I have is to only annotate when using the Chromebook screen rather than an external one, but having the keyboard option would be useful. Unfortunately there is no annotation option on the Web version.

1. Good news: it looks like Evernote has fixed this. I had first reported this to them via another channel about two months ago. Three cheers, Evernote, for fixing it! Now if we can get a less cludgy way of moving the note to a new notebook (like the way it was before) that would be good.

It depends where you are when you move the note. If you have "All Notes" selected then when you select another notebook to move the note to then that note stays in focus. However if you are in a specific notebook then when you move a note to another notebook yes it goes away and the focus switches to the next note in the notebook you are in. 

I agree that this wants fixing, or the ability to open the note in a separate window which you can do in the windows evernote app, then you can keep the note in focus.

I agree about the cumbersome way to move a note between notebooks, not only is it three steps but there is no way of quickly selecting a notebook from the picker, no "recently used" at the top of the list, or search facility. You have to scroll down until you find the notebook you want. This is a step back from the old web version which did have a drop down picker when you clicked on the notebook icon at the top of the note. Same with tags too, which, it would make more sense if the tag selector was at the top of the note as in the windows app and not hidden away at the bottom on the web version.
