The global search has a bug. It does not always automatically open to the location of the searched for term. Actually, it sometimes doesn't highlight the searched for word/phrase at all. These are likely two separate bugs. You can try this by trying to searching for a couple common word, for me searching for the words "people" and "the" demonstrates the bug. It seems to be best seen if you scroll to some note at the bottom of the list of notes in the "Search results." Sometimes selecting a note from the "Search results" will show nothing will be highlighted. But if I press Cmd+F, the search term will correctly be highlighted in yellow.

For me the ability to search all of my notes for a specific word/phrase is a critical function. I have found that that often times, Evernote does this properly. It finds the searched for word/phrase, highlights it in yellow, and opens the corresponding note directly to the location of the found and highlighted term. The problem is that often times with long notes it does not open to this location. I then have to scroll the note to find the highlighted word/phrase. If the word/phrase occurs more than once in a specific note, finding the next highlighted word/phrase requires more scrolling and searching for a yellow highlight, which isn't too easy to find if the note already has yellow highlighted content. Evernote does have a search within the a note function that works really well. I found that once the global "Search Notes..." function identifies a specific note that is long and has multiple occurrences of the searched for word/phrase, I can than open that note, than press Command-F, and the number of found instances will appear in an extremely useful search box. Arrows also appear allowing me to easily advance or return to each occurrences. I suggest that Evernote consider changing the global search function to open each note to automatically display this extremely useful search box. This saves the user from having to press Command-F in every note that the global search finds, and adds the functionality of displaying how many instances were found in the note, and the advance or return arrows. Thanks for your consideration for fixing a bug and improving the search functionality.

I also strongly suggest adding back the right-click contextual menu options in the Mac version of Evernote. In the older versions of Evernote, I frequently used dictionary "Look Up" of highlighted words (for words in an other languages). I also frequently used the Speech to text option, and various "Services" under this menu. For now my work around is to copy the Evernote into Apple's TexEdit, just so I can use the missing right-click contextual menu options. Needless to say this is a hassle. BTW, the newest I am really pleased with the performance of 10.61.4. Please keep up the great work of improving this critical App！

Unfortunately, this bug is still not fixed with the most recent 10.53.1 update. Great idea on creating extra blank notes in advance.

Sounds good, thanks for the quick response.

There is a new bug when starting a new note in iPhone iOS (Evernote version 10.53) and iPad OS (Evernote version 10.53). I did not have this problem prior to upgrading to 10.53. It now takes an extremely long time to start a new note. Below is how long it takes to open a new note so that I can begin to editing it. I've included two trial times for each OS and screenshots of the waiting period. BTW, my Evernote database has 16,400 notes. iPhone 13: 2 mins 21 secs; 2 mins 25 secs iPad Pro: 2 mins 59 secs; 2 mins 21 sec Evernote for the Mac version 10.60.4 starts a new note in 4-5 secs, so nothing quick but it is still functional and about the same speed as pre-10.60.4. Evernote Web is sometimes starts a new note quicker than when using the Mac version, but speeds are inconsistent. Anyone else having this problem? Is a fix forthcoming? Thanks.

Thank you for following up. Is the team able to reproduce this energy drain problem? Let me know if I provide any helpful log information.

My reported battery drain example occurred under normal use conditions. I had already been using EN v10 for quite a while, as I update my App as soon as a new version is released. I was definitely not doing an initial downsync, nor was I downloading offline notebooks. I was not using any share extensions, and was just typing, occasionally used the Camera EN function to insert photos/scans into a note, or searching (my EN database has 11K+ notes). I was typing a mixture of English and Chinese (using Gboard for Chinese input). Other than that, nothing special. Thanks for your investigating the battery drain issue.

I am running EN 10.0.4 on an iPhone 11 iOS 14.0.1, and yesterday used EN continuously for 2 hours (for the 1st hour Battery showed a 99% EN usage, and for the 2nd hour a 83% EN usage). I started with a battery of level at 100% and after 2 hours the battery level dropped to about 45%, and the iPhone felt unusually warm. This confirmed my prior subjective experiences with shorter uses of EN v10. It seems that EN v10 has a real probable with power management that pre-v10 EN did not have. Are other people having similar battery drain problems with EN version 10? Is there a fix being worked on?
