mdk1 69 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Evernote 8.0 is a steaming pile of garbage. I'd like to downgrade to the version that was available just prior, which is 7.18.1. Here are easy instructions. Thanks in advance to anybody that could provide this file. Please post here or PM me directly, as this thread will likely be deleted soon. How To Reinstall Older Version App For iPhone Quote Phone A Friend The person can do this by right clicking on the app on iTunes and then selecting Show in Windows Explorer or Show in Finder for Mac. There will be an .ipa format file. This file can then be used to install the older version app, just download it and drag it into your iOS device. Link to comment

mdk1 69 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 I was able to restore my iphone entirely in iTunes so I got back 7.18.1 that way, but it was too late for my iPad. I'm still looking for the ipa file if anybody has it. iTunes doesn't seem to be copying the ipa files from my iphone for me. Link to comment
hernanballesteros 21 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Pleaase... I don't have that version in my iTunes folder. I have only the 7.6.5 version of that file, because it was the last time I've synced my iPhone with my Mac. Now, I'm using this version (7.6.5) but I'd like to use the last version before these updates: 8.0, 8.1 and 8.2 (these versions are HORRIBLE!) Please, if somebody have the Evernote 7.18.1.ipa file, upload to some place and post the link. Thanks! Link to comment

Had to be careful with the backup settings, Apple flags everything to backup when you return, but other than that easy enough. FWIW. Link to comment

Would you be so kind as to provide me with the Evernote 7.18.1 ipa file so that I can downgrade (upgrade)? Link to comment

mdk1 69 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 I actually was finally able to use the proxy workaround to download 7.18.1. The video here has helped: Also, the person in that video posted a link to the file in the description. SO much better. It's astonishing how they managed to ***** Evernote in version 8. Having been forced to use it for a few days, it's so nice to be back in 7. Link to comment

You could try direct messaging @jacobberger and ask him this question. He's the one who made and posted the video. Here's the link to his post in another thread. Link to comment

If you did this on your own computer using your own iTunes, there's no way it could possibly know who "that user" is, or be connected to "that user" in any way. I have no idea what you could be referring to. The video worked for me using iTunes on my own computer. Link to comment

I, specifically, only experienced the problem of how slow Evernote behaved when scrolling. I was also able to upgrade to the "new" version and I had to reboot only once, after which the crash issues were solved. HOWEVER, I detailed my criticism of EVERYTHING that Evernote has lost. On the contrary, Evernote HAS NOT BEEN GAINED. But I am not the measure of all things and I have read the other post and in principle, 90% of the comments are NEGATIVE. And even with the new update, many users continue to complain WITH MUCH REASON. What is really disappointing, is that the only solution that seems to find the "team" of Evernote, is to tell those who have problems with each and every update is: "Re-Install". It's really POOR customer service from the Evernote team. While the services offered by Evernote are extremely useful to me (that is why I am still subscribed and I will continue to subscribe to Evernote), it is disappointing that the complaints are so deep and continue to advertise how "wonderful" this update is ... However , They do not say NEITHER a WORD about the reasons why they have removed LOTS of usable options from the application. Link to comment
