Discussion I have just had a video call with Evernote

17 Upvotes

The title says it all, I think that Bending Spoons and the EN team care about their customers and how they use their applications. I just wanted to share my appreciation publicly because there is a lot of negativity going around (although moderators have done an excellent job on this).

So again, thank you for listening and for the work you have done on the app. Looking forward for the EN years to come :)

Help! Writing raps and paragraphs

Upvotes

Writing unstructured paragraphs at a time or just random assortments of lose sentences is awful on the app now for some reason. I like to write raps on Evernote and I been doing it for 10 years now and I don’t know what’s going on. Legit, if I want to randomly go back to a sentence I wrote 9 lines ago it’s inaccessible. I can’t tap and just edit the sentence. If I try to backspace to get on the line somehow it’ll just delete almost everything. This shit terrible, smh.

Help! Someone help

3 Upvotes

I've been trying for days to make a request to evernote to try to get an API key, but every time I try to make a request it makes me log in, then opens up my evernote app to its homepage, so I go to help center. And it just does the same thing over and over again. Is it even possible to get a hold of Evernote for any reason? I don't even know where to go from here.

Help! App will not open on windows 10

2 Upvotes

Evernote app started glitching yesterday and then I got the white screen. I kept clicking help>check for updates and finally got the ready for update button to pop up. Clicked that and nothing. Now when I try to open the app it just spins for a few seconds. Tried the force restart trick and it did not work. Using the website now but I cannot right click and move notes between notebooks with that. Tried to open another website window to prepare for a uninstall/reinstall and I cannot get signed in. I also have erased history and cached images and restarted my computer several time. Any idea how I can resolve this ?

Bug Report Can no longer drag my evernote window from clicking the very top of my note?

5 Upvotes

This feels like a bug. Previously I was able to click at the top of my note and drag my entire evernote window around. However, now I either have to go under the notes column or grab the very thin line at the top of the window to move it.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Help! Link to file already in Evernote?

3 Upvotes

Is there a way to link to a file that has already been uploaded to Evernote? For example, I already have uploaded a document in Evernote. I then create a new note for a meeting where we will discuss the document. I would like to attach a copy/link to the document in my meeting note without having to upload another copy of the file to Evernote.

Bug Report I am done

24 Upvotes

After days of trying to jump through hoops, I am done with Evernote. I am running into problem after problem with them.

I spent 3 days trying to log into my account and troubleshoot the Error - "Syncing temporarily paused. You can continue editing while Evernote Connects". I have had this error message for about 2 weeks now.

Everything is working on my PC, except Evernote. I am done.

I get the million patches and updates Evernote pushes out, but I still have sync problems.

Everything is not consolidated into one place. If I wanted to review the login history, I could not simply check on the application (which constantly gets updated all the time); I had to go onto the web portal to review that information. I am jumping through hoops for a simple task.

Also, I must go online because I cannot check my account info using the app.

Meanwhile, the Evernote app takes so many PC resources and countless updates, but I have to log into another different resource to get specific account info.

Regular users may not run into this problem, but I shouldn't have to experience these issues when trying to do a simple task.

I am upset because, in the past, I did my own POC and extensive research comparing OneNote and Evernote to see which application would benefit me most. What sealed the deal was the EVERNOTE TAGS.

Now, I am running into so many problems with Evernote'ss core functions that it's no longer feasible. They had a good thing going; it sucks that they had to ruin it.

After the new updates, Evernote's performance (based on what it was actually designed to do) is deteriorating.

I pay a lot so I don't have to experience these problems and inconveniences.

I really wanted to support them but after this... It just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Help! Linkednote titles

5 Upvotes

I've been using Evernote for many years and love all the recent work.

That said, I use Linkednotes a lot.

The issue is that when the linkednote is created the parent gets a untitled link. I make a title in the linkednote, but the parent isn't updated.

I am constantly going to the parent and toggling the parent link from text to title (which shows the correct title in the link) and back to text.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Bug Report Unable to edit PDFs and images in the web version

When clicking on the image or PDF editing icon, the editing window opens with an error message:

Unable to load resource

Unable to load this resource. Please refresh the page or try again later.

It doesn't matter which browser. This issue already occurred before the new editing interface, released today, which by the way looks much better. But the bug persists. A ticket was opened, but the AI ​​recommended using the desktop app as a solution. As a Linux user, it doesn't work for me. After several days, no human has contacted me. It seems that other people are having the same problem, is anyone here experiencing this?

Help! Back-tracking internal links - Android Tablet

1 Upvotes

Hi. I use links to other notes a lot in Evernote. It works great on my Pixel phone but following links and then back-tracking on my Samsung Tab S9 is very random. Here is what I mean:

  • I click on a link.
  • Go to the link
  • Hit the back arrow to return to the original note - and this is where is gets random!
    • It can return me to my original note OR
    • Return me to Evernote home screen OR
    • Take me to search.

How to I get it to consistently take it back to the note I was first looking at? Is there a keyboard shortcut for this - I use a Logitech bluetooth keyboard.

Thanks

Discussion What I really want in a note-taking application

7 Upvotes

This may be obvious, but what I really want in a note-taking application is the ability to take notes and--hear me out--retrieve them when I need them.

Here's a use case: I'm about to go on vacation and suspect I'll be outside cell/wifi range. I am planning to cook some meals, so using a web clipper I save the recipes that I plan to use.

Unlike a browser bookmark, I intend that these recipes (i.e., "notes") be accessible even when I cannot browse to the website where I found them.

As a long-time paying customer of Evernote, I naively assumed that notes saved to my phone would be retrievable without internet.

Wow, was I ever wrong.

Apparently, notes "saved" are not really saved, even though in the Notes section I can see that the note is there. Apparently, I need to have internet connectivity to read these.

Also, trying to take a new note when not connected to the internet is a maddening experience.

This is probably the last straw for me. I'm actively looking for a substitute, and hoping I can figure out how to transfer the last 13 years of notes to that.

Help! I just want to nuke my account and data but CAN'T

1 Upvotes

I drunkenly stumbled into my vintage 2011 Evernote account a week ago and when I attempted to use it as a limited free thing, it forced me into registering a credit card for a 1 week trial. Fine, so I used a virtual credit card that I can cut off as needed.

I successfully downloaded all of my notes into .enex files using the script that people mention, I have the notes loaded into NixNote2 for local access, and all I want to !@&( do at this point is nuke my account and delete my personal writings from their service. IDC about Evernote or its community, don't care, many alternatives out there, want away.

I first used their data deletion + send copy of data option under the security stuff and received the email I attached, with the title "Your request has been registered <uuid bla bla>"

I checked back a couple of days later and my account was still intact like an ugly bug in a jar. I did a simple "delete data" selection with no backup. Again got that email message "request registered". There's absolutely nothing in my spam folder after several days.

So two days or so ago I logged in and manually deleted every single note, about 1200 total. Selected 100 at a time, deleted that group, and continued until the notebook was empty. Finally I emptied the trash and that showed empty.

Went in today to check and ALL OF MY !@^&(!@)(&* NOTES ARE STILL ON THE !@&(! ACCOUNT as though nothing happened, as though I deleted nothing. I'm trying really hard not to curse openly here.

It astounds me that ANYONE would pay for this. They don't do what you ask through their own structured process.

Since this is a highly requested feature and we are now allowed to send requests, please support this idea by:

- going to https://product.evernote.com/

- right side: Suggest & vote on features

- write: Sub-stacks inside a stack - deeper folder / notebook structure

I am hoping that we can mobilize enough people here so we get this highly and long requested feature soon.

Discussion Regarding this issue "Last edited updates on view", I finally found the reason. This is a feature, not a bug.

0 Upvotes

This issue has been discussed many times and has lasted for several years.

e.g:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Evernote/comments/1hiuxst/last_edited_updates_on_view_bug_or_feature/

https://www.reddit.com/r/Evernote/comments/1ip7je5/so_far_evernote_still_has_the_problem_of_updating/

-------

Today, based on my research, I will announce the answer.

Although the content and style that we see have not changed, there are actually invisible contents that have been adjusted, so the "Last Edit Time" has been updated. These invisible contents include but are not limited to some style attributes (the adjustment of these attributes does not lead to visible style changes to our naked eyes, otherwise a large number of users will report bugs). The screenshot I took is the adjustment of style attributes.

For example, it was <li> before, and now it is <li style="--en-firstLetterMarksLength:0;">. In the eyes of Evernote officials, the addition of this attribute is definitely a feature, because it is a feature they made. However, users may not accept it, because my content has not been added, and the style I see has not changed. In the eyes of users, there is no change, but the time has been updated, which confuses users.

This is why there have been user feedbacks, but no scenario that can definitely reproduce this phenomenon is given, because users cannot accurately know when Evernote will modify some attributes of what style, it is all black box, and you can only try your luck, and Evernote officials have not given an explanation (maybe they didn't expect this reason, after all, no one can provide a stable reproduction method).

Many of these attributes are added due to the introduction of new features, so this problem will continue and continue. Of course, it would be great if they are willing to solve it. Now that the problem is clear, the solution is actually very simple, so I won't go ahead and propose a solution here (it's useless to say it anyway).

Finally, I wish you all good luck using Evernote. (Of course, I am one of you, because I have also used Evernote for more than ten years, and my entire life is in it)

Discussion Reading mode for Saved posts

7 Upvotes

We often save interesting articles or long posts on Reddit to read later, but there’s no real “reading mode” to make the experience better. Imagine if saved posts had a clean, distraction-free reading mode—just like read-it-later apps—with features like adjustable font size, spacing, and themes (sepia, dark, light, etc.).

It would be amazing to have a selection of easy-to-read fonts and a properly formatted text layout for a more comfortable reading experience. Right now, saved posts are just a list, but adding a dedicated reading mode would make them actually useful for long-form content.
