Evernote - Notes Organizer 4+

Edit mode

Excellent app to take quick note. You can continue to edit and view your notes when back in office with a browser. Seamless!
However, 8 out of 10 times I’m in read mode only, and zooming in for easier reading. And many times, by accident, it enter to edit mode, when I’m trying to scroll around. Text return to its original size. At times when I want to enter edit mode, it just give me select/copy mode by long pressing!
Inconvenient behavior. What I wish for is an EDiT button on the corner so I can click when I need to edit. Moreover, keep the current text size while entering edit mode! IMO less hassle.

Sync problems

Sync has become quit problematic lately. On iPhone, when I finish typing and press the green tick, the tick is not gone and Evernote “replays” my editing steps for tens of seconds. E.g. If I type “How are you?” then Evernote first shows “How”, stop for one or two seconds, then shows “How are”, stops for a few seconds, and finally shows “How are you?”. If I have deleted some characters or added something in the middle, Evernote replays these too. If I quit the app at this point, I would lose my editing. How terrible it is! Reinstalling the app gets rid of the problem for one or two days, and then it comes back. In other occasions, when I type some Chinese characters and then switch to input some English on the same line, Evernote quits the editing screen and goes back to the note list. The editing is then gone. I have to kill the app to get past that. After being a premium user for years, I’m now seriously considering to switch to other alternatives for notetaking.

It’s time to move on

Additional frustration from Evernote, it’s really time to move on!

When Evernote released a buz version and this should easier for users collaboration but this is totally wrong! I am using personal version sharing with another personal user, however, it keeps crashing and creating “extra” notes because of conflict is found! Come on! They use to show “someone is editing” the note and it rarely create “extra notes” due to conflict, however, it happens frequently in last few months!

Plus, there should be problem in their sync as the few hours ago update doesn’t show in preview! Or even doesn’t appear in the shared note as well!

My bottom comment about that bug has been fixed, however, if anyone is asking, is it worth to use to use Evernote, I would say it’s no longer a nice app to subscribe! Don’t waste your money!

===============
As an aged user of evernote, I like this app a lot... until recently, the revamp of UI refresh my eyes, it surprised me a lot but I have terrible experience tonight when I keep updating a note. Firstly, auto save doesn’t work; 2nd, my manual save doesn’t work too; 3rd, update doesn’t show at the summary page even tho it’s inside the note; 4th is the most terrible issue, when I click a note, content appears over 5 seconds after the click! Excuse me, am I using sth decades ago? I think the revamp is very nice but in case it’s too buggy or performance is totally deteriorated, please don’t do it!
