Evernote for Palm Pre (and Pixi) gets a great update today. The latest version (1.0) adds a number of features and improves on existing functionality. You can now create snapshot notes from within the application, check off to-do items, download PDFs and other attached files, and more. As always, Evernote is available for free through the Palm App Catalog.
Native snapshot notes (with location)
You can now create snapshot notes without leaving the Evernote app. Just tap on the Snapshot Note option in the new note screen. After you’ve taken your photo, you will be given the option to add text, tags, and assign the note to a specific notebook. As a bonus, snapshots taken within Evernote will capture your GPS location, allowing you to plot them on a map later.
Snapshot notes are great for taking photos of everything from business cards to wine labels. Once the image arrives in Evernote, we run it through our recognition servers, making any printed or handwritten text searchable. Give it a shot.
Load files and PDFs
Evernote for Palm Pre lets you download and view files that are attached to your notes. Simply tap on the file to download it. Once downloaded, it will launch in whatever native viewer you have for that file type. You can attach new files from either the desktop or web versions of Evernote.
A note on file attachments: Free users can attach images, audio, and PDFs to their notes. Evernote Premium subscribers can attach and sync any type of file. Learn more about Evernote Premium ยป
Checkbox and to-dos
You’ve created an itinerary or shopping list using Evernote on your desktop. Evernote for Palm Pre now lets you check off the items in your list as you go. Nice and simple.
Edit pending notes
Once you finish making a note, the note is placed into a Pending queue while it waits to be uploaded to the Evernote Service. In this latest update, Evernote for Palm Pre lets you make changes to notes in your Pending queue.
Languages!
Evernote for Palm Pre is now available in French, Italian and German.
And lots more…
There are lots of other under-the-hood improvements, including native support for the camera roll, better handling of accounts with large numbers of tags, and more. Go on and explore.

Hi Evernoties,
I’m a user from germany and I couldn’t get this new version via the official app store … it seems this update is only available to US customer. Would it be possible to send me the ipk file per email or making it available to german customers too?
Thanks in advance
Frank

Are you planning for EverNote for Linux (Ubuntu) ?
Pleaseee…
Rob
I have the same problem in Europe: please make sure that the update is also available in Europe. Alternatively: send the update by email or publish in Precentral.
Rob
To moderators: Europe problem solved by replacing a downgraded app catalogue tot the 1.3.1 version

Can you please have a setting for the palm webos app to not open every note in a new card. This really slows down my experience. Prefer to use web interface, but it does not remember my credentials – have to log in each time. thanks

This is great that Palm Pre and Pixi get an update… but when will Symbian users be let in on the party? I love the idea of evernote, but while in New Zealand it is too expensive to use mobile evernote application – so I could really use the application so I could sync up notes when plugged into my PC.
THANKS!!

@Frank,
Did you try using App Catalog 1.3.1, as recommended by @Rob?
Carlos
When will the Pre users be able to make Audio Notes? That’d be BIG plus!

+1, i understand that the API from Palm hasn’t unlocked the mic yet but since evernote is sooooo popular i feel like they should at least get a crack at it…. i still cant believe after sooooo many years of having a voice memo feature incorporated on their devices Palm ‘forgot’ to put it on its jesus-phone…. so disappointed right now…
Jason
Please can we get a search feature other than recent notes or nearby. I love capturing but it is a pain to try to find notes on the palm version. Search by tags search by word please please!!
Scott
Hi Jason – How do you search on the Pre? I’ve only just got evernote this week and love it for the desktop but trying to find notes is a nightmare and is putting me off what is actually a great app/tool. Thanks in advance for your advice.
Ann
I agree! I would love to find out that I’ve missed something and that there is a more efficient way to search for notes. The desktop format makes sense to me, but the Pre app doesn’t. Please advise!
philippe
Update is live today in the App Catalog in France
Thanks for your job Evernote
And, Audio Notes ?
Dave
Can you save your data to the Pre? This would come in handy if you were on a plane or in a basement with no Wifi or cell service.

Okay, I just got my new Palm Pixi and I searched the app store but I don’t see Evernote? Am I not looking in the right place?

I love evernote more everyday. The desktop app and the online version is great. The only problem I have is with my pre. I cannot open evernote when I am on the phone, thus I cannot use it to take notes on the call. if I could do that I would really appreciate it. if it just had a option for online or offline mode. open the app and sync later that would be great.
It does work if I have the app open, but then I have to have it open all the time and that is annoying. It will force me to find a different note program.
Dave
Are there any plans to have our notes saved on the device for Palm webOS? That would be awesome. It looks like you have it for the iPhone already.
Victor
Please add OFFLINE functionality! That is the only reason I am not using Evernote.
Jesse Lahey
Really need Evernote on WebOS to search by tag.
thanks, Jesse
Jesse Lahey
Good news! I just discovered by accident a way to search by tag on WebOS. On your desktop Evernote, search for the tag, then save the search. After syncing, you will see that saved search on your Palm in the same menu as “Recent Notes” and “Search Nearby.” I saved all the searches that I think I’d commonly need on my Palm … Errands To Do, Phone Calls to Make, Receipts, etc. I hope this helps others too.
