Note sharing improvements
Evernote for Android makes it easy to share select memories with whomever you like. In this update, we’ve increased the control you have over shared notes and also made sharing options more accessible.
We’ve redesigned the sharing screen completely. Now, when you share a single note, the URL appears at the top of the sharing screen. If at any point you decide to stop sharing, tap on the Disable URL option. Once you deactivate a shared note, the link will stop working for everyone that you shared with.
There are now several ways to access the sharing menu:
- Tap and hold the note in the note list
- When viewing a note, tap the Menu button
- When viewing a note, tap on the down arrow in the note title bar
Notebook type icons
We’re always looking for ways to give you as much information at-a-glace as possible. In this update, we’ve added icons that indicate notebook type. When you view your notebook list, you’ll see whether a notebook has been shared with an individual, the world, or not at all. It’s a great way to quickly know the state of each notebook.
Faster access to editing and options
We’ve added a pencil icon to the note title bar when you’re viewing a note. Tap this icon to edit note content. Tap the arrow next to the edit icon to view a bunch of additional note-related options.
And more…
We’ve also improved our login and registration flows, fixed lots of bugs and made the app just plain better. Stay tuned, we have lots more in store.

It’s a great idea to give HTC Sensation away.

Omg! A HTC sensation XL! If I had it, I would use it for almost everything in my life from taking pictures, shooting videos and listening to music. Music makes my world go round so with a new HTC sensation XL enhanced with beats audio, I guess you could say it makes every second of my life worth living, not to mention it being an awesome Christmas present.

What would I do if I had a new HTC sensation XL, I’ve been thinking of this ever since I heard about the phone. I guess I would use it for everything in my life, from taking picture, shooting videos, taking down notes with evernote and last but not least, listening to music! Music makes my world go round so with the new HTC sensation XL with enhanced beats audio, I would be able to listen to music from a whole new angle! Not to mention it being an awesome Christmas present!

My name is Kass.
I’m a musician, producer and film-maker hoping to hit the big time. Evernote is an amazing tool I use on a daily basis, to organize what would otherwise be an incredibly unwieldy schedule.
By using Evernote, I am able to record lyrics and capture album art on the fly. I can also jot down set-lists and ideas before I hit the stage and when I’m on the move, which is an absolute blessing.
Evernote takes all the functionality of paper, then adds to it – making your notes interactive – you can search, edit and share your notes more than you ever could dream of doing with a pen and pad.
Overall, for me, Evernote’s strongest point is its enchanting ability to quietly and unintrusively slide into my life, allowing me more freedom to get my job done.
A HTC Sensation XL would be great for me, because I could use Evernote when away from the computer, as well as organizing playlists, taking pictures with the stunning 8 Megapixel Camera, using GPS to make sure I reach gigs on time, and of course getting in touch with other DJs to set up collaborations.
The best of luck to my fellow entrants – I am @kassmusiq on Twitter.
Thank you,
Karamjot Singh
I’m going to use the phone everyday to use Evernote because right now I have to turn my PC on to look at my notes, and it gets frustrating when I need to check my notes but i’m not at home! And HTC is my favourite phone brand
Also I really want to play Angry Birds and download apps, my current phone is old so I cant do those things 
Brett Bailey
The HTC Sensation XL will help bring workplace into the 21st century. We use Evernote as a part of our paperless office, and being able to show off the capabilities of Evernote on a mobile platform will be a big boost to our efforts.
Timothé Rambault
As a Evernote and HTC user, I would use the HTC Sensation XL to organise tasks and events, but mostly to take note of everything I could (mostly because my brain is overflowing with ideas every day), and listening to music with the best equipment (Daft Punk would sound amazing with it) !
Anyway, thank you for this HTC Giveaway
Michał Newiak
I would use this awesome device to surf the internet, contact with friends on Facebook and Twitter, watch movie trailers on IMDB, snapping photos of everything I like and then storing it on Evernote. I will use it to get acces to all my stuuf storred at Evernote account.
KKop
I would use it to record my phone calls to Evernote, take photos of whiteboard discussions at work and upload to EN, listen to the podcast, view and update EN docs.
Masafumi Okada
I’d like to use HTC sensation to take photos of some personal invoices and upload it to my evernote account. I can search information on paper because Evernote will OCR it.
Tanmay Patel
The HTC Sensation XL will help me in completing my little tasks on the go like checking mails and accessing social networks. I’ll store my necessary documents and images or notes within it so I’ll be able to access them anytime using evernote. I can use other apps ti hand over task to remember to the phone it self so that i can get free and have some time for me. Gaming and fun on android devices… Wooot…
btw… you guys at evernote rock. The posts on this blog helps us in using evernote in more ways then we can. Thanks guys.. Love yaa…
Javier Fernandez
I´ll use the phone, to listen music decently when I am out of my home. To look my evernote in the street, and of course to call people.
Bostjan Kolar
I would enjoy using the HTC Sensation XL’s big screen for note taking with Evernote, emailing, playing games and listening to music.
Hillel Gray
I would probably use the HTC Sensation XL instead of my phone and ipod touch, which currently syncs my evernotes with my Mac.
Charlie E
I recently started using Evernote. And its really great to just capture my thoughts and ideas. We were on vacation and I took snap shots of some items form the Harry Potter store in the Airport for gift ideas for my son. By the time I got home I would have forgotten them. But we remembered and were able to order them and didn’t have to pack the more delicate items.
I also find it really helpful to remembers what wines I like. We go out for dinner and order a glass. If I like it, I take a snap shot of the name of the wine from the menu and then add my own notes.
T. Grundy
The HTC Sensation XL and Evernote would be my primary mobile tools for researching how to break into the voiceover business. It would enable me to efficiently store and recall the websites, blogs, YouTube videos, etc. that I’m currently discovering and reviewing in addition to providing me the ability to record ideas, notes and plans related to this process.
Shantanuraj Patil
My name is Shantanuraj Patil (London), I am just graduated from University of Birmingham with MSc in Human Resource Management. (Congratulations to me!!!!). I am now looking for job and in this recession scenario it is very difficult to find a good job. Now, I am managing my job applications with the help of Evernote. After having an HTC Sensation I can go even further and can manage on the go, wherever and whenever I want. I have been using Evernote to manage my notes, essays and dissertation from college. follow me on twitter Shantanu_HR.

I’m using evernote a lot, both for professional reasons (I’m a researcher) and for personal stuff.
One specific thing I love about the HTC sensation is that it has a much bigger screen than my current android, so I would really be able to get the most out of skitch, a very promising tool.
I’d like to use skitch for making ink notes on my phone, and a bigger screen is really needed to do that.
Keep up the good work evernote!

Darlene
oh, I would use the HTC Sensation XL for everything!!! It would be so perfect with Evernote. I don’t have a smart phone yet, so I’ve been using Evernote on all my home PCs and on an iPod Touch. While it works wonderful on there, I don’t carry it that often because I’m also carrying a cell phone. The Sensation would make it all click!
Adrian Morgan
I would use this to replace my iphone with its broken screen!
Jason Sun
I will use HTC sensation XL to listen to music and organize my ideas with evernote.
Damian
I would use the HTC Sensation XL in every way imaginable. A phone, computer, music player, Evernote organizer, paper weight, flash light, door stop…just kidding…but you get my drift! ***fingers crossed***
Carmen N
I use Evernote all the time but hate that it’s “tied” to my laptop or when I can find internet access. I would love to have the HTC Sensation XL so I can keep my lists and notes with me all the time!
Samir Rathod
HTC Sensation XL has 4.7″ screen which is useful for viewing notes those are clipped from laptop, skitching images captured from mobile for social as well as note taking purpose and beats headphones are exellent combination with 4.7″ screen when viewing movies and videos.
Internet surfing experience will be way better with 4.7″ screen and with help of dolphin for android(Which has evernote extesion) i can also clip webpage from android and save to evernote and this way i can use my idle time for some productive work.
Park, Junseok
As you know, HTC Sense UI is so great!
In addition, when it comes with “Evernote”,
it will be the best smart note whereever.
I will use Sensation XL for noting everything.
Where ever, whenever and whoever.
I want to be a REAL-SMART-USER of the world!
Seongseon Ghim
I will do weight training, using htc sensation xl.
Sophie
I use Evernote a lot; not only for personal stuff (recipes, menus, to do lists, …) but also because I’m a geek genealogist.
I scann every article of my favorite magazine and keep it in Evernote.
I also use Evernote to organize my genealogy files and use it at the archives center. I travel paperless.
Having an HTC would make it a lot easier and fun. Its large screen would be great to read my scans or the old papers I can scan thanks to Evernote.
As I intend to become a professional genealogist, Evernote would definitely be my right arm !
SUDHEE R SEN GUPTA
I am a small business consultant. Always struggling with my windows phone and outlook. I need to have more order and ease in my life. With Sensation and evernote I will try to gradually migrate out of the windows paralysis and be more free.
Peter Pfahl
I’d use it to retire my aging HTC Desire
Malte Tubenthal
My Name is Malte and I am from Germany. Since I have no Smartphone yet, I would realy love to have it
I think I would use it not only for using your fantastic App and reading your blog but also for playing games and of course listening to music. Another thing I would use the phone for is chatting with friends and browsing the internet.
Jeffery Yeung
With a new hTc sensation, I can watch movies, videos on the huge HD screen, play games and even surf the web. I don’t have a smartphone yet, so I really wanted a really nice phone that plays music, takes pics and surfs the web. Usually I use the PC to go onto evernote but I’ll be able to go on the website with the htc sensation.
Andrea Michi
I would use my HTC Sensation XL and Evernote (obviously) to improve my study time. Take one picture of a part of the book I have to study, and with the use of Skitch, I can add useful arrows and texts in that picture (it helps my memory), then with Evernote I can study when I have a few minutes to spare.
Thanks Evernote.
Katherine B
I will use the new phone not only to manage my family’s calendar and activities, but it will be very helpful to entertain my toddler at those times when he needs to be quiet, and I just can’t do it alone.
JASON LEUNG
With a HTC Sensation XL and Evernote, my life will be fully organized.
KEVIN L.
I would be able to share my life easier with HTC Sensation XL and Evernote.
Tarot
I’ll give Sensation XL to my mother.
Chay Bennett
I will use the HTC Sensation XL every day to listen to podcasts, keep track of my schedule, remember everything with Evernote and keep up with news and information.
Adalbert Pakura
I’d love a HTC Sensation XL to work on my dissertation on the go … I’ve got all my stuff in Evernote and the huge screen is tempting
Stefanie Lambertz
With the HTC Sensation XL my life simply would be better! I still have the HTC Desire of the first generation with hardly no internal memory and a small display. I would love to get a new smartphone, especially the HTC Sensation XL with its big touchscreen. I could simply organize my life more efficient with Evernote and skitch on a bigger screen and with more memory!
Merry Christmas to everyone!
And, A Happy New Year!
Natalie Shmigelsky
I would give this phone to my hubby b/c he really needs a new one! Love all the features on it! nlevdan3 at yahoo dot com
