Product updates | By Andrew Sinkov

Evernote for iPhone gets its first major update in a few months, and it was well worth the wait. The latest release (version 2.0) introduces landscape support, thumbnail view, Favorites sorting, speed improvements, and lots of other enhancements. Update/install the latest from the App Store.

Landscaping

Evernote now supports landscape orientation for many of its application screens. This is particularly useful when creating or editing a note, as it brings up the spacious landscape keyboard.

Thumbnail view

Turn your iPhone on its side when in Notes View to launch thumbnails. This side-scrolling view is great for quickly scanning through your notes. Tap on a note to access it, or hold your finger on a note to get a quick zoom.

Sort your favorites

Evernote for iPhone now lets you change the order of your favorites. Go to Favorites, tap Edit, then press on the three horizontal lines on the right side of the note. When you do this, the note pops out, letting you move it to any position you like.

Embedded browser

There’s now an embedded browser within the app. Whenever you click on a link in a note, the browser will launch right inside of Evernote. This makes viewing web pages, and returning to your notes when you’re done, a whole lot faster and easier.

Lots of other improvements

In addition to the big things, we’ve also made a number of smaller (but no less important) enhancements

  • The application loads quicker
  • A nip here, a tuck there and the UI just became much more polished
  • Attaching a photo to a note is way speedier
  • Note geo-tagging is much more accurate
  • Improved support for favorites, including access to attached files

As always, we recommend giving you’re iPhone a cleansing reboot after upgrading to the new version of Evernote. Call us superstitious, but that just seems to make it work much smoother.

iPhone 3.0

Like many of you iPhone fans out there, we’re very excited about the recent iPhone 3.0 news. We have lots of ideas for ways to take full advantage of all the new capabilities. Stay tuned.

    If you are having troubles with notes just being blank when you open them try what I did. Uninstall Evernote, turn your iPhone/iPod Touch off and then on again (don’t just respring) and then reinstall the app. It is now working perfectly for me. Amazing app.

    First of all congratulations on a great product suite. I do think you guys may be missing out on a revenue opportunity though. I can’t imagine I’ll need enough bandwidth to justify paying for a premium account (never say never though!). I would, however, pay for a much, much better iPhone app. That would mean the ability to cache all or some of my notebooks to my iPhone. There are plenty of occasions when i have no or limited connectivity and where this is essential. Security on the iPhone needs to be improved too. The regular logon is a little cumbersome on such a small device and again, doesn’t work at all if there is no connectivity. Much better to have an iPhone pin in place. Styling could be improved too.

    Evernote is such a wonderful idea/program. However, I am having a problem integrating the “saving” function into my use of it on my iphone. By that, I mean that I use evernote on my iphone exclusively for quick voice notes (because I am very verbal and also trying to type a note into the iphone is like trying to get in your car with a coat hanger–big fingers maybe). And when I am holding on to a thought I appear to be too preoccupied to be able save the notes through the illogical steps the Evernote program requires(stop>save>save(again for naming). Is there any way to bypass this (i.e. simply through a “preference” option) such that when I hit “stop” it saves the note . . period. For this I would pay $100, without it for me Evernote is more than useless as I am losing valuable information. Can this be done through any current settings? I pray so!!!

      @Robert We’ll be improving that functionality. Stay tuned.

    Painfully Slow then Crash then slow then crash the slow then FAIL

    Adding a camera roll note does not allow for tile or tagging it just dumps straight into sync and then painfully Slow then Crash then slow then crash the slow then FAIL

    Am I the only one? Am I missing something?

    How do I sync “favorites” to iPhone app?

    Thanks for expressing your ideas. The first thing is that students have a choice between fed student loan along with a private student loan where it is easier to select student loan debt consolidation than over the federal education loan.
