Every so often our engineers introduce a feature that has me staring at my screen slack-jawed, wondering how in the world that sort of magic is even possible. Today, is one of those days. Evernote Web now lets you drag and drop files from your desktop into notes when using Google Chrome or Safari.
No way?!? That’s so cool.
You have two options:
- Grab a file from your desktop and drag and drop it onto a notebook in the left-hand notebook panel. This will create a new note containing just that file.
- Open a new note and drag the file into the note. When you drag the file over the note, you will see a green bar appear along the top of the note. Drop it on that green bar.

Don’t forget, free users can attach images, audio, and PDFs. Premium users can attach any file type, up to 50MB.
