Send Email Reminders About Shared Notebooks

Product updates | By Andrew Sinkov
 

Sharing notebooks is a great way to work together with your friends, colleagues and classmates. We’ve added a reminder email feature that addresses two needs. First, it allows you to easily alert people to changes in your notebook. Second, it’s a useful way to resend a notebook sharing invitation, if the recipients missed the first one. Here’s how it works.

Sending a reminder

To do this, go to the Manage Sharing screen in the Mac, Windows and Web versions of Evernote, then click on a notebook that you’ve shared with individuals. You’ll notice a new link labelled “Send Reminder.” Clicking this link brings up a popup with a list of all the individuals that you’ve invited to view or edit the notebook. You can either send a reminder note to everyone or to specific people.

Don’t forget, if you’re a Premium user, you can allow others to edit notes in your notebooks.

    In the mean time, can you please implement the Reminder functionality in the iPad and iPhone version of Evernote? And I guess in the Android versions as well.

    When finally all this notification service idea has crystalized out and is implemented I am not sure whether I want email reminders of changes in Evernote shared notebooks in my mailbox. I’d rather keep it inside Evernote. Why? Because I spend more time in Evernote than in my mailclient. In such a case an email reminder becomes superfluous.
    Maybe keep email reminders as optional?
