Evernote for iOS Update Makes Editing Notes Easier

Product updates | By Andrew Sinkov

Evernote for iOS got a great new update. You can now edit a note just by tapping into the note’s body. The feature keeps track of where you tap in the note and places the cursor in the right spot. When you’re done editing, tap on the keyboard icon and the keyboard will slide away.

It may seem small, but it actually makes using the app much more efficient. Enjoy.

    How is it that I can hand write on the Evernote desktop client using my mouse, but I hand write notes in the iPad app? Would love to see that on iOS.

    Whats the status on fixing the latest update that was supposed to fix the last update to ios? Evernote still crashes on launch and is unusable on iOS for me.

      Hi Bob, we did release an update so be sure to upgrade to the latest version!

  • Mike Sutcliffe

    The new version will not stay open on my iPhone 3gs running ios 5. Crashes within seconds of opening. The app is no longer usable on my phone.

    With the new update my PDF files won’t open in a note on my ipad. It just gives me the option to open in dropbox or box. Hope this is correct soon.

      Rob, we’re aware that this is an issue for certain iPad users and are working to address it.

    I haven’t had problems with crashing, strangely. Unfortunately, I am -still- waiting for Stacks on iOS. Or at least a nested view like Android has. Come on, your iOS users feel really shafted in this area :(

    I find it incredible that a company that’s usually as forward-thinking as Evernote has remained virtually silent (just one brief comment above) about what is clearly a MAJOR problem for many users — with many, many more complaints voiced on the App Store. An acknowledgment of the problem, a statement about how you are handling it, and maybe even an apology, would go a long way toward reassuring those of us who pay you $40 a year, and others who might, that you care about us. Instead of the frequent glitzy Evernote blog posts that are often irrelevant, how about some frank talk that shows us that real human beings (who can make mistakes and acknowledge them), are running the show? PR 101 teaches that, I believe. Thanks.

    I would like to add to the litany of complaint that Evernote 4.3.1 on iPad will no longer display pdf file, nor will it open the file in any pdf app. This is CLEARLY because the OS is not recognizing the file type. It sees it as an unknown file type and offers opening the file in any installed file handler (dropbox, FileApp, etc). This is a huge problem that clearly outweigh any benefits with 4.3.1, since most of us use Evernote to handle storing and viewing pdfs. This is a fix that should have been corrected within a few hours of release. The kind of bug that kept everybody at the office around the clock until fixed. My support for Evernote has dropped 90%. Not because of the bug, but because an acknowledgement and fix-time estimate was not immediately sent. I am currently at a convention that happens once every three years, and all my documents needed during the 8 day meeting are on my iPad in Evernote, in pdf. You can imagine how annoyed I am.

    I, too, am unable to use evernote on my iphone since it crashes before I can even touch the screen. This has been going on since I updated. Please fix this.
