As noted by @Dawn in August, a glitch in the App doesn’t let me edit notes (keyboard doesn’t show; I’m running iOS5). Will this be fixed soon?

Since the update I am unable to edit notes on my Mac, and the response is very very very slow and sticky. I was liking Evernote but have now decided not to use it.

Since this update, changes to notes have not been saving, or in some cases, the entire note is wiped out.

I’ve had to reconstruct about 10 notes in the last month from memory (if the note is wiped out by iphone before the server stores the history snapshot).

I don’t want to remove Evernote from iPhone, but having an “edit” button in the previous version made it easier to avoid:
* accidental edits
* saving blank notes

I use to have an unshaken trust in Evernote’s reliability and advocate it to my friends regularly. Since this update, I’ve been asking for Evernote alternatives that are equivalent to older versions of Evernote which are write-once-and-forget

had to delete evernote from iphone because of this update.

even opening notes causes them to “edit” and replace the current version if they were a previous version. have lost many note changes because of this update. finally gave up and can no longer use evernote on iphone.

terrible feature – how can you remove the cancel button and the sync button and call it an improvement? there is no way to sync contents of a note you are viewing now – there is no way to avoid saving a blank note now – there is no way to cancel edits to a note now and not save them – who thinks of this stuff? terrible ideas one and all – add features – don’t take them away please!!

Hi there,

What i Really miss in all Evernote apps is a possibility to link out not only a single or couple of notes but a tag or even better a saved search in the same style You can link to to notes. That would create a bunch of new possibilities especially to other apps like calendars to use the en infrastructure.

Same problems: impossible to open pdf’s (all my businesscards are in it) + crashes all the time. And when I write this it is 23/8. When will there be an update?

Elizabeth, we are aware of an incompatibility issue some of our users are experiencing on the latest version of our iOS applications. We have submitted a fix to Apple and are awaiting release from the Appstore. The only workaround we officially endorse for users experiencing this issue is to use Evernote Web from their affected mobile device ( https://www.evernote.com/m) until the patch has been released.

Could the company please acknowledge and/or explain the technical glitches with the new update? Surely someone at Evernote is aware of the fact that Evernote constantly crashes (or perhaps the Evernote software engineers don’t have access to their notes, either, due to the constant crashes??). This is very poor PR. I’m a huge fan of Evernote, but with 2+ weeks of radio silence from the company, I’m going to have to consider making a switch. I use (or at least used to use) this App everyday!
