The new Evernote Web continues to get better and better. In addition to numerous behind-the-scenes improvements, this week we’re adding a much requested feature: List View. Sign into Evernote Web to see it in action.

List View

You now have two ways to display notes in Evernote Web: Snippets View and List View. To change the way your note list is displayed, click on View Options above the note list, then select List View.


When you initially switch views, the list will extend all the way to the bottom of the window. Once you click on a note, the note view pane will appear. As always, you can edit and share the note by clicking on the appropriate buttons above the note list.

You can resize the note view pane by bringing your mouse to the horizontal line above the pane, then click and drag to resize to your liking. To hide the note pane, click Close Note and you’ll be able to scroll through the note list at full window height.

More to come

Evernote Web keeps getting more powerful. Lots more to come…

    I had switched back to old Evernote web because the list view was missing from the big update so this is good.

    I wish I could say this was great, but tbh I think this should’ve been in there long ago. Personally I do not only prefer this view, but I can’t stand the others. :p

    One plus though (I guess?) is that the web client is actually starting to look as good or even better than the desktop. Atleast on Mac. Same for the iPhone-version!

    The Mac Desktop client is riddled with problems when it comes to sharing notebooks. Although the entire team is on pro accounts, some of us can’t edit shared notebooks, while others, with the same setup, have no problems editing, but can’t delete anything.

    At least with webview, most things work most of the time.

    I like it. Would love to see this in the Mac/Windows version: list of all notes, then click on one and you get a new split screen.

    The new view is great, but still unusable for most of my day. It really needs to have last notebook opened that the older version has… when I am at home, the cookie remembers where I was, when at work, the same.

    However, the new version opens to basically an all notes view, and I simply cannot do that at the office.

    Awesome Update. List view is superior.

    But I think there need to be more of a separation between the list and the note. The white background on everything makes the list and note blend together vertically. I suggest the title of the note, with the tags, show details, close note, etc. have a green background to it to really separate the list from the note you’re viewing.

    I too appreciate this new feature. Would it be possible to have it remember what journal we last had opened and what View Option and Sorting was last set? I dislike having to change it to the list view every time I log in.

    Thanks for all the hard work on the new web application (switching back from Windows desktop version which would always slow my computer down over time (memory leak?)).

    Snippet view looks great! Would love to see this feature on the Mac version. Thanks for the great product.

    I just signed into Evernote for the first time in a while and discovered the new list view feature — LOVE IT! It will definitely make me more likely to use Evernote regularly in the future.

    But is there a way to save “list view” as my preferred setting? As opposed to having to re-select it every time I log in? Thanks!
