The new note button allows you to quickly create a blank note, or select from a range of note types so you can get started right away. Evernote team released a new client and shut down many features the old Evernote Windows Client had. I want to say that I am fed up with Evernote and their attitude to the customers. Like many other users, I was a beta tester of their new client and reported about many bugs, lacking functionality, UI problems.
Popular note app and task management platform Evernote announced last September a major redesign for its mobile website and apps. Today, Evernote unveiled a new dashboard called “Home,” which brings multiple information such as notes, drafts, and documents in one place.
Evernote users will now have a more immersive and intuitive experience when accessing the platform. The new Home menu brings suggestions of useful content to help you start your day, including your notes, a scratch pad, your notebooks, documents, files, and more.
Home is a brand-new way to start your day in Evernote; a one-stop dashboard that puts the information you need front and center—neatly organized and instantly available—so you can stay on top of your day without feeling overwhelmed.
Users who have an Evernote Basic or Plus account will have access to the following widgets: Notes, Scratch Pad, Recently Captured, Notebooks, Pinned Note, Tags, and Shortcuts. If you’re an Evernote Premium or Business subscriber, you’ll be able to resize, reorganize, or even remove widgets from your Home, in addition to options for changing the background.
Check out the video below that shows how the new Home dashboard works on Evernote:
The new Home experience will be rolled out to users over the next few weeks for Mac, Windows, and web, with updates for iOS and Android apps coming later this year. You can learn more about the new Evernote Home in this official blog post.

Evernote has been quiet for 18 months, but now that their foundations are more solid and the app has been unified across the platforms, they can now focus themselves on shipping new features faster.
Evernote Release Notes
We had a chat with Evernote's CEO Ian Small and we talked about what's going to happen in the upcoming months.
Ian Small explained they brought their first version of the new Evernote to market in the past few weeks, releasing the new iOS app, after 18 months since their announcement.
The New Evernote
They decided that, in order to ship more updates, they had to build a new version of Evernote from the ground up.
Their main goal is to unify the Evernote apps they have across five different devices and make them work and look all the same.
They now write a third of the code they used to since they managed to simplified things during these past months. This means they'll be able to ship updates and fix bugs faster than before.
Ian Small's expectation is that they are going to ship more innovation over the next 12 months then they've shipped in the last five years. They aim to get major updates twice or three times a quarter from now on.
They plan to have some large-scale innovation; new features that will change the way you think of Evernote and a significant new integration that will give the users more options and change their workflow.
Ian Small stated that he doesn't see Evernote trying to keep up with the newest app on the market like RoamResearch and Notion, because they both have their own points and they became known when they started filling the gaps where Evernote had failed over the last few years. At Evernote, they focused themselves on shipping more business-related features than single-user related ones during the past couple of years.
Moving forward, Evernote needs to learn from Notion and RoamResearch, trying to implement more innovation that would make more sense for the app without necessarily copy what has already been done. They don't aim to try and make a better version of other apps in the market.
The next 12 months are going to be quite exciting. They have three significant advances in the product at various stages that Ian Small called 'boulders', two in development and one in design, that are going to be shipped during the next six to nine months.
