There were also lots of people like me, who’d grown unhappy with Evernote and wanted to be kept informed of my project.Īnd there was one tweet that solved it all: A link to a ZIP file containing this free script, by a clever guy named Larry Salibra, living in Hong Kong. Evernote defenders were quick to lash out for my apparent intention to commit treason. I hadn’t anticipated that my tweet would generate so much reaction. “Anyone found a utility that transfers Evernote into the new Apple Notes app?” I tweeted. In frustration, I turned to the Oracle: Twitter. I searched online for a solution and came up empty-handed. The only problem: Apple Notes can’t import notes from any other program. It has taken a full stride into Evernote-land, without becoming unwieldy and slow. The new version (for iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan) has full paragraph and character formatting, bulleted lists, checklists, Web links, and pasted graphics, videos, maps, and documents. They actually use those advanced features, and that’s great.īut I’ll bet most people would prefer just a quick, simple, searchable notepad.Īs a happy coincidence, Apple recently made an announcement about its own notes app, which used to be a very simple, mostly text-only app that syncs across Macs and iPhones/iPads: It was getting an upgrade. Now, let’s be clear: Lots of people love Evernote just the way it is. It’s too slow to open too.) Apple hits all the right ‘Notes’ I’ve got about 1,300 notes in there, and I don’t want to wait. Also: The nags to upgrade to one of the paid versions have increased dramatically in frequency, and it’s annoying.įinally, Evernote has gotten slow.
