Evernote has rolled out an update to its Android app today that brings with it a number of new features including alarms, note-based to-dos, and the ability to pin notes to the top of your note list. The Android update arrives a few weeks after the features were added to the iOS and Mac applications for Apple devices.
New Reminder Feature
Now in Evernote for Android, adding a reminder is as simple as tapping on the alarm clock icon in a note. Once you’ve created a Reminder, you can optionally add a due date. This feature is particularly useful for users who rely on Evernote to manage their tasks and deadlines. By adding a due date, you will receive notifications both on your device and via email if you prefer, to keep you on track. This ensures that important tasks are not overlooked and helps in maintaining productivity.
Moreover, the reminders are not just limited to simple notifications. You can customize them to repeat at specific intervals, making it easier to manage recurring tasks. For instance, if you have a weekly meeting, you can set a reminder to alert you every week at the same time. This level of customization makes Evernote a powerful tool for both personal and professional use.
Check out the video below for a quick overview of the new features.
“All Reminders are pinned to the top of the note list, tag list, and search results. If you want to move a Reminder up or down in the list, just long-press on it. When you’ve completed your task, check it off and get started on the next one.”
Enhanced Note Management
The ability to pin notes to the top of your note list is another significant addition. This feature allows users to keep their most important notes easily accessible. Whether it’s a project plan, a shopping list, or a set of meeting notes, pinning ensures that you don’t have to scroll through numerous entries to find what you need. This is especially beneficial for users who have a large number of notes and need a quick way to access frequently used ones.
In addition to pinning, the update also introduces note-based to-dos. This feature allows you to create to-do lists within your notes, making it easier to manage tasks related to specific projects or topics. For example, if you are planning a trip, you can create a note with all the necessary information and add a to-do list for tasks like booking flights, reserving hotels, and packing. This integrated approach helps in keeping all related information in one place, enhancing organization and efficiency.
