Evernote now supports iOS 13's dark mode setting

Evernote already has Dark Mode built-in, but now the app supports iOS 13's system-wide Dark theme toggle. What this means is if you set your iPhone to the Dark theme (dark mode everywhere!), then Evernote will follow suit. When you open the app, it'll have a black background. 

The update for the cloud-based, note-taking app is now available from the App Store for the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch (if necessity really calls for it).

Evernote to limit free accounts to two devices, raise prices for paying accounts

Moving on to more news about notetaking apps. This time, though, this might not be something you’d want to hear. Evernote is dialing back access to free users (a.k.a. Basic accounts) and just allowing access to it from two devices. Aside from that, they’re also raising prices for Plus and Premium price tiers for new subscribers. For Basic users, you have “at least 30 days” to work out which devices you’ll have working with your account. You can check this link to remove or manage the devices associated with your Evernote account.

As for the price hike, it seems not all users will be affected but you will be notified if you are. Plus plans jump to US$34.99 per year or $3.99 per month (from the previous $2.99) and Premium plans jump to $69.99 per year or $7.99 per month (from the previous $5.99). Evernote said plainly that they’re doing this to help maintain the quality of service they offer.

Evernote for Android introduces new ways to scan and edit documents, plus other new features

Looking to make it easier for Android users to scan documents and upload it on Evernote. The app now lets you simply take a photo of said document. The app has two photo-capturing modes: automatic and manual. With automatic, it can detect the size of the document and allow you to edit it later. The images you take will be added to a gallery where you can pick which ones to keep. For manual, you can select the format in which you want to save your scans. Annotations have also been added to the Android app, you can mark up images directly in Evernote with things like arrows, shapes, stamps, and text. Images on the screen are now optimized for mobile, so you get a consistent look of your notes, no matter what device you’re using. There are also new formatting styles, including strikethrough, subscript, and superscript, as well as the ability to select multiple notes. The Trash can within the app can also now be emptied as well.

For Evernote Premium users, the in-app camera can now detect business cards and pull these information into a Business Card note that you can preview and edit before you save them. Premium users can also annotate PDF documents that are attached to notes.
