9 Evernote Products You Have to Try
You’ve heard a ton of positive stuff about Evernote, but rather than learn about its seemingly endless functionality, you’ve left the app sitting lonely and unused in the Productivity folder of your iPad. After all, Evernote offers so many features, it can get overwhelming — especially when you’d so much rather take a big old nap.
In an effort to help you learn more about Evernote’s potential, we explored its branded products and partner apps. Apart from Evernote’s basic note, memo and archive tools, these products expand the functionality of the app for a richer, more organized experience.
How do you use Evernote? Share your tips and tools in the comments below.
Attach Evernote's Web Clipper extension to your Chrome, Safari, Firefox or IE browser to save important text, photos and links - from news articles to pictures of your dream car.
File these clips into Evernote folders, where you can access them later for information and inspiration.
It seems every time you access a web page, you're bombarded with bright branding and blinking ads. Silence the noise with Evernote Clearly, a Chrome and Firefox extension that reduces pages to content only, for an optimal reading experience.
For instance, generate a dark background with white typography or change the font entirely, if you prefer.
If you don't have time to finish reading, click the Evernote icon to save the page for later.
Evernote CEO Phil Libin explains that the brain doesn't remember contacts in alphabetical order, so why should one's contact list be organized as such?
Evernote Hello logs the people you meet by picture, time you met and the context of the meeting. That way, you can return later and search the timeline of your personal encounters, which appears in a visual, "mosaic" form.
Although a separate app, Evernote Food helps you document the celebrations and memories that surround your favorite meals.
Photograph meals you've mastered and dinner outings you wish to remember. Or use the app to document recipe preparation in a type of photo essay.
Add tags for easy searching and share with social media followers. Best of all, the app syncs with your main Evernote account, so you can access food logs from remote computers or mobile devices.
Say goodbye to flashcards because this app makes learning quick and fun. Evernote Peek transforms your iPad's Smart Cover into a super effective studying tool. Just lift the first section of your segmented Smart Cover to reveal a quiz question. Lift the second segment for the answer.
Those without a branded iPad Smart Cover can use Evernote's virtual smart cover for the same studying experience.
Whether you're jotting notes in chemistry class or handing your iPad over to your little one for some scribbles, Evernote's Penultimate app for iPad celebrates good old-fashioned handwriting. When you're done chicken-scratching, save your notes and artistic creations to folders on Evernote — like you would a notepad.
Marking up a design layout? Annotating a football formation? Drawing hearts around your boyfriend's face? Skitch for Evernote allows you to add arrows, circles and lovey-dovey hearts to digital images on your iPad, Android or Mac.
It's great for sharing professional collaborations, adding fun edits to photos or even planning the perfect wedding proposal.
You can share the finished product(s) in an Apple TV presentation. As always, your creations save to Evernote for easy access.
Link Twitter to your Evernote account to save tweets and links for future reads.
First, follow @myEN on Twitter, whereupon the account will follow you back and tweet you a link to complete the sync. Clink the link to authorize Evernote access to your Twitter. Thereafter, you may either DM @myEN or include its Twitter handle in any regular tweet to save that tweet to your Evernote account.
While not products specifically created by Evernote, many apps and tools partner with the company for improved organization, collaboration and creativity. Evernote capabilities appear on hundreds of third party apps — chances are you're using an Evernote compatible app already.
For instance, send business cards and paper recipes via pre-paid envelope to Shoeboxed, whereupon the service scans all documents into Evernote destinations predetermined by you.
The RightSignature app lets you send Evernote documents as PDFs, whereupon the recipient adds his e-signature and logs the final document into your Evernote account.
