iPad App Review: Evernote
By JulieBMack
Since its launch, there has been a large selection of productivity apps developed specifically for the iPad. These productivity apps especially note apps have flooded the iPad app store. Some users may find this phenomenon quite strange since the iPad itself comes installed with a native notes application similar to the iPhone. With this in mind, Evernote boasts more functionality and feature than the typical notes iPad app.
The Evernote Application
This app promotes itself to help any user remember everything and anything they ever wanted to keep in mind. Amazingly enough, Evernote describes itself in the app store as a virtual extension of a user’s brain.
This app has a very simple but effect concept where users can make text notes plus save snapshots or pictures of things related to it. This is basically an added feature compared to the standard built in notes app for the iPad.
Features of Evernote
Users will notice that this app has a very simple user friendly design and layout. When users first launch the app the may notice an empty layout since the app is brand new and doesn’t have any saved notes.
Again, Evernote was designed with ease and simplicity in mind so users can swiftly go through their notes without any clutter. Basically, this app features a big area where all the notes are saved and also a tiny task bar located in the upper part of the screen for selection features. The selections features include tabs for All Notes, Notebooks, Tags, Places and Searches.
Users can browse and view their notebooks by simply tapping on the Notebooks or Tabs tab. Also, the Evernote app features a brand new map display located in the Places tab. This new feature will give users an easier way to locate the exact note they are searching for since each not is correlated to a certain place on the map.
Save Texts, Photos, Audio, Notes, and Websites
Evernote is packed with several useful features developed to making your life easier and productive. One of the main features of this app is that it allows users to create not just text notes but also audio and photographic notes as well. This is a very useful feature for people that have trouble remembering things.
Basically, users can create a text note and add pictures or photographs on the notes with specific comments to it plus add a fast audio note if users are in a rush. Another effect feature from Evernote is that users can sync their notes with their Macbook or PC so users are able to organize and manage their notes no matter where they are.
Summary
Evernote is certainly recommended
for people that wish to add more productivity in their lives especially for
people with hectic and demanding jobs. Users can download Evernote from the App
Store for free.You can download this not only for your iPad, but to you home computer as well.
So considering the price and it’s amazing benefits, users should give this note app a try.

I recently started using Evernote and its "free" storage space is severely limited. I have over 4000 pics on my iphone and have used only half the iphone capacity. I uploaded 166 pics from the iphone to Evernote, used 99% of Evernote upload capacity and recieved a warning notice that Evernote utilization would be restricted until the next cycle. From a practical standpoint Evernotes data restriction allows only 2% utilization of my iphones capacity per month. With this strict data limitation, it is more functional to use my iphone, ipad, and laptops and "Forget Evernote".
