With it, you can upload up to 1GB of photos, documents, PDFs and other files per month (versus 60MB with a free account). The Evernote Plus subscription is designed for individuals and costs $3 per month or $25 per year.

If you need more storage space or want more features, there are two paid plans worth a look. With a free subscription, you're not likely to run into any issues, unless you want to upload a lot of photos or other files into your notes. Luckily for anyone who doesn't want to spend money, Evernote's free service is robust, with plenty of features and few limitations. If you aren't a premium subscriber, you'll simply see related notes from your Evernote account below your current note. Magazine, the Wall Street Journal and other publications for the articles you see in Context. Evernote partnered with Fast Company, Inc. I find it appears most often below other articles I've clipped, but it's also supposed to show up when your notes have keywords that also pertain to any news articles. It's a really neat feature that's unfortunately limited on mobile for the time being and only available if you pay for the premium Evernote service (more on that below).įinally, Context is another premium-only feature that surfaces relevant news articles below your notes to augment what you've already saved or written in Evernote.

Presentation Mode is a new feature for premium users only, meant to completely replace standalone presentation programs. If, like me, you only use Evernote for yourself, the Work Chat features are useless and best ignored. Work Chat is only useful for people who collaborate inside Evernote, since it lets you share messages about what you've saved in the service. Work Chat lets you communicate about notes without leaving Evernote. You can add photos and videos inline in text notes and attach other kinds of content too. Within text notes, you can add bulleted and numbered lists, as well as checklists, tweak the font formatting to bold, italic or strikethrough and highlight sentences and passages.

Your notes can consist of text, images, Web clippings, audio recordings, reminders and even file attachments. With a tap of the plus sign, which appears throughout the app, you can start typing out a new note quickly, adding formatting as you go. There are many ways to create notes and collections of notes, called notebooks.

The Android and iOS apps are great for both reading notes you've already created on Evernote's desktop apps and website, and creating new content on the fly. The app isn't a pretty as the iOS version, but for actually getting around and browsing my notes, I actually prefer the Android app. There's also a handy floating menu of shortcuts to create a new note that includes options to save attachments, photos, audio, reminders and more. The Android app is a bit more bare-bones, with a mostly white design, a simple slide-out navigation.
