Discover the new features of Evernote's sharing system, making it easier to collaborate even with non-users. A step-by-step tutorial reveals the one-click share button, enhancing teamwork and communication. Perfect for freelancers or anyone needing seamless sharing. Tune in for practical tips and insights on maximizing your productivity with this revamped tool!
Evernote's new sharing system allows users to collaborate on notes with non-Evernote users through easily generated view or edit links.
Despite powerful features for collaboration, shared notes have limitations, such as the inability to play multimedia elements directly within the shared interface.
Deep dives
Enhanced Note Sharing Features
Evernote has made significant improvements to its note-sharing capabilities, allowing users to share notes with individuals who do not have an Evernote account. By clicking a one-click share button, users can generate a link that grants either view-only or edit permissions to others. This functionality enables real-time collaboration, where changes made by one user instantly appear for the other, enhancing productivity and communication. The streamlined sharing process eliminates the need for recipients to sign up for Evernote, making it more accessible for collaborative work.
Limitations and Usability of the Shared Editor
While the new sharing features are powerful, there are limitations to the shared editing experience in Evernote. Users can insert various elements such as links, quotes, and checkboxes in the shared editor, but multimedia elements like audio recordings, images, and attachments are not playable within the shared window. However, recipients can still download shared audio recordings. Overall, these enhancements provide a convenient way to collaborate effectively while also highlighting areas where the functionality differs from the main app.
