The Material Design visual guidelines strongly suggested by Google has probably affected almost all apps that are found on Android devices. Some adapt it totally, while some who are more concerned with their app’s aesthetics have managed to give their own take on the design, without necessarily aiming to look like all of the other ones who’ve adapted it. Evernote‘s latest update certainly incorporates Material Design and at the same time made way for some user-suggested changes and adjustments.
To the untrained and unobservant eye, there might not be much changes from their last major update. But more than just visual adjustments, the app tried to incorporate improvements in the note-taking experience of its users, because after all, that is the major reason why most people use Evernote. The interface is now more flat but with shadow and depth. Instead of just one screen, the designers see it as being “independent levels” with animations that will make the transitions smoother, as well as guide the user to what they actually need to do. The note editor has been “visually pared down” so there are no distractions when you’re writing.
The collaborative features of Evernote are something new, and so adjustments are continually being added. This update now adds the picture of your colleague or friend that is also working on the note. It also has easier entry points into the Work Chat feature so that collaborating becomes easier while you’re both or all of you are working on it. The changes they’ve made have come from the beta community that constantly provide feedback, including which aspects of the Material Design are not applicable to the digital workspace of Evernote.
The latest update is now available for download on the Google Play Store. If you’re still not using Evernote on your Android device, you’re missing out a lot when it comes to productivity and collaborative apps.
