I've just started using again after I got my Chromebook. It really is the interface Evernote should be imho. Easy to use, responsive, and also enable proper (in my view) searching and LISTING of notes....I really don't like the Evernote Chromebook/Web experience and this get over a lot of that. Main concern is that not a lot happens with it - I don't want to get invested and then it be dropped.
