Dave Edwards explains recent updates to Evernote's plans, highlighting changes to the free plan that now includes a variety of features previously put behind a paywall—such as offline notes, PDF annotations, and advanced search functions. Despite these improvements, free users are still limited to 50 notes and one notebook. Edwards contrasts this with the benefits of a paid personal account, which allows for 100,000 notes and 1,000 notebooks, larger note sizes, and a higher monthly upload limit. He emphasizes that while a paid plan might seem costly, it provides significant advantages for heavy users who rely on Evernote for productivity. The newly redesigned website and a link for comparing features are also mentioned.

In this segment, the speaker, Dave Edwards, discusses recent changes to Evernote’s free plan. Previously, in December 2023, Evernote placed many of its features behind a paywall, which upset many users. Edwards, an Evernote expert, expressed his frustration and suggested a trial period instead. Now, Evernote has responded by making some features free again. The free plan will include 14 features such as offline notes, PDF annotations, business card scanning, spreadsheet previews, and advanced search functions. Additionally, users can email notes to Evernote, share notes via email, and use custom keyboard shortcuts and templates. However, free users are still limited to 50 notes and one notebook.

The paid plan also offers a significantly higher monthly upload limit of 10 GB versus 60 MB for free accounts.
