Apart from onenote and dropbox finder integrations (which I can do without) the only remaining Intel app is the Evernote web clipper. I will probably do the same for Evernote, although because of its bloat I don't normally have it running as part of my workflow. To be fair the culprit is probably Microsoft Teams which I normally leave open so I've ditched the desktop version of this and swapped to running it as an Edge browser app which works just as well. As a result I am trying expunge anything Intel based that needs Rosetta (albeit it works very well most of the time). Why are Apple Silicon apps important? Well, something has been ***** with my SSD - after one year with M1 MacBook Air my drive lifetime left is just 85% - TBs and TBs of data have been written to my SSD by kernel task and I have no idea why but I have a hunch that it is something to do with non-M1 apps running in Rosetta with some sort of memory leakage leading to large swap files. This is truly diabolical for a note taking app that I pay £50 for each year. I did wonder if this thing isn't updating each time because literally every time I open there's an update? Oh no, after updating its now 10.28.3. Hmmm.wait a minute it says version 10.27.5. We made some tweaks so it now starts up even faster. If the app seems a little zippier, that's not your imagination. Short launch time in particular is actually huge feature for a notes app where by its nature you dip in and out.

If you want to keep people like me (and my sub is an annual one expiring next year) then optimise your app for my machine. I don’t usually post, I’m a silent user but this is my experience. I hope this feedback is useful to the developers.

Now it just feels bloated and to be honest for my needs there are much faster and snappier alternatives where the dev is obviously committed to the Apple ecosystem, so probably better for me. Tried selecting all my EN notes to export them, it pauses for maybe 10+ seconds actually processing my multiple selection and then popped up a message saying I’d selected more than 50Īfter importing into Bear, multiple selection of all notes (about 80 or so) is instant.Īny other big gripe with EN is the amount of time I end up with editing conflicts so I’m curious to see if Bear handles this any better.įor sure Bear is likely much too dumbed down for many of you good folk but I originally, a few years ago, got Evernote because it seemed equally simple.

This is a brand new MacBook Pro 16 M1, 16GB RAM nothing else running. What’s it doing? By the way around a third of the time seems to be just launching so no window nothing, next third I have a blank window, then I have notes but blurred while the last third does something that eventually unblurs them. 14s makes this so painful! We’re not talking about loading all the textures in a video game or something for goodness sake. Maybe I’m on the phone and want to just write something down. Often I want to just scribble something down. Time taken from clicking to having the first note editable: Today I installed a sort of simpler Evernote alternative for the Apple ecosystem, called Bear and imported all my notes. It’s actually not that much slower than under Intel, but I have noticed that apps optimised for M1 load really quickly. Launch on particular is slow, and it’s not to do with other open apps.
