In this tutorial, I’ll show you the basics of how to use Evernote, introduce you to the Web Clipper and its wonders, and help you master the search functions that’ll let you find anything in your Evernote, no matter how unorganized you are. And it does all that from any of your devices, for free, so you’ll truly never forget anything. The magic of Evernote is that it’s an app where you can add everything-from typed-in notes to scanned documents to photos of a restaurant menu-in one unorganized mess, and it can still make sense of the madness and let you find anything you’ve ever added in seconds. The rest of us unorganized people would still be unorganized, and still wouldn’t be taking notes. If it was only an app where you could type in notes, the most organized among us would be using it to write the details of their lives and works, but that’d be it.

And yet, being a notebook app doesn’t even begin to explain its popularity. It’s nearly synonymous with digital notes.

Evernote’s perhaps the most well-known digital notebook app ever made.
