(Evernote has not said anything about doing so, however.) You don’t have to use a toy app like Evernote Touch. And all one needs to do is look at the mess with Skype and all its separate app versions, each with its own unique features, to understand why going full native on every platform makes absolutely no sense at all.įor Evernote users, this means a consistent, well-understood, and full-featured app will continue to be available on Windows, and on Windows 10 in particular it can easily be updated to utilize unique Windows 10/UWP features. But I think of this as a victory, for Evernote, for its users, and for Microsoft.įor Evernote, this means that they don’t need to develop and maintain a separate UWP version of its app. To some Windows enthusiasts, this will be disappointing for reasons I find hard to understand. Instead, it is using Microsoft’s Project Centennial technologies to wrap its current Windows desktop (Win32) application in a UWP shell, so it can be offered through the Store. To be clear, Evernote is not developing a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) version of its app. “Customers who currently use Evernote Touch can continue to do so, but it will no longer be available for download or update.”
“On August 2, 2016, Evernote Touch will be replaced with the full-featured Evernote for Windows desktop app in the Windows Store,” an Evernote statement explains. And in doing so, it will also halt development of its mobile companion app, called Evernote Touch. Evernote will bring its core desktop application to the Windows Store on August 2.
