[Notion] I switched from Evernote✨

Hello⛅️ I'm umi.

Do you use a note-taking app?
I use a few.

I have been using other apps besides the one mentioned in the article above, and I would like to talk about switching from that app✨


📒Evernote

From over 10 years ago until last year, I mainly used Evernote on my PC.
When I started, it was 2,400 yen per year (300 yen per month).

It was such a convenient app that I paid annually and used it to the fullest✨

I threw a lot of information into it, such as clipping websites, things about my children, lists of consumables, and things to do before my divorce.

It is no exaggeration to say that my 10 years are packed into it!😁

Why switch from such a convenient app?

The answer is simple❗️
The price went up every year.
And finally, it went up to 7,500 yen, which is over 5,000 yen per year😱

I can't pay this price for a hobby.
Also, as I stopped using my PC, I had fewer opportunities to use Evernote.

That's why I feel this price is even more expensive.

However, there is one problem.
Yes, I have nowhere to throw the sites I like😱

As soon as I stopped using it, the tabs on my smartphone kept increasing.
I've accumulated so many that I've created four tab groups😂

Although the search function works, it's inconvenient not being able to pull up information quickly.

💡The only thing I'm looking for in an Evernote successor

💡Being able to save an entire page of a site I like✨

By the way, I checked to see if the note-taking apps I currently use could be a successor.

・Awesome Note→ Can clip parts of web pages
・Day One→ Requires third-party tools or manual work to perform web clips

Hmm, neither of them is easy to use, so unfortunately they won't be my successor💦

And after considering it myself, I chose Notion.

📒Notion

💡The benefits of Notion

✅️All-in-one platform

You can manage various functions such as notes, tasks, calendars, and databases in one app.
This eliminates the need to use multiple tools separately, making it possible to work efficiently✨

✅️High customizability

  • Templates
    There are plenty of templates available for various purposes such as project management, note-taking, and journaling, which can be customized to fit your needs

  • Block-based
    Content is managed in "block" units, allowing you to create pages by freely combining elements such as text, images, checklists, and embeds.

✅ Database features

  • Information organization:
    You can manage tasks, projects, contacts, etc., as databases and efficiently organize information using filter and sort functions.

  • Links and relations:
    You can set relations between different databases, enabling complex data management.

✅ Cross-platform support

  • Accessibility
    Available on Web, iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac platforms, allowing access from any device.

✅ Visual design

  • Simple and intuitive:
    The clean and intuitive user interface makes it simple and easy to use.

✅ Collaboration features

  • Real-time editing
    Since you can edit simultaneously with team members, real-time information sharing and collaboration go smoothly.

  • Sharing and permission settings
    You can easily share notes and databases, and by setting detailed access permissions, you can share information only with the people who need it.

✅ You can create a homepage without any HTML or CSS knowledge


It's packed with features, making it feel like the possibilities are endless✨

💡 Usability

I installed an extension to clip webpages.
That's why I chose Notion, after all👍

Since I can easily clip things with this, I'm planning to reduce the pile of tabs on my smartphone!✨

After all, keeping things simple and easy is the best way to go👍

And now that I'm actually using this app, I can't help but have fun with it😆

I suppose it's partly because I'm looking into various things, but time just flew by⌛

Since the way it's used is completely different from Evernote, I was confused at first, but
it's a very user-friendly app😊

In my next post, I'd like to introduce the differences from Evernote, the confusion I felt as a beginner, and the Home I created✨
