Evernote offers several options to sort your list of notes.
Sorting behavior
- Note list sorting: When you change the sorting of the note list, it’s applied across all clients.
-
Search result sorting: When you change the sorting of search results, Evernote remembers the last sort order used on each specific device and applies it to future searches on that device.
- Note: On mobile, search results will always be sorted by relevance.
- Notebook sorting: When you change the sorting within a specific notebook, that setting is applied across clients, but only for that notebook. You can set a different sort order for each notebook.
