How to sync your notes across devices

Evernote automatically saves and syncs your notes across all connected devices. This means you don’t need to manually sync, Evernote keeps everything up to date for you.

However, if you're looking for a way to manually force a sync, here’s what you can do:

Syncing a single note manually

Although syncing happens automatically, you can try forcing a sync for a single note by:

  • Switching the note to offline mode and then back online. This can trigger the app to sync that specific note.

Manually forcing a full sync across devices

If you need to force a sync for all of your notes and updates across devices, here are the steps you can follow:

On desktop app (macOS and Windows)

Performing a full reinstallation of the Evernote app will force a complete sync, re-downloading all your notes from the cloud.

On mobile app (iOS and Android)

To force a sync of all your notes on mobile, you can reinstall the Evernote app. After reinstalling, the app will re-sync all of your notes from the cloud.

Syncing happens automatically

Remember, Evernote is designed to sync automatically. You only need to take these steps if you encounter syncing issues or want to manually trigger a full resync.
