New! Evernote Integration and Task Counts
February 23, 2011 | 8 Comments
We have 2 new features we would like to show off today.
Task counts in the web app
If you are using a modern web browser like Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Firefox, you will notice you can get a quick view of your task counts next to each focus. We added this in the mobile apps already and it finally made it into the web app. The green box is the number of tasks and the red is the number of overdue tasks:

Evernote Integration
For those Evernote users out there, we have had many requests to have Get It Done import your Evernote notebooks into the app. If you don’t know what Evernote is, it is a popular app which makes it easy for you to collect notes and files.
If you are an Evernote user we make it quick and easy to view your evernotes in Get It Done.
To enable Evernote go into your settings in Get It Done and click plugins and click ‘Enable Evernote integration’:
Enable Evernote
You should now see ‘Login to Evernote’ and a new category ‘Evernote Notebooks’
Evernote Login
When you click this you will need to login to Evernote so that we can access your information:
Login to Evernote
After you do this you will need see your notebooks under the ‘Evernote Notebooks’ category along with your projects and focuses:
Evernote Notebooks
When you click on one of your notebooks you will see all of the notes in that particular notebook. If you taged any of the notes in the Evernote application you can filter the notes by clicking on the tab at the top of the page :
Evernote Notes
Finally when you click on a particular note you will see it in Get It Done:
Evernote Note
And that’s it. This is our initial push for Evernote integration, we want to see how people use this feature so we can plan a deeper integration with this and other apps.
Hope you enjoy!

This is great! Maybe in the future we can drop-down Evernote notes to GTDApp.

Big stride in the rigth direction.
Are there plans that evernotes will be able to be edited within GetItDoneApp?
Also, I’d like to see an option in the settings not to show task counts as they stress me out!
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestions, we have some good ideas of where we can take this but we are waiting to see how people are using this new feature.

Would love to see items listed with a checklist icon in Evernote imported to GetItDone as a task (similar to what the Egretlist iPhone app is doing). This would make integration with Evernote an extremely powerful function.

I like the way a competitor does it (i wont name them here) and would love for you to offer a similar implementation.
id love to see evernote tags sync with projects so that when im in any given project i can see all the notes associated with that project.

I would like to import my evernote tasks vis drag and drop into Get it done tasks rather that just view them.
It makes sense to be able to seamlessly migrate the content from one app to another.
Thanks

I use Evernotes extensively. What I would love to be able to do is highlight text in a note, right click and be able to select “Create a Task in GetItDone”.
A window would open allowing the date and project to be selected. Once saved, it shows up in GetItDone and there is some indication in Evernote that there is a task associated.
Any chance?
