Evernote alternative

The best Evernote alternative in 2025

Evernote raised its prices and cut its free tier. Simple Notes gives you everything you actually use — for free.

Why people leave Evernote

  • Free tier now limited to 1 device only
  • Price increased to $14.99/month for Personal
  • The interface has become cluttered with rarely-used features
  • Sync is slower than it used to be
  • Data export requires a paid account

Why Simple Notes is a great Evernote alternative

  • Simple Notes is free on all your devices — no device limits ever
  • Clean, distraction-free interface that loads in under a second
  • Markdown support for structured writing
  • Version history on every note — restore any previous state
  • Public sharing with a single toggle

Evernote was the go-to note-taking app for years. But in 2023, they limited the free plan to a single device and raised Pro prices significantly. Millions of users started looking for alternatives — and Simple Notes is built for exactly that.
