It doesn’t take long to memorize four or five of the most useful Evernote search filters. Once I hit search, I’ve narrowed it down to one result, the proposal I’m looking for. My new search looks like this: Intitle:Proposal Created:Day-20. Taking it a step further, I remember creating this note in the last 20 days, so I add another search operator that used the date the note was created. That narrows my search results to only seven notes to look through: Since I know that that the work “proposal” was in the title of my note, I use Intitle:Proposal to search this time. While it wouldn’t take me that long to look through the 81 results to find what I’m looking for, why should I spend time on it at all? Instead, I can use a search operator, such as, “Intitle:” to filter and narrow the results. First I do a general search on the word proposal which returns 81 notes:
In the example below, I’m looking for a proposal letter I started and would like to finish. Instead of searching through hundreds of saved notes, you can find what you’re looking for more easily by using Evernote’s search filters.
