Evernote has announced some changes to its pricing tiers today, and people aren't going to like any of this.

That's one computer and one phone, or one phone and one tablet, or any other combination - but the total has to be two. Previously, there was no such limit in place.
Next up, both paid plans are getting more expensive. Evernote Plus used to cost $2.99 per month or $24.99 per year. This now changes to $3.99 and $34.99, respectively. Evernote Premium will cost $7.99 each month, or $69.99 for a whole year, up from $5.99 and $49.99, respectively.
The company says the price hikes are necessary for it to survive, since it doesn't use ads or sell your data to make money. The changes will apply to everyone.

The same goes for the two device limit of the Basic plan - new users get this from day one, while existing Basic tier users "will have some time to adjust before the changes take effect". Evernote says to expect a message about the situation "in the coming days".

I hear what you're saying and agree, Evernote seems to be doing this out of survival because the service is their only source of revenue. That said, the Google's and Microsoft's of the world have their own note-taking apps which are almost as g...
