A new flavor of the Evernote for Android application is now available for download, namely version 5.1, packing a feature that also made it inside the latest flavor of the Windows Phone client, namely Reminders.

Through it, users can set due date and notifications for notes, mark notes as done, and order reminders by date or manually, as they best consider it fit.

“Adding a Reminder is as simple as tapping on the alarm clock icon in a note. Once you’ve created a Reminder, you can optionally add a due date using our beautifully-designed date selector,” Evernote explains.

“By adding a due date, you will receive notifications both on your device and via email (if you like) to keep your work on track. You can disable the email digests from the Reminders section in Settings.”

The new app iteration also comes with improved copy / paste in note view, as well as with better shortcuts functionality, and enhanced Japanese support for all compatible Android devices.

Furthermore, the application provides users with the option to create reminders in any note view and note composer, to view them by notebook, and to subscribe to Reminders in Shared and Business Notebooks.

“Reminders are not only great for staying on top of what’s important in your account, they also keep you updated on projects that you’re working on with others,” Evernote explains.

“Whenever you view a Shared Notebook or Business Notebook, you can choose to subscribe to that notebook’s Reminders. You’ll be notified about due dates for those notes just as you would for your own.”

In order to quickly subscribe to multiple shared notebooks, users can simply tap on the more dots at the bottom of the notebook list.

The latest version of Evernote for Android also corrects photo order in multi-shot camera, the company announced.
