Stashr vs Evernote
Evernote is still a capable, mature note-taking app, with one of the best web clippers around and search that reads text inside images and handwriting. Since Bending Spoons took over, though, the price has roughly doubled and the free plan is capped at 50 notes and one notebook. And it was never built for social: it cannot capture your X, Reddit, Instagram, or TikTok saves. Stashr does that automatically, keeps its own copy of the text and images, and costs less.
What happened to Evernote
Bending Spoons acquired Evernote in early 2023, then raised prices sharply (renewals jumped as much as 80%) and, on December 4, 2023, capped the free plan at 50 notes and a single notebook. In late 2025 the Personal and Professional plans were replaced by Starter and Advanced, with the top individual plan now $249.99 a year.
If the price hikes and the gutted free tier have you looking elsewhere, Stashr captures everything you save across X, Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok automatically, keeps its own permanent copy, and starts at $8 a month with no note cap.

Common questions
The verdict
Evernote is still a strong note-taking app. Its web clipper is one of the best, and search that reads text inside images, PDFs, and handwriting remains genuinely useful, so if you live in long-form notes and clipped articles it can still serve you well. The trouble is the trajectory. Under Bending Spoons the price has roughly doubled, the free plan is now capped at 50 notes and one notebook, and the top individual tier runs $249.99 a year. And Evernote was never built for social saves: it cannot capture your X, Reddit, Instagram, or TikTok bookmarks. Stashr captures all four automatically, keeps its own copy of the text and images so a deleted post survives, tags it on the way in, and starts at $8 a month. For a social-first library you want kept and searchable, Stashr is the better and cheaper home.
