Why Folino instead of Evernote?

Pay once, not monthly

Folders, notes and checklists are free. If you want more, unlock Premium once – no monthly fees.
Folders as deep as you like

Instead of stack › notebook, build your structure with as many levels as you need: Work › Clients › Project › Minutes.
Start without an account

Folino stores your notes on your device. You only need an account if you want to sync via Google Drive with Premium.

Send individual notes via your phone’s share menu – no retyping.

Install Folino and create your folders, for example “Work” and “Personal”.
Open the note in Evernote, select the text and tap “Share” › Folino.
Folino creates a new note from it. Move it into the right folder if needed – done.

Can I import all my Evernote notes at once?

No, there’s no Evernote import. You move notes one by one via the share menu and decide right away what you actually take with you.

Does Folino cost anything?

No. Folders, subfolders, notes and checklists are free and ad-free. Premium is a one-time purchase – no subscription.

Can I keep using Evernote in parallel?

Yes. Sharing copies the text, your notes in Evernote stay unchanged. Switch at your own pace.

Free for Android and iOS. No ads, no subscription.
