Evernote announces support for Apple Watch coming soon

You would have been hard pressed to miss today's news, as the Apple hype machine was running at full speed. The announcements kept on coming -- Apple TV with a reduced price and an HBO Now exclusive, new MacBooks and of course the much anticipated watch. However, the devil is in the details -- a new product like the Apple Watch can live or die based on support from developers.

That likely won't be a problem, and note-taking giant Evernote is among the first to throw its support behind this new platform. The service works on just about every platform, so this should come as little surprise.

"We’ve long believed that wearable technology isn’t about miniaturizing apps to a new platform, it’s about rethinking apps to be quick and glanceable. An app on a watch doesn’t replace an app on the phone, it complements it", says Evernote's Andrew Sinkov.

The new app will sync with the iPhone in an effort to bring a seamless experience with note taking, searches and more. Essentially, the way it already works with computers, phones and tablets. "Set reminders and check items off your list without ever taking out your phone. Start reading a note on Apple Watch, then continue reading it on your iPhone with a swipe of the lock screen. It’s one app that moves with you from wrist to hand and back again".

The announcement reads "coming soon", but exact availability isn't given. The watch is a little ways off, so it's possible that Evernote will be there at launch, but we'll have to wait and see.
