### 2/5 — Inconsistent results

*2017-08-27, version 4.2.1*

Sometimes this app faithfully captures the webpage and many times it fails.  I always have to check immediately after clipping because it misses more than it hits. I would like to find a more reliable clipper than his one.

### 4/5 — Works, but there are crashes

*2014-06-11, version 3.3.0*

This is a useful app to have, simply because you can save pages opened in Safari to EverWeb via a bookmarklet. The auto clipping though does cause the app to frequently crash.

### 2/5 — Works well but is a pain to set up

*2014-02-19, version 3.2.1*

Once this WebClipper is set up, it works well and clips notes as well as EverNote Clipper. BUT, it is confusing to set up--especially for someone who is doesn't speak "Computer."

### 4/5 — Solid performance, hard to decipher

*2014-02-18, version 3.2.1*

The good: With a little patience, I was rewarded with a bookmark in my browser. When I click that bookmark EverWebClip opens, saves the page to Evernote, and returns to my browser. Yay! I can place that bookmark in any browser. I've done so in both Safari and ICab.

The bad: I can't return to my favorite browser, iCab. I can only choose among Safari, Chrome, and Opera. Not a deal breaker, but disappointing.

The ugly: the app needs to have its text and directions rewritten by a native English speaker. Seriously. It's hard to decipher how to accomplish the above.

### 4/5 — Works great; Instructions need work

*2014-01-30, version 3.2.1*

It took me a while to figure out the bookmarklets because you can’t copy/paste from the app nor does the auto-creation process work as claimed but once I figured it out, everything seems to be working properly. I will keep an eye on it over time but right now this is a perfect solution to a glaring problem with Evernote which is how to clip from Safari on IOS. BTW, be aware that there are two apps for iPhone and iPad (was that really necessary?) and two different bookmarklets for each. That threw me for a while! 

Except for these issues I would give five stars.

### 4/5 — Worked for me

*2014-01-14, version 3.2.1*

This worked for me and will cut several time consuming steps from my current IPAD to EVERNOTE system.  (FYI, I am not a computer programmer, but I do have above average computer skills.)  I just followed the instructions.  When you open the app on your IPad, up in the right hand corner under preferences is “bookmarklet for Safari.”  This is where you need to go.  Even after you follow the instructions, though, you won’t get a little icon on your Safari task bar.  The instructions will explain that you need to rename a bookmark “WebClipper" (or some name you prefer).  Then, when you find a page you want, you select that bookmark to start the program running.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2013-11-30, version 3.2.1*

I love Evernote apps, but I always needed to capture web pages and post quickly and easily into a note.  So, I gave this a try.  I cannot copy anything into a note.  The app just opens a screen with some options, etc.  there is no help file to get you going or anything.  You are on your own.  I am an engineer with an above average ability to figure software out, but this one is beyond me!

### 1/5 — Save your $4.34

*2013-10-08, version 3.2.0*

Couldn't get past the first screen. What the hell?

### 3/5 — Buy the "iPhone version"

*2013-04-28, version 2.2.5*

They have two apps, one for iPad and one for iPhone. They both use a custom bookmark and custom URL. HOWEVER, they don't use the same URL, so you need to make two bookmarks, one for each version.
If you buy the iPhone version, you can run it on your iPad just fine. And since you don't really need to interact with the app much, the smaller app isn't a problem.

### 4/5 — Good functionality but could be improved

*2013-03-19, version 2.2.1*

As long as you know how to add the bookmark, it works pretty well. It would be nice if it fully supported HTML or allowed to clip a page in PDF.

### 1/5 — Cannot install as instructed

*2013-03-17, version 2.2.1*

Safari does not allow editing URL when adding bookmark, so I cannot even install it.

### 4/5 — Works, with patience...

*2013-02-05, version 2.2.1*

After watching the less than ideal instruction video several times, I finally got the app to work and it seems to be doing fine. 

Evernote team: you really need to produce a better and more clear video, maybe with someone talking through it. Oh, and at least fix your typos on the video, makes it distracting.

### 3/5 — You need to know your iPad

*2013-01-26, version 2.2.1*

You need to know how to fully use bookmarks on you iPad to correctly set up this app. When setup it works well 90% of the time.

### 4/5 — Works fine

*2013-01-24, version 2.2.1*

For what it does, it works very well. Reliably and consistently. The output is only as good as the renderers available, but its still pretty handy. An included service that renders a web page as a PDF would be very useful.

### 3/5 — Good, but extremely flawed URL scheme support

*2013-01-23, version 2.2.1*

I use this on both my iPad and iPhone, and while it is definitely buggy (will occasionally fail to populate the URL field, as well as hangs a lot), I generally find it indispensable for sending Safari links to Evernote.

My biggest gripe, however, is with its URL-scheme/bookmarklet support. I sync my iOS bookmarks between my iPhone and iPad via iCloud, and because of this, I can't use the EverWebClipper bookmarklet on both devices because the iPad version uses the URL scheme "everwebclipperhd://", while the iPhone version uses "everwebclipper://". So if you created the bookmarklet on your iPad, invoking the bookmarklet will only work on the iPad, but not the iPhone (or vice versa).

The ugly workaround for this problem is to create two separate bookmarklets for both the iPad and iPhone. But there really should be a unified URL scheme between the iPad and iPhone versions of this app, so you don't have to resort to ugly hacks like this. 

The only reason I can think of as to why there's two different URL schemes is so that cheapskates who purchased the iPhone version first can use the iPhone version app on their iPad, without having to pay for the "HD" iPad version. While that makes sense on the surface, I can't imagine that anyone who purchased the iPad version would have any need to also simultaneously have the iPhone version on their iPad, so there isn't much sense in having a seperate everwebclipperhd:// URL scheme for the iPad.

### 4/5 — works pretty well

*2013-01-20, version 2.2.1*

If you know how to use it correctly and effectively it works pretty well.  The format of what is clipped is not entirely perfect but if you stick with styled it's close.  PDF'ing a website would be nice.  Readibility integrated would nice good too.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Junk

*2018-08-27, version 4.2.1*

I use web clipper all the time on my MacBook, and it’s awesome.  This thing for iOS is crap.  Can’t find clear instructions on how to use it.  Wasted my money!!

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2018-06-17, version 4.2.1*

No intuitive. No instructions. Waste of money

### 1/5 — Most Frustrating!

*2017-11-27, version 4.2.1*

This would be a three-star app if it could work consistently. Worst of all, the app's creators included a mechanism for reporting bugs, but it doesn't work! It allows you to compose an e-mail detailing the problem, but you can't send it. The *Send* command, located at the upper right-hand corner of the frame, never changes from non-selectable-gray to selectable-blue. As such, a one-star review is my only recourse — can you hear me now?

### 1/5 — Can Not See What The Clip Looks Like

*2015-03-12, version 4.0.2*

Prior to clipping it is nice to see if simple works or not so you can decide what kind of clip to use. You can do this on the computer but have not been able to do it on this app.  If you can not see the clip prior it is not worth it.

### 1/5 — Almost always crashes

*2014-06-22, version 3.3.0*

I don't usually write reviews unless something is awesome or awful. Sad to say, this one is awful. I paid $2.99 for this app and I simply can't use it because it crashes 9 times out of 10 that I try. Save yourself the money -- do a Google search for "clip web pages on iPad" and you'll find a simple bookmarklet you can use to clip pages. It won't have the same functionality, but at least you'll actually be able to clip a page, which you cannot with this app. Very, very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Crashes Constantly

*2014-06-09, version 3.3.0*

"Will I get this page without crashing or have to screenshot or copy paste again?"

This is what goes through my mind every time I use it.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2014-03-27, version 3.2.2*

Still a mystery to me how this is supposed to work. 
Use your PC for clipping.

### 1/5 — Save Your Money

*2014-01-11, version 3.2.1*

Use Evernote on iphone and MBPro. So just ordered this. wanted to set up for wife to save pages for a project. Easy, honey, I will set up Evernote for you.  Not so fast!  Cannot make this thing work. Poor instructions. Useless!  Save your money.

### 1/5 — I wish I had not bought this app

*2014-01-01, version 3.2.1*

I usually read reviews before installing any app.  Having used Evernote for some time I bought without looking. First it is for one year only. Second, I cannot make it work.

### 1/5 — What a disappointment

*2013-12-05, version 3.2.1*

My husband has been using Evernote for over a year and enjoys adding web pages to notebooks with Web Clipper. He does all this with the iPhone versions. Recently I got him to put the two apps on my iPhone and found just how easy it is to collect recipes and be able to use the search engine to recall the one I want. I liked it so much I decided to add them to my iPad. What a disappointment. The iPad Web Clipper version does not work. I installed everything just like on my iPhone but when I use the bookmark the info goes to Web Clipper, I hit save and then it just sits there.
I sure hope a fix is coming soon but I'm not holding my breath.

### 5/5 — Happy camper

*2014-08-15, version 3.3.0*

Workers every time for me , never crashed in 2 years

### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2013-05-13, version 2.2.7*

Does just what it's suppose to do.  You do need to read the directions for setting up.  Several options to customize.  So much easier than the copy and paste method.  Be sure and read the directions!
Just what I wanted!  Thank you.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2013-04-19, version 2.2.4*

Works as advertised. Easy to install/setup. Allows pages to be saved in either simple mode or full web page styling. Excellent solution for clipping web pages directly from Safari to Evernote.

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it is supposed to do!

*2012-10-14, version 2.2.0*

Awesome app!  I can not figure out what people are complaining about.  Install it per the instructions and it works great.  Very helpful in compiling different web pages while trying to do web research.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2012-10-11, version 2.2.0*

You need to follow the directions, but you just made my life so much easier! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Makes Evernote as good as a desktop

*2012-09-29, version 2.1.0*

I have been looking for a way to clip quickly as I'm browsing for the iPad because my MBP bit the dust.  This app works every bit as good as my old chrome clipper. 

For less than $5 it crossed another item off my list that was in favor of spending another $1100

Read the install instructions and watch the video and you will be fine

### 5/5 — Better than Evernote's Own

*2012-08-19, version 2.1.0*

Have had a great experience with this app. It is better than the one I have for my desktop. It is difficult to install. I had to watch the installation video several times. But now that I got it, it's been phenomenal. I would fault it one star for difficult installation, but that's Apple's fault. So it's a five-star app and one of my most useful.

### 5/5 — Best App Ever to Clip Pages to Evernote Effortlessly!!!

*2012-08-06, version 2.0.0*

For those who did not notice the video, do go and watch it. It will show you how to add the clip function as a bookmark and then you are set to go. Worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2012-08-02, version 2.0.0*

This app works great! So why all the negative reviews? The only way to clip easily is with a custom bookmark. Unfortunately Apple does not make it easy for apps to add bookmarks to Safari. So the setup is a bit wonky, but that's not the app's fault.

### 4/5 — question

*2015-01-28, version 4.0.2*

How does one delete all the duplications?
People should know articles are automatically saved and one does not have to and should not hit "save"
