Shortcut to delete/archive note

33 votes

Can we get a keyboard shortcut to delete and/or archive a note? I'm thinking specifically of after doing a big import, but it could also be handy to declutter any scratchpad style notes.

Hey Nick! It could accelerate the process and help our team if you managed to come up with a list of unused keyboard shortcuts that would also make sense for these operations.

I have just run into this myself. After PDFs came over in Evernote I moved all of my notes. I am now wishing I had a way to multi-select or delete files more quickly.

"e" is the shortcut to archive when using Gmail in your browser (once you enable shortcuts that is). That seems like a pretty good, popular option. Obviously only when not actively typing...

It's quite frustrating that there isn't a keyboard way to delete a note. It's too much added "effort" the way it's setup now.

Waiting for the shortcut for deletion to be implemented guys! Also, I'm looking forward to a full app for Mac and Windows where everyone can customize all shortcuts according to their needs.
Take care, Tony!

... 3 years for a low-effort usefull topic... and still not implemented :(
Many things should be polished to have a great user experience in AN, and it is one of this.
