Evernote 5 for Mac exits beta, is now live in the Mac App Store

Back at the beginning of the month, when Evernote 5 for Mac launched in beta, the app's creators warned users that they could suffer data corruption, data loss and other such indignities if they tried out the unfinished software. If you chose to wait, you probably made the right call: just two weeks later, a final, more stable version of the note-taking app is live in the Mac App Store. All told, version 5 has 100-plus new features, with some of the bigger ones including: a left pane showing tags, shortcuts and recent notes; a redesigned note list; and a predictive search feature called Type Ahead.

Should that be the case, you'll only have to wait "a bit" for the public release of the final software. Also, if you snagged Evernote via Apple's App Store, your local notebooks may be endangered by the beta; "if you install the beta, you will lose all of your local notebooks," Evernote says. Should you be bold enough to participate, instructions are right here.

What does Evernote's latest release contain, pray tell? Smarter search with TypeAhead, for one, not to mention a more graphics-heavy note interface. The fine folks at Evernote have a full video rundown of new features in Evernote 5, which we've dropped below.
