While it’s taken a while for Evernote to deliver the app, it looks like the wait was worth it for Windows Phone 7 users. The new app features a stylish design that blows the iOS and Android Evernote offerings out of the water, and it even sports a nifty note mapping feature not available on any other platform.

The service lets you file a note on any of its apps — including a web app for desktops and native clients for Windows and Mac computers. You can include pictures, voice recordings, and more, and get access to them on any platform with an Evernote app.

The app also allows you to store location information in your notes and view them on a map. Doing so could help you remember where you filed a particular note, since it serves as a way to leave digital breadcrumbs. Currently, this feature doesn’t exist in other mobile Evernote apps.
I haven’t had a chance to play around with the app yet, but it looks like a good start for Evernote’s Windows Phone 7 support. From the screenshots alone, the app looks more polished than any other mobile Evernote offering — though I’m certainly hoping we see revamped iOS and Android apps on the horizon as well.
Mountain View, Calif., based Evernote has raised around $45 million in funding from Sequoia Capital, Morgenthaler Ventures, DoCoMo Capital, Troika Dialog, and others.
