How to unlock an uneditable (read-only) note?


Recommended Posts

I have a note that will not let me edit it and when I try it says "This note is read-only. It was created in another app." I don't know how this happened or what it means by 'another app.' I just want to be able to edit it again because I update this one somewhat often. Any ideas how to remove the lock and how this happened in the first place? Thanks

Hi.  There are several threads around with variations on this in different operating systems.  Generic advice would be to create a new note and copy the old content into it.  Delete the original.

Is this the Android bug being discussed here?
