Can't share from SMS to Evernote

[Creative1 8]

Not a software person here, so my vocabulary is probably off. 

If I try to share a photo from an SMS thread to my Evernote account, using the Evernote share icon, it just does'nt work.  OK, it works 30% of the time, I tested it.  And, you have to have the Anroid app open and unlocked to even have a chance.  And, even then, it's a 50% chance, so you have to sit there for 3-5 minutes waiting for the note to show up, so you know it worked.
