Scannable Generated Notes are Not Editable in Evernote

Recommended Posts

When I scan a business card using Scannable, Evernote does not let me modify the note, except for the note's title.  

This is correct behaviour, as I need to:

1) Correct ECRs (ex. simplify phone numbers)

2) Add personal notes (ex. make a note as to why I have this person's business card)

Thanks

I'm running into the same problem and it's confusing and frustrating.  Here's what I've tried:

 

- scan card on my iPhone using Scannable or with Evernote

- i am able to add notes on the phone itself, but I'd like to edit notes on my Mac

- on my mac there is an "Add Notes..." field, but typing notes here will disappear and are not saved when I leave the note

- on evernote.com in a web browser the note shows a little lock and says it's not editable.

 

Not having the ability to edit / add notes to scanned cards is unfortunate; hopefully it's just a bug that needs fixing.

 

One workaround I found that was mentioned in another forum post is to merge a blank note with the scanned document and then it works, but that shouldn't be necessary.

 

Thanks!
