How to save handwriting while taking note

[mooseo 0]

I'm trying to get in the habit of using the new handwritten notes feature. I have a Galaxy Note 2, with the S-pen, and it mostly works well.

 

The problem, though, is that doesn't seem to save the notes automatically. After I've added 5 or so pages of handwritten notes, my phone starts to slow down and eventually Evernote crashes. At that point, I realize that none of those notes have saved...

 

Thus far, the only way I can figure out how to save is to press the back arrow to get out of the handwritting, then again to exit the note, at which point it will save. 

 

Is there any way I can just quickly save the note as I add another page? Anything I can do to stop this crashing problem in the first place?

I have a similar issue where evernote crashes when I am in handwriting mode, even when it's sometimes only a page.  Love the native handwriting so I don't have to use S-Note and export as a JPG, but just lost another note today due to crashing.  I'm using a Galaxy Note 10.1.

I have the same issue.  Evernote crashes when I'm handwriting and I lose all my notes.  Seems like this would be something that should just work with no issue.
