Why can’t I collaborate on notes?

It says “Collaboration not available”, when I try to collaborate on a note or share a link to a note, but my phone is up to date and it gives me an error even before I type in a contact to share with. Using 16.1.1 and I have more than enough iCloud space. Tried restarting my phone too.

I found a fix on the support page.......


Go to settings

Click on your name

Click on ICloud

Click on  APPS USING ICLOUD  

Go to ICloud Drive – turn it to ON

Scroll down to Freeform - turn it to ON


 Mine was off, but this fixed the issue!!


Hope this fix worked for everyone!

Doesn’t seem to be working on my end. iCloud drive is on, note is not password protected, both mine and my partners phones are updated with the latest ios 16.3.1 software, both phones have plenty of on device storage as well as iCloud storage available. Any suggestions aside from the standard level 1 tech support stuff like “turn off your device and turn back on”?
