Q: iOS 10 - collaborating on notes

I'm using an iPhone 6. I tried to use the collaborate option within the notes but it doesn't appear at the top of my notes at all. I tried googling and it said the option doesn't appear until I have typed something so I tried that but still no option to collaborate. Any suggestions on how to fix that?

iPhone 6, iOS 10

    Hi grace9826, 
     
     Thanks for using Apple Support Communities to post your question. The new invite features in the Notes app is a great way to collaborate and share notes wth friends and family. If you are having issues sending an invite, you want to make sure that the basic requirements are met for your devices to take advantage of this awesome new feature! Please have a quick look at the link and info below. 


    Share your notes

    Add people to a note
    Invite someone to collaborate on a note through Mail or Messages. Or copy a link to the note and send it to them any other way you like. Then they can open your note and start editing, just like that.
    Open the iCloud note that you want to share.
    Tap or click  .
    Choose how you'd like to send your invitation.
    On your Mac, click Share.
    Want to know if you're already sharing a note? Look for at the top of your note or  in the notes list.

     


    These steps will have you inviting and sharing your notes in no time! Happy writing!

    Hi Grace:

     

    I had the same problem with Notes on iOS 10.

    I found that the problem can be solved activating Notes on iCloud. To do that go to Settings > Notes > Accounts > iCloud or Settings > iCloud.

    After that, go to your Notes app and create a new one on the iCloud folder.

     

    Hope it helps to everyone.

    Sergio.
