Did you download it first to install (not install directly from link) and have install unkown sources checked...newer version must be removed first...also I have debugging checked (maybe that makes a difference).

 

[moralesd66]

Yeah didnt uninstall newer version. Apk downloaded for when I see the missing features. Thanks.

Slightly off topic, I'm waiting for my pre-ordered note 7 to arrive here in the UK still got a week or so to wait How come Samsung removed action memo?

I think they are trying to slim software size for the new features on the 7...so they gut out apps they feel are unnecessary. I could be wrong though.

Samsung has responded to these criticisms. Action Memo will return in an update to Samsung Notes thatâ??ll roll out before late September.

As soon as the update comes, We can install the new version. Way to go, with the reviews and complaints to Samsung!

So the updated sketchbook comes with all the tools and brushes as the older versions except for the Note 3 version which came with some extras like the log and leaves brush tool as well as all the little people. The new update has the option to buy pro tools for 4.99 but so far I have everything working (I did not activate the free trial, I bypassed straight to the main screen). I am going to keep playing with it just to see if functionality becomes limited after trial period (just in case it activated trial anyways). Maybe the pro tools is a whole different set that aren't included in older versions. The app did force close a couple of times when I was trying to use a smudge tool over a spot that I had already smudged 4 times...

If anyone wants the 2.9.2 version that came with the Note 3 PM me and I'll send it to ya (in case you liked the leaves, logs, and peeps).

just wait a short time then go to playstore and look at your apps and you will see beta on the right... if it's available in your part of the world.. you can download

It shows, just says not compatible

 

[guthrien]

They have the most recent beta on Aptoide. My phone shows not compatible for some bizarre reason but I had no trouble using the beta.

I haven't put it through all the paces yet. It converts all your Action Memos to normal notes at start up so if that bothers you for some reason don't run it. It seems to have some other enhancements with organization but still no Action Memo, tapping for note etc. I really wish we could get some feedback from Samsung about what the goal is here, why it is the arguably most popular feature is removed.

The beta notes about what is added by installing the extensions from within the app are completely inaccurate.

update: I actually think the note and folder tools are great. Some real mprovement with organization and fluidity of adding some things to notes. Just add back action memos!
