How do I edit a note that isn't attached to a reference?

I have a few notes that aren't attached to a reference and there are a few ways in which I would like to edit them, but can't seem to figure out how to.

First, I would like to be able to attach them to a reference after they have been created.  This is because there are times when the pastor starts into his outline before he has told us the passage he will be speaking from.

Second, I would like to be able to edit the symbol the note is identified by.  This is possible with notes that are connected in some way to a specific word or verse in the Bible, but for "free" notes, that option is missing.  The result is that when I create "free" notes, I have no control over the symbol they are identified by.

Are these things actually possible, and I'm just not seeing them?  If so, can someone please explain to me how I can do these things?  If not, please consider this as a request for these features to be added.

If there is anything you would like me to clarify, please let me know.

    Hi Tim - and welcome to the forums

    The two things you are asking for are possible on the desktop programme but not currently in the mobile apps.

    Do you have Logos on the desktop at all?

    If so, are you able to "retrofit" things after the note has synced from Android to Desktop?

    No, I just have the Android app.  I'm not a pastor or anything myself, so the desktop suite is a little overkill for me (though it does look pretty awesome).  I just use the Android app because of the highlighting and note taking features it has that blow all the other Bible apps out of the water.

    One option is to get the free Logos 6 desktop engine - available at https://www.logos.com/product/46767/logos-6-core-engine - which should enable you to do the things you are looking for.

    Notes and highlights sync between the platforms assuming you use the same credentials

    That's a decent workaround, but I still want the ability to do those things from the app.  I don't want to have to wait till I get home to do that, especially since by then I will have probably forgotten.  Furthermore, if all I'm doing on the desktop is tweaking my notes, it seems like a fairly big waste of space.  I don't even have access to the resources available from Biblia.com.  If it did, I might use it for my morning devotions, but as it is, it's not really very useful for that.
