Yes, click on "edit" (Second row icon) and "read only", or right click on the tab of a not (bottom) "read only".

I don´t use AEPIM as extensive as Desktop version. I tried on Android too, but there seems no way to protect notes too.

Hi
In my point of view, it's not necessary to add a non-editable flag in AEPIM
When I read a note in Android, often I drag the text to read below, and often unfortunately trigger the edition of the note : that I do not want to :?
It could be better just to not allow the editing while clicking on the note text :idea:
And to add an edit/write button for that purpose :idea:
Without this action, all note will remain uneditable, not non-editable, and it is better :D — don't you think ?

Or it could be possible to just add a warning pop-up before starting to edit a note by error when manipulating it during the reading :idea:
This warning could even be chosen in the AEPIM note options for those who don't want that kind of behavior or annoyed by a pop-up
