    Hi Caroline,

    You mentioned that you can view the forms but not edit them. Based on what you described, it seems like you might be accessing the forms in a way that only allows viewing submissions, not editing the form itself.

    Let me help you with that:

    1. If you are using the Jotform Mobile App, you can edit submissions by tapping on the form, then selecting Submissions, choosing the submission you want to edit, and tapping the Pencil icon to make changes.
    2. If you want to edit the form design or fields, you need to open the form in the Jotform Form Builder on the web or in the app's form builder mode, not just in the submission view.
    3. Make sure you have the right permissions to edit the form. If the form was shared with you, you might only have view access, which prevents editing.

    If you want, I can guide you step-by-step on how to open and edit your form properly.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
