There's lots to learn, so don't worry about asking newbie questions, very few of us know it all (I'd forgotten about performance mode).
With a song displayed, if you turn off performance mode then tapping the centre of the screen switches overlay mode on and off (assuming you haven't changed the settings I mentioned before).
When in overlay mode there is a banner across the top and bottom of the screen with a number of icons. The first three on the top banner switch between different editing modes.
The first one, that looks like a clipboard, lets you edit the song notes, which is where we started.
The second one, that looks like a paint brush, is the mode you talk about with the wheel. This lets you type stuff on the music. This is actually the overlay. This has lots of modes controlled by that wheel. You can do things like freehand drawing or stamping symbols or writing text.
The third one, that looks like a pencil, lets you edit the song. This is the same editor as when you created the song in the first place, so you can change the title, collections, etc.
I suggest you create something new and play with all the buttons to see what they do.
There is also stuff about this in the manual around page 74.
I'm running 3.9.11, so you might want to check google play for an update, although none of this has changed recently.
