Why is the curvature tool not 'snapping' to anchor points?

I'm a beginner just learning the basics of illustrator. I'm having a problem with the curvature tool not snapping to another path. Some help would be appreciated!

      The curvature tool is automatically snapping to existing points (when within reach), but it cannot show that very well. So when you turn on smart guides, you can also see it.

      Does it snap when you turn on smart guides in the view menu?

      Yes, I just turned it on and it works. Is that the only solution to this? Thanks a lot tho!

      in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

      p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
