Does Turbo Tax desktop app transmit amendments?

Can I mail the final amended tax return even though I made several changes in the desktop app?

I've been making several amendments to my 2017 tax return.  After I printed it, and I noticed there were errors.  I haven't mailed in the amendments yet.  Is it okay that I mail in the last and final amendments, even though I made several changes on the app?

The only reason I'm worried is that, after each amendment, the app said the file has been transmitted.  I thought amendments can't be transmitted and are only processed by mail?

NO, amendments cannot be e-filed.  They must be printed and mailed.  If you go through the steps it looks like they are e-filed sometimes, but they are not.
