I wish they would put the tabs back up at the top like they were originally... then I would use it full time again. Great video! 👍

This is a rock solid option for everyone and easy to use in the mid term 😊

Hello, over the years i experimented with lots of apps - notability, goodnotes, apple notes, nebo, muse etc etc.
I found Microsoft onenote is the best as per my needs.  I will be sticking with this for rest of my life.
- It has a infinite canvas for detailed research study.
- It supports apple pencil for infinite handwritten notes
- Integrates well with outlook meetings.
- Also syncs well with all my devices.

OneNote on the iPad is great for taking notes in meetings or for setting a drawing as a page’s background image, for marking up when I’m visiting a site. However, it’s about time Microsoft made it possible to customise tags, or at least to use the custom tags I’ve set up on my desktop version of OneNote - who needs the useless example tags like “Project A” and “Project B”? My custom tags are pretty much essential to my workflow.

LOVE ONENOTE!! Im a Samsung guy, so not issue prone on my side of tech. GREAT CHANNEL!!

Audio syncing is the reason why I prefer to use oneone in windows. Android/Apple onenote are very limited. I wish they would carry on these features to different OS.

[JohnSmith-gbhd]

OneNote’s strict hierarchical organization system is its biggest weakness. It needs proper tags with smart folders.

20:15 - I've been saying that for years. They don't want ON to move ahead, because it will compete with Word.

Hello, may I ask have you faced any kind of palm rejection issue when using the ipad? Cause mine personally I did have a lot of issues in this…btw this is on iPadOS 17.7

A “ Paperless” Onenote for iPad course would be fun!😉

[jerrymoreno]

Amazing and comprehensive review. My source channel for iPad productivity!

[CoachSherri]

Are you able to share your OneNote notebooks from an iPad Apple device to a Dell device at work we use Dell products at home. I use Apple and I’d like to take notes on my iPad in one note and be able to sync it with my work, OneNote. Do you think that’s possible?

I can add custom fonts. They are at the bottom of the list. On Mac they appear in the "Mac OS X Fonts" section

How is the paid version compared to the free version?

[kiku]

i love stickers but i dont have that feature on my onenote app, currently using ipad 10th generation. Cant find any help from anywhere😭😭😭😭.

[prateekprakash]

I use onenote on windows OS, which lets me fullscreen to the entire screen as the note-taking page. In your video, it seems that even after full-screen, the top two bars remain present horizontally, taking up crucial amount of horizontal page space in an ipad, leading to more frequent scrolling in landscape mode. Can't onenote go FULL FULL-SCREEN on ipads?

[barbaracamicia]

Non poter personalizzare il modello della pagina è il suo più grosso limite, credo che dovrò cambiare app per prendere appunti organizzati 😥

1:26 - No median between 100Mb & 1Tb. This is where Google is better

[brachinusGT]

One Note still has no projection mode and no laserpointer. Completly useless to use as a teacher.
