OneNote is a convenient tool for doing research, taking notes, and organizing information. Occasionally, you might want to share these notes with someone else, but you don't want the recipient to. OneNote is a powerful note-taking app with several features baked into it. The new version of OneNote looks more promising with dark mode and Sticky Notes integration working flawlessly.

Essentially, it is a digital notebook available anytime, anywhere. OneNote is available as a traditional desktop app, a web app, and a mobile app. In addition, a simplified OneNote version comes pre-installed with Windows 10. The features available to the user depend on the version and environment used.

There are many reasons. It is a very powerful program with lots of versatility.

• You can create sections and pages just like a traditional notebook, then save and organize your typed or handwritten notes, and other stuff such as photos, files, links to websites, screen clippings, videos, etc.
  • You can create further navigational structure by creating section groups or subpages and your own templates.
  • You can search for items by text, tags, or author.
• OneNote integrates easily with Microsoft Outlook and other Office products.
  • You can email a message to OneNote or email notes captured in OneNote to others. Items assigned in OneNote appear as Tasks in Outlook.
  • You can easily send Word and PowerPoint files to OneNote.
  • You can take notes based on a Word document or PowerPoint presentation and link the notes to the original source file for reference.
• You can share your notebooks with specific people through a direct email or to the world through a sharing link.
• You can set permissions to view only or with editing privileges. You can password protect sections.
• You can view recent edits and revert to a previous version if necessary.
• You can do other cool things too.
  • For example, you can ask Cortana or Siri to take notes for you.
  • Another thing you can do is covert handwritten notes to text.
  • Finally, you can take notes on a webpage and then save a screen clip with annotations to OneNote.
