"Crucial note taking app." Posted 2021-08-14
Pros: Syncs between devices. Works great with keyboards, styluses, and finger inputs. Many drawing options. Can add images, audio, documents.
Cons: File size can get large. There is a bug (?) on android where typing with a keyboard does not allow you to use ctrl+b, ctrl+i, ctrl+u, ctrl+arrow left or right and other common shortcuts. I can't fathom why!!
Overall: No other note taking app has been able to replace this king. I can always carry my notes with me thanks to this app.

"Great For Organizing Classes, Especially With Teams" Posted 2020-10-27
Pros: With OneNote, you can easily organize notes by categories. It works across multiple platforms, so you can use it at home or on the go. You can add text, images, charts, audio, and format and arrange everything however you like. I really like being able to move sections of information around in my notebook. It's very convenient and makes it easier to create a certain flow to the information. It can be used for anything, whether that be business, school, or personal use. You can create to do list, which is a nice feature not all note taking apps have. Each notebook can have subjections to further organize information and can be color coded. OneNote is supported across multiple platforms.
Cons: Sometimes, it can be a little slow. Formatting can be glitch, similar to issues one might encounter with Microsoft Word when doing anything but simple bullet points. You may have to fidget with it to get it exactly right, but it can be done with patience.
Overall: I'm not a huge fan of the overall appearance of OneNote, but it's a great note taking/organizing software. It's often compared to Evernote, but I find them to be vastly different. OneNote can do so much more than Evernote can, and in my opinion, is far superior as a note taking app. You can use OneNote on your phone, a computer, or through your browser, but I find it works best on computer. I have used this to organize notes for students in two different subjects and it worked great, in conjunction with Teams, for keeping all their notes, labs, and deadlines organized for the entire group to see. I haven't used it much for personal use, but I would recommend it for teachers to give a try.
