OneNote is a powerful
cross-platform application and Microsoft just rolled out several improvements
for multiple platforms.
Microsoft software helps make
my Apple iPhone 6s Plus a
great business phone. One of the key apps I use daily is OneNote and now we
hear of more OneNote improvements coming
from Microsoft for iOS, OneNote Online, Windows, and Android.
IOS IMPROVEMENTS
One of my
favorite features of OneNote on my Surface Pro 3 is the ability to include
recordings in OneNote. The latest update for iOS adds the ability to include
recorded audio. This can be a very helpful feature for students who want to
record classes or those who want to capture and archive audio memories.
Microsoft also includes 3D Touch
support in the latest iOS update. If you have an iPhone 6s or 6s Plus then you
can 3D Touch on the OneNote icon and quickly create a new note.
ANDROID IMPROVEMENTS
Similar to
the Facebook chat heads that float on your Android smartphone display, you can
now use badges with OneNote. The badge floats on the display after you launch
it from the notification area. This means you can easily add notes while
multi-tasking on Android.
The update
for badge support may take two to three weeks as Microsoft rolls out support in
phases.
WINDOWS IMPROVEMENTS
OneNote
2016 now supports embedding online video into your notes. OneNote supports
YouTube, Vimeo, and Office Mix.
Microsoft
states that more video sources will be added in the future. Embedded video is
now available for Office 265 Home and Personal. It will be coming to OneNote
Online, Windows 10, Mac, iOS, and Android in the coming months.
ONENOTE ONLINE IMPROVEMENTS
File
attachments are now supported in OneNote Online. As Microsoft states on the
Office Blogs page, this can be very helpful for both students and teachers.
