The latest OneNote app is available as part of Microsoft 365, comes pre-installed with Office on Windows 11, and can be downloaded as a free standalone app.While OneNote has technically worked on Android tablets before, the devices merely had access to a blown-up smartphone interface. The company is working through the integration of two of its OneNote apps for Windows. Microsoft recently updated OneNote with new inking features, better page sorting, and AI-powered dictation capabilities. Lastly, Microsoft has improved the login experience for new OneNote users with automatic single sign-on (SSO). Settings options (three vertical buttons) also allow users to take a sticky note from the Home tab. Voice dictation is now available in nine languages, with 18 more languages in preview. The new integration provides a variety of filters and image-editing tools that let users extract text from a document and transfer it directly to a note. The app lets users take pictures of receipts, business cards, whiteboards and sticky notes, and then save them to OneNote in text format with OCR. Microsoft brought Office Lens to iOS and Android in 2015. Integration between OneNote and Microsoft’s Lens PDF scanner is another area to receive refinement.

There’s also a swipe-down gesture to sync notes, while a long press on a note card provides shortcuts to delete, move, copy, share and add notes to the home screen of the smartphone.

Users can apply filters by note type, notebook page, sticky note, Samsung note, or signed-in account. New OneNote for Android lets users organize notes on the Home tab and sort them by the date they were updated, by date of creation, or alphabetically. OneNote users on Android can tap on a note card to view or edit a note, or long-press on it to take a quick action. The Home page displays the Recent Notebooks page, Sticky Notes, and Samsung Notes from all signed-in accounts in one unified view. Microsoft lets Samsung Galaxy owners sync Samsung Notes with OneNote Feed to create a bridge between Galaxy Android and Windows devices.
