The real strength of OneNote is its ability to sync across platforms: in addition to desktop and phone apps, OneNote is available as a browser extension or even a website accessible from ANY browser. Microsoft isn’t stingy with the tool, either – OneNote apps are available for OS X, Android, iPhones and iPads, Chromebooks, and even wearable devices like Android Wear or the Apple Watch. All the information in OneNote is connected to your Microsoft account, and syncs almost instantly across devices wherever you have an Internet connection. That said, OneNote is most deeply integrated with Microsoft products like Windows 10 and Windows Phone. One the desktop, OneNote is part of the Office 365 system, a series of applications and services available for a monthly subscription.
Without Office 365, you can access your OneNote information in Windows, but cannot modify it. An alternative is using the web interface.
Download OneNote The following guide assumes that you want to use OneNote in Windows 8 or Windows 10. The general structure of OneNote (and any information you’ve put into it) remains largely the same on all supported platforms, though user interface differences are present from one device to the next. Michael Crider/Digital Trends If your computer came with Windows 8 or Windows 10, OneNote is already installed. Just press the Windows button on your computer’s keyboard (or the Start button on your tablet) and start typing “OneNote” to see it in the list of programs.
If you don’t see it, open the Windows Store instead, and search for “OneNote.” Click “Install” and wait for OneNote to download. Note that there’s really two versions of OneNote available. This guide covers the free app, but you can also access the service through a desktop app that comes bundled with Office365. The instructions here should broadly extend to that but details may differ.
Creating Notebooks The “top” unit in OneNote is the Notebook. These are sort of like file folders in Windows, but each individual Page will appear as a separate listed item rather than a file. To open the Notebook view, click the Menu button – it’s the three horizontal bars next to the “Home” tab at the top of the window. Michael Crider/Digital Trends The Home view is further divided into Sections, which appear as tabs beneath the editing tools, and Pages, the final and smallest part of One Note. You can create new Sections in the same way as you created a new Notebook: click the “+” button in the tab area. To rename them, right-click or long-press the tab, then click “Rename Section.” You can also change the text color or pin the individual section to the Start menu.
Pages Pages are the last item in OneNote, and they’re where most of your actual information will go. Each section begins with a blank untitled note. Click above the auto-generate date and time to create a title for this specific note, then click below it to start typing. That’s it – once you insert text into a Page, it will automatically appear across every computer, phone, and tablet that you’ve installed OneNote on. To create a new Page, click the “+” symbol next to Pages in the left column.

Michael Crider/Digital Trends Editing pages is more or less the same as it is in any word processor. The editing ribbon beneath the “Home” tab allows you to alter text with bold, italic, or underline modifiers. Click the “down” button to change font size or color. Bullets, numbers, and tab spacing is handled in the next section, with justification and tags available by clicking the “down” button. Adding tags to pieces of text can make them easier to search for in the side menu. Insert, Draw, and View Like a word processor, certain text can be augmented with the Insert tool.
