After expanding their note-taking software OneNote onto <a href="https://www.techspot.com/news/46659-microsoft-releases-onenote-for-ipad-skydrive-and-kinectimals-for-ios.html">Apple’s iOS</a> range of devices in December, Microsoft has followed up by releasing a version for Android which is now available for download through the <a href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.microsoft.office.onenote">Android Market</a>. With the Redmond based giant's cross-platform divergence almost complete, the mobile version of their app is now available on Windows Phone, iPhone, iPad and now Android tablets and smartphones.</p>

"No matter which platform you prefer, OneNote Mobile lets you easily capture and access all of your notes and ideas on the go," Michael Oldenburg of Microsoft wrote in a <a href="https://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft-onenote/archive/2012/02/07/onenote-mobile-for-android-is-now-available-worldwide.aspx">blog post </a>yesterday. Those wishing to use the app will need to login with a Windows Live ID in order to automatically sync notebooks to Microsoft’s Live SkyDrive.</p>
<p>
The interface has a Windows Phone feel to it and offers users with most of the commonly used functionality of the bigger computer based versions, as well as synchronization with Microsoft Office 2010 products.</p>

The Android version features text formatting, images and bulleted lists as well as to-do lists with clickable checklists. You’ll also be able to capture photos using your phone's camera, store and access OneNote notebooks, sync notes over Wi-Fi (as an alternative to SkyDrive sync), and store notebooks for offline access. The portable version also offers table editing and a built-in spell checker.</p>

Two versions will be offered, the first free to download but capping usage at 500 notes, or a paid version which offers unlimited notes for a one time fee of $4.99 for US customers. Pricing for other regions will follow shortly.</p><p><a rel='canonical' href='https://www.techspot.com/news/47369-microsoft-releases-onenote-for-android-os.html' target='_blank'>Permalink to story.</a></p><p class='permalink'><a rel='canonical' href='https://www.techspot.com/news/47369-microsoft-releases-onenote-for-android-os.html'>https://www.techspot.com/news/47369-microsoft-releases-onenote-for-android-os.html</a></p>
