Starting today, OneNote Mobile for iPhone helps free your ideas

Partial view of OneNote on iPhoneIf you use an iPhone, now you can experience the organizing power of OneNote right there. Starting today, you can download Microsoft OneNote Mobile for iPhone from the iTunes App Store, and it's free for a limited time. (Here's how to install it and get started.)

In case you haven't experienced the unsung hero of Office, OneNote is a digital notebook that lets you put everything you need to remember in one electronic place and then easily find it wherever you are. I use it every day. Think of it as a digital file cabinet for all the random bits of information that are too hard to keep track of in your head. According to comScore, 78 million PCs in the U.S. have OneNote - more than a third of all the PCs in the country.

OneNote Mobile for the iPhone lets you capture and review notes and lists on your phone. Notes are automatically backed up and synced with free Windows Live SkyDrive online storage, so that you can access them from virtually anywhere - your PC, phone, and browser. Collecting thoughts and ideas on the go is what OneNote was made for. 

People who use OneNote often wonder how they ever lived without it. It gets some of the highest customer satisfaction ratings of any app. For me, OneNote is where I collect and organize notes, ideas, links to websites and pictures. It can also capture handwriting, audio recordings and video clips. From my PC, the easy-to-search format means any of these tidbits of information are always at hand. Online or on my phone, my lists are always up to date and accessible for reference. Now iPhone users can have many of the same advantages as their Windows Phone counterparts.

We know people care more about what they do than where they do it. They expect technology to make that easier. They want familiarity and for things to just work. As new pieces of technology - new browsers, mobile hardware, smart phones and social networks - become bigger parts of their lives, they expect familiar technology, like Office, to help them access their ideas wherever they are. Today's release is another step in Office evolving to serve our 750 million customers worldwide. Whether it's on a PC or Mac, a mobile phone, or online through the Office Web Apps on multiple browsers, we continue to bring Office to the devices, platforms, and operating systems our customers are using. It should be about the ideas and information, not the device, right?

  • I am ready to love this app, but I have searched everywhere to figure out how to fix my problem. I see one of my notebooks just fine on my iPhone, but the second one, none of the pages I have entered will appear. Both are shared via the web and synched successfully (so it says) so not sure what's wrong, and the help section is pretty basic and doesn't address my issue. Also, are you able to delete pages on iPhone and if not, when?

    Thanks, I hope to switch over from Evernote if I can fix this problem.

  • I'm another long-time Onenote customer asking specifically for Onenote access and editing (via skynet) on the android platform.

  • I've been using evernote for everything but I think I'll have to give this a try now that we can use it on the iphone.

  • Revolutionary 2011 make money from mobile phones recurring product. 203$ within one sale. Fantastic Site Design with 5.27% conversions. Mobile Phone Marketing. The Future is Now.

  • If you know about mobile, you’ve heard about the android. On the android market you can whip up a theme for android phones in five minutes and put it on the Google app market for sale. This site shows you how to do this.

  • @AmandaL Consider this another request from a OneNote user who needs Android support.  I work in the IS department of a law firm that supports multiple tablet OSs.  Having OneNote only available on iOS is delaying our corporate adoption of OneNote.

  • This app needs to be ported onto android!!

  • Would i be able to ask when MS Onenote would be available on the Andriod phones, as the current options for andriod are horrendous. I was using onenote before when i had a win 7 phone but didn't realise that it was unavailable for andriod and would like to be able to use it once again.

    I look forward to when i can use onenote on andriod.
