I do not like that the typing area is 'free form', meaning you can click anywhere on the page and it will start a new text box. I would like it to be a 'form' style like Microsoft word where all the text is ...

"OneNote is the best note-taking app in the market"

What do you like best about Microsoft OneNote? I like OneNote for what it offers. Every time I use this software, I know my information will be safe, since it gets safe automatically. It also syncs across my Microsoft apps in all my devices. I also noticed that this software works great with iOS and Android, that's very important for me, because our clients need to be able to open or share the documents we share in our cloud. I also love the fact it's free!, I use OneNote for my ...
