OneNote for Android - rollback update?

Anonymous

Using a Samsung Galaxy Tab A with stylus. Was working perfectly fine for note taking before last update (except for sync issues). Since last update (2018-02-06), totally broken, barely usable. Several problems have appeared:

  • While taking notes with the stylus, stops writing unexpectedly (stylus stops making marks).
  • When panning through the page, parts of the text remains frozen on the screen while other areas scrolls correctly, effectively breaking the page structure.
  • Trying to pan with the finger when using the stylus, sometimes the finger starts unexpectedly to act like a pen, making marks all over the place instead of scrolling.

I want to rollback to the previous version, which was working fine, but there don't seem to be a way of doing that... Was using this app all day long before, now I can no longer use it anymore :( 

Any way I could rollback this update?

    The newer Onenote for Android certainly has problems, so you did a good thing rolling back.

    Additionally, you should turn off auto updates from the play store, if you have not done so.
