Students cannot see Class Notebook using mobile app

Question

Hi, I am using Class Notebook for the first time this year. I have added my students to the Class Notebook and they have installed the OneNote app on this phones and logged in using their MS login. Unfortunately, they are not able to access the Class Notebook I have created and I am not sure why? One student said that she was able to only after she had signed in with OneNote using her laptop. Can anyone confirm if this is a necessary step?

Thanks

Spencer

Answer 1

Dear Qing

yes, thank you. My students have managed to open the Class Notebook by downloading OneDrive and selecting the 'shared' icon at the bottom of this phone screen (most have iPhones). It now displays the Class Notebook in OneNote and they can see all my class notes + submit homework.

Hi Spencer,

I would like to explain that OneNote only show recently notebooks. If you haven't opened it before, it will not appear on OneNote.

If you want to open the class notebook, you can try opening it from OneDrive.

1. Download OneDrive.
2. Select Shared.
3. Then you can find the class notebook, and open it.

If the issue still exists, could you please provide the following information?

1. The OS version and OneNote version.
2. The screenshot of OneDrive Shared folder.

Thanks,

Qing
