I have installed Microsoft Onenote application on my Windows 10 laptop and my Android phone. During my usage of this app, I have noticed that there are many features which are present in Laptop version of Onenote but absent in Android phone version.

Why is it happening and how can I get full access to all the features on the Android version of Microsoft Onenote?

    The reduced funktionality of the OneNote version on especially Android has nothing to do with the underlying OS, it's a marketing decision you have to live with 😋

    Hi Rishi Pradhan,

    OneNote files are not compatible with other apps, they cannot be opened in another app on your Android phone

    Then, What are the alternative applications that I can use on my Android phone to get the same features as I get in the Laptop version of Microsoft Onenote???

    Hi Rishi Pradhan,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    The Android and iOS app versions of OneNote have reduced functionality, because the underlying operating system does not have the infrastructure to support all the functionality, this is the same as the Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps on Android iOS

    Have you tried the OneNote online free version in a web browser, to see if that is any better?
