Microsoft has launched OneNote for Mac and is now available for free from the App Store. Similar to the Windows version, OneNote for Mac includes ribbon interface for formatting and styling your notes. Notes with lists can be managed using multiple levels of bullets and numbering, quick shortcut keys, strikethrough, format and more. It is easy to insert and place pictures anywhere in your notes, table formatting options are also included. Other features include the familiar notebook experience, sharing and syncing.
Since the Mac version of OneNote is available for free, Microsoft has also made OneNote for Windows free. This means that the service is now available for free across PC, Mac, Windows Phone, iOS, Android, and the web. However, the premium features like SharePoint support, version history, and Outlook integration, will still be charged.
