This app became such a burden of a learning curve just to be able to use the stylus to scribble notes. Why devs? How is that ever practical? If not many people are using their stylus, so what? It should've been left alone, if it's not broken, don't fix it! The widget has no options to use the stylus to write down information. I would have to open then close the note and go to the bottom to choose the stylus option and then it will open a new note. This is ridiculous.

OneNote mobile has improved much over the years. Problems syncing is still an issue, but not as frequent. Also there are some features I don't find helpful. 1) Not having a choice to open to your notebook list rather than recents. I can count on one hand the number of times I've used the recents page. 2) Moving pages takes you out of the notebook you're in to the notebook you've moved the page; this is only annoying because in mobile you can only move 1 page at a time.

(10-30-2021) Can't find Sticky Notes. Installed Launcher and can only access them through that. Tried to update OneNote. It's current. Logged out and back in. Still does not show sticky notes as an option when I open the app from Android page. Works fine on my phone. Refuses to work on my tablet. (7-16-2022) uninstalled and reinstalled. Same problem. Running Android 10 on the tablet. It should work but isn't. Is syncing again on Windows and my phone. UPDATE: 3 years later and it's still the same
