Let\u2019s find out who wins here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OneNote<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Microsoft\u2019s note-taking app brings your organization game to a new level. Separate notebooks, sections, and pages can help you create a powerful workbook.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This app is also a cross-platform asset, allowing you to continue your experience on iOS, Android, and Windows devices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But it seems the app\u2019s user experience could use some improvement. You can easily get lost in its forest of features if you\u2019re new to the Microsoft ecosystem. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img alt=\"onenote calculator example\" class=\"wp-image-39879\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"612\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 355px) 100vw, 355px\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/onenote-calculator-example.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/onenote-calculator-example.png 355w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/onenote-calculator-example-174x300.png 174w\" width=\"355\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/onenote\/digital-note-taking-app\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">OneNote<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Notability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Notability\u2019s intuitive layout with powerful sketching tools is what attracts most people to this app. <\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s an entire audience of digital note-takers who can\u2019t access this app because it\u2019s offered through Apple\u2019s App Store only. If you\u2019re interested in Notability as a team collaboration tool, you\u2019ll have to ensure they\u2019re Apple users to download this app. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"16-onenote-vs-notability-key-writing-and-editing-tools\">OneNote vs. Notability: Key writing and editing tools<\/h3>\n<p>Uninterrupted writing keeps the ideas flowing. Here\u2019s how the two giants rival each other.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OneNote<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You might not enjoy seamless control over the OneNote eraser. That makes erasing a clumsy affair. <\/p>\n<p>But the app makes up for this limitation by having a brilliant and smooth highlighter. You don\u2019t contend with messy shades.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>OneNote also comes with an extra finger for your writing and drawing tasks. We\u2019re talking about stylus support.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It also has an OCR functionality that turns your handwriting into text. However, the handwriting isn\u2019t as robust and clear as Notability\u2019s, despite the latest update.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Notability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the eraser, Notability leaves OneNote in the dust. You can change its size and erase your text by pixel, ensuring your work isn\u2019t a mess.<\/p>\n<p>But the highlighter is another story. The overlaps can leave an ugly mark and discourage you from reading your notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Regarding stylus support, it\u2019s a tie here.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>How about handwriting and OCR? Notability takes home the trophy again. You\u2019ll love revisiting your gracefully handwritten notes in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img alt=\"notability for apple devices\" class=\"wp-image-43269\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"605\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 487px) 100vw, 487px\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-1125x1400.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-1125x1400.png 1125w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-241x300.png 241w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-768x956.png 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-1234x1536.png 1234w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-1646x2048.png 1646w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example-700x871.png 700w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/notability-notes-example.png 1662w\" width=\"487\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">via <a href=\"https:\/\/notability.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Notability<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"17-onenote-vs-notability-on-reddit\">OneNote vs Notability on Reddit<\/h3>\n<p>We took to Reddit to see where people land on the OneNote vs Notability debate.
