Microsoft today made three major OneNote announcements. The company launched OneNote for Android Wear and a Share extension for iOS 8, as well as updated Office Lens for Windows Phone.
Android Wear
The Android Wear news is arguably the biggest, as it is the debut of the first OneNote smartwatch app. If you own an Android smartwatch, you can now capture notes by simply saying “OK Google, take a note.”
To get started, you just have to download the free OneNote for Android Wear app from Google Play. Then just start dictating notes to your wrist.
In addition to a compatible watch, OneNote for Android Wear requires an Android phone running Android 4.3 or higher.
iOS 8
The new OneNote extension lets you clip the Web, save photos and send file attachments straight to OneNote without leaving the current app. Here it is in action:
The OneNote Share extension requires an iPhone or iPad running iOS 8, so if you’ll have to wait if you don’t have Apple’s latest mobile operating system version. It’s also worth noting that you have to be signed into OneNote with your Microsoft account on your iOS device.
The extension comes in the latest release of OneNote for iPad and OneNote for iPhone. Microsoft is expecting the new version to trickle out into Apple’s App Store later in the day.
Windows Phone
The Windows Phone update is strictly for Office Lens, which lets you use your phone’s camera to take pictures and send them directly to OneNote. Today’s update lets you do even more with your scanned photos, including the ability to save them as a Word or PowerPoint file.
