OneNote 2016 will stop receiving updates: OneNote for Office 2019 will inherit its features
OneNote is one of Microsoft's star applications One of the references when talking about productivity on the go one of the applications Indispensable in this sense is OneNote, the Microsoft app to keep our agenda and our daily chores up to date.
But the passage of time forces the application to be updated to continue satisfying the needs of users. That's what Microsoft has decided with OneNote 2016, the version that comes with Office 365, which will stop receiving new features along with security updates.They will instead opt for the Universal version of OneNote for Windows 10.
William Devereux, OneNote Program Manager, was in charge of announcing this measure. No more security or bug fixes will be released as the team's priority is to focus on the Universal version of OneNote for Windows 10 that will come bundled with Office 2019.
It is the only news that we could classify as gray for OneNote users and that is that with Office 2019 there will be great improvements First of all OneNote will be faster synchronizing all the data that we add, so much so that it will be reflected in real time without having a time interval in between.
But it's not the only change we'll see with OneNote in this releaseAnd it is that OneNote will allow you to see a preview of the Office files directly without having to use another tool. It also allows the collaborative work of several people on the same document simultaneously.
The new version of OneNote will be more powerful as all OneNote features in Office 2016 will be ported to the new version. These are the improvements we will see:
- The option to insert and search tags has been added.
- The new version inherits the tags from Office 2016.
- Option to create, insert and customize labels.
- Real-time synchronization.
- Synchronization between devices.
- Improvements in group work when showing labels created by other users in shared notebooks.
