Aug 10, 2020 Both OneNote and Sticky Notes are available on Android and iOS, but if you’re a Samsung Galaxy user, you don’t need to install the OneNote app on your smartphone. You can take notes on Samsung Notes and you’ll be able to instantly access them in OneNote, courtesy of Microsoft’s new ‘ Sync to Microsoft OneNote ‘ feature. Samsung Notes provides a smart, intuitive, versatile platform for capturing ideas and keeping meeting minutes. On the Galaxy Note20, the updated Samsung Note.

A new Galaxy Note wouldn't be complete without some new note-taking features. Today, Samsung unveiled a refreshed Notes app that will sync with Microsoft's infinitely more popular and powerful OneNote app. (According to The Verge, the sync only goes one way, so you won't get OneNote files inside the Samsung Notes app.) It should also play nice with Outlook, making it simpler to email a quick doodle or use a handwritten signature. Samsung's own Reminders app, meanwhile, will sync with Outlook, Microsoft To-Do (its replacement for Wunderlist) and its Slack competitor Microsoft Teams.
In addition, the new Samsung Notes app will let you capture scribbles and audio simultaneously. That means you can return to the note later, tap on something you've written and immediately jump to that point in the audio recording. We've seen this feature before in other note-taking applications such as Microsoft OneNote and Notability. Still, it should be a welcome addition for people who carry a Note phone and want a permanent record of their classes and meetings.
According to Samsung, the Notes app will straighten out your handwriting and keep everything organized in a new, simplified folder system. You'll also be able to annotate and highlight PDF files without downloading any extra software. All of these features will be available on the Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra smartphones, as well as Samsung's new Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ Android tablets.
Will they be enough to convert S-Pen sceptics? Or discourage them from buying an iPad, which is getting its own Pencil-centric upgrades in iPadOS 14? Maybe. The bigger challenge, I suspect, is getting S-Pen owners to use Samsung Notes as their primary note-taking app on a laptop or PC. Note syncing with Microsoft OneNote is a welcome addition, but suggests that Samsung is aware it can't compete with Evernote, Notion and other go-to apps on desktop.

If you don’t have another Samsung Galaxy phone, but do have a PC running Windows, you can go to the Microsoft store and check whether you can install the Samsung Notes app. You probably have no compatible issue if you’re using a Samsung laptop.
If you’re using a non Samsung laptop, you’ll probably get the “Samsung Notes isn’t compatible with your device” error message. But, the good news is that there’s a way to bypass this issue which I’ve learned from the us.community.samsung.com forum. Here’s how:
- On your PC, access the Microsoft store from a web browser and search for Samsung Notes.
- Instead of clicking Get, click the …(next to Get), and Add to cart. Then, complete the entire checkout process. (In case, you’re worried the app is FREE).
- Next, open the Microsoft Store app and search Samsung Notes. Now, you should see the Install button. If it’s clickable, click it to install. Else, you can click … (next to Install) and then followed by Install on my devices.
- You’ll probably be prompted to pick a device you want to install. Pick your PC and click Install now.
- Once it’s installed, you can launch it and sign in your Samsung account from its settings to have your notes synced to the PC.
