    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.

    Whenever I try to use the android app: *open app; see that the contents of my notes are out of date; wait several minutes; nothing happens; search around in vain for a manual sync; open and close app completely several times; give up*. Seriously, what's the point of keeping my notes on the cloud if the app literally never syncs? EDIT: years later came back to give a 1 star review for having to hard-close the app every couple minutes to reset its behavior. Totally inconsistent.

    I have hundreds and hundreds of notes. All of the sudden, they stopped syncing. I checked my OneDrive account and they're gone. All of them. What's really weird is that the one notebook I deleted is still there. Everything else has just vanished. Doesn't work at all with DEX. Lack of ability to alphabetize is ridiculous. Going to try ZoHo Notebook or Evernote, but one way or another I'm done with this app.
