MicrosoftOneNote has been around for a couple of decades. However, Microsoft has been offering two versions — Office 365 and UWA — of its popular note-taking service in the last few years. The Office 365 version works just like the previous versions, and a UWA (Universal Windows App) client is available from the Microsoft Store.
OneNote has been entirely free to use unlike other apps from Microsoft Office suite. In a recent push of native Windows apps, the company shut down the desktop version of OneNote, and is now focusing on the UWA version.
Microsoft is slowly adding OneNote desktop features to its UWA counterpart. While they have done a pretty good job, the company still hasn’t carried over all the keyboard shortcuts to the new app.
Now that doesn’t mean, we are out of options. The service does offer some compelling keyboard shortcuts. And in this post, I will cover the top essential shortcuts for OneNote on Windows and macOS platforms.

Instead, I will walk you through the most important ones that help you get the job done.
