The new OneNote features are interesting, but I’m glad I saved a backup of the app, because I did not like these things one bit:
* no offline access anymore
* 50 times as big as the previous version
(This new version 2.0 is 250 MB, the prior 1.3 was 5 MB)
——
Also Outline+ is free for a day. Coincidence? It’s been free once according to appshopper, so I’m guessing it may be free again but it could be a while (in other words, now is your chance to save $15!)

I do feel sorry for the guys behind Outline+, which is a very good app. But I didn’t realise OneNote no longer supports offline! That’s a blow - I’ll have to check it out. Could be a boon for Outline+, of course…
And yes, it is enormous.
The Android version is nowhere near as impressive as the iOS version, either - no tablet-optimised interface, for starters.

Cheers for the tip-off! Needed something like this…

Thanks for the tip on the offline access no longer being supported by OneNote for iPad 2.0. This is a complete deal-breaker for me. I only have wifi on my devices, and that’s not always dependable. Frankly, can anyone always rely on having online access all the time?
I did download the beast, and it took a long time to install. But I do like the interface. Nevertheless it is going to be uninstalled first thing this morning.
