The best note-taking programs, like Evernote, sync your notes to all your other devices, so you have them wherever you go. If you have some OneNote 2016 notes that are stored locally on your computer, you can sync them to your other devices using OneDrive.
NOTE: There are two different versions of OneNote. The free version of OneNote that comes with Windows 10 automatically creates new notebooks in your OneDrive account, and automatically syncs existing notebooks with your OneDrive account by default.

Click the “File” tab.
On the backstage screen, click “Share” in the list of items on the left.
If you are not currently signed in to your OneDrive account through Office, you will see the screen allowing you to sign in. Click the “Sign in” button.
Enter your email address on the Add a service dialog box and click “Next”.
Then, enter your password on the Sign in screen and click “Sign in”.
Once you’re signed in to your OneDrive account, the following screen displays. You can either keep the current name of the notebook, or change the name in the Notebook Name box. To move the notebook to your OneDrive account, click “Move Notebook”.

To return to your notebook, click the back arrow in the upper-left corner of the OneNote window.
Now, when you make changes to this notebook, they will be saved online and you can access the notebook on all your devices, such as your laptop, tablet, and smartphone. OneNote is available for iOS and Android for free.
