OneNote App or desktop Continued

Iron Contributor

Last August I started this conversation about whether the App (Not the Office desktop version) will be getting new features first:

I've been looking at the latest development here:

And saw that you can now lock a page after marking it (the number 1 requested feature). The screenshot is of the App. 

I downloaded the latest classnotebook add-in and the lock page feature isn't there. 

Many teachers don't use the online version, and we've recommended that they don't.  We also stopped using the App as it was causing problems, and so for us, the Office Desktop Onenote is our default product. So, as I suspected in August, we should now be using the App or Online versions to make use of these new features.

Am I right?

Well, thanks for the heads-up anyway. I didn't realize that the modern app has Class Notebook tools. It is a bit hidden under Settings>Options>Class Notebook tools, where one has to turn it on. I had to look around for it and at first thought that something extra had to be installed.

 

I interchange between the two, OneNote Desktop and OneNote Win 10 app - depending on what I'm doing. I absolutely love the Win 10 app as an Interactive Whiteboard replacement.
