Microsoft released a Mac version of its cloud-based note taking platform OneNote, Monday.
The company also announced it would be offering both Mac and Windows versions of the software to users for free.
Previously, the full Windows version of the app was only available to users who paid for the full Office Productivity suite of software, though mobile and web versions were already free.
"It’s designed for personal and school use, it’s totally ad-free and there’s no limit on how long you can use it because it’s not just a trial," Microsoft said in a blog post detailing the news. "Everything you create in the free PC and Mac clients are synced to OneDrive, so you can access them from your phone and tablet too."
Outlook integration, SharePoint support and other premium features will still only be available to paid subscribers.
The Mac app is the first time a native version of OneNote has been offered to Mac users, who were previously limited to the web version of the app.
Microsoft also announced it was launching a cloud API that will add support for other Microsoft apps and apps from third-party developers, including Brother, Doxie Go, Epson, Feedly, Genius Scan, IFTTT, JotNot, Livescribe, Mod Notebook, News360 and Weave.
The OneNote team will also be conducting a webinar, Twitter Q & A and a Reddit AMA later this week to answer questions from users and discuss the new features.
