From The best version of OneNote on Windows - Microsoft Tech Community - 183974:
QuoteBeginning with the release of Office 2019, OneNote for Windows 10 will be the default OneNote experience for Office 365 and Office 2019. By focusing our efforts on a single Windows app, we'll be able to bring you the very best experience and reduce any confusion about which app to use.

QuoteWhat's happening to OneNote 2016?

While we're no longer adding new features to OneNote 2016, it'll still be there if you need it. OneNote 2016 is optionally available for anyone with Office 365 or Office 2019, but it will no longer be installed by default. If you currently use OneNote 2016, you won't notice any changes when you update to Office 2019. We'll continue to offer support, bug fixes, and security updates for OneNote 2016 for the duration of the Office 2016 support lifecycle, which runs through October 2020 for mainstream support and October 2025 for extended support. In other words, you'll still receive critical fixes—but not new features—for at least the next two years. For more details, please refer to this FAQ.

There is much, much more information in the referenced article especially about the "Top-requested features coming soon to OneNote for Windows 10".

From Tips for searching notes - Office Support:
Quote
For better results when searching notes, consider the following tips:
  • Use uppercase and lowercase letters interchangeably    Searching in OneNote is not case sensitive. For example, if you type "Monday", OneNote finds all notes that contain both "Monday" and "monday".
  • Use only the first few letters of a word to expand your search results    When you type the first few letters of a word, OneNote finds any words that contain those letters. For example, if you type "Tim" and you have notes that include the word "time", OneNote finds all notes containing both "Tim" and "time".
  • Use "audio recording started" or "video recording started" to find audio or video notes    When you record audio or video notes, OneNote automatically inserts the text "Audio recording started" or "Video recording started," depending on the type of recording. To search for audio notes, type audio recording started. To search for video notes, type video recording started.

OneNote on Windows will get a series of updates over the next 12 months. The updates include a visual refresh, the latest Microsoft pen and ink advancements, a new navigational UI layout option that can flex for customer preferences, and more!  The objective of the changes is to unify the OneNote app installed with Office and the OneNote for Windows 10 app available in the Microsoft Store.  The end result will be a single OneNote app on Windows with the ability to use the interface and features you're familiar with.

See What's Coming to OneNote for additional information.

New Layout Options for OneNote on Windows are coming soon

QuoteThe #1 request we've heard from educators and schools looking to move to the OneNote on  Windows (Desktop) version is an option to allow the user interface to look similar to the OneNote for Windows 10 version of OneNote, with pages, sections and notebooks aligned on the left-hand side, and the horizontal tabs to disappear. We've heard that many students also prefer this layout option to help simplify navigation, while making OneNote "look the same" on multiple platforms like OneNote web, Mac and iPad.

When this change comes about in 2023, switching to vertical tabs in OneNote on Windows will be easy: Click the View Tab -> Tabs Layout > Select Vertical Tabs.  With that change, your Notebooks and pages will now appear on the left.

Note: This feature will only be available for OneNote on Windows and it is not available for OneNote for Windows 10.

A demonstration of this new option is available in the referenced article.

From What's New and What's Coming to OneNote on Windows.

Enhanced Text Pen and Ink Gestures
With the enhanced text pen and inking gestures, you can do more with your digital pen (or stylus) on OneNote on Windows. With the text pen selected from the Draw tab, you can convert your handwriting to text as you write and edit your converted notes with natural gestures, such as selecting text with a strikethrough, deleting text by scribbling over it, and more. Learn more about the new text pen and available ink gestures in

We've also added tools to help you better annotate, take handwritten notes, and draw. This includes an all new Draw tab, improved ink reliability, and a quick shortcut to get help specifically built for ink!

(If you don't have a digital pen enabled device and have a touch device instead, or already have handwritten notes that you'd like to convert, select your handwritten notes through Draw > Lasso Select and choose Ink to Text on the ribbon to convert your handwritten notes to text. More information in this article).

Faster Notetaking with Text Prediction
Following Outlook and Word, inline text predictions are now available in OneNote on Windows. Text Prediction in OneNote lets you capture your notes faster by completing the current word and anticipating the next word or phrase of your sentence based on the context that you're typing in. These predictions appear in real-time as inline ghost text and are inserted on pressing Tab or the Right-arrow key.

New Layout Options
For those who love the left-sided layout on OneNote for the web, OneNote for Mac, and OneNote for iPad, you'll be thrilled to hear that we've brought this experience to the OneNote on Windows app! Using the new Vertical Tabs layout option under the View menu, you can use a navigation experience similar to other Microsoft 365 apps and services, such as Outlook and Teams.

Supercharge Productivity with OneNote Copilot
In line with our recent announcements on Copilot availability, Microsoft 365 Copilot is coming to OneNote on Windows starting in November. Copilot in OneNote helps you create, capture, organize, and recall information with confidence. As your AI-powered notetaking partner, Copilot uses your prompts to draft plans, summarize your notes, generate ideas, create lists, organize information, and more. Learn more and explore what's possible with Microsoft 365 Copilot from our official blog and support site.

Preview Stream Videos Inline
Starting soon, you can directly preview Stream videos (on SharePoint) within OneNote without needing to switch to another application. This seamless integration allows you to stay focused on your notes and maintain your productivity without any interruptions. This also adds Stream (on SharePoint) to the list of links that can be enriched by an inline preview. Learn more about embedding content on OneNote and supported links from our support article

Note: These updates are only for the OneNote app, not the OneNote for Windows 10 app. If you're still using the OneNote for Windows 10 app, it is recommended that you switch to the OneNote app as soon as possible. The latest OneNote Windows app is available as part of Microsoft 365, it may already be included as part of Microsoft 365 on new Windows 11 devices and can also be downloaded as a free standalone version from the Microsoft Store.
