Review summary

OneNote Web Clipper is praised for its simplicity, speed, and usefulness in clipping web content for note-taking. Many users rely on it daily and find it superior to alternatives. However, recurring bugs such as flickering and sign-in issues affect usability, especially on personal Microsoft accounts, requiring frequent reinstallations. The extension tends to be stable on work or school accounts but less so on personal ones. Users also face minor limitations like inability to change default clip locations and disruptions after Edge updates. Overall, it remains valuable but buggy.
Pros
  • Easy to use and fast for clipping notes with customization options.
  • Very convenient and useful for saving web content into OneNote across devices.
  • Reliable and effective for note-taking and web clipping compared to other tools.
  • Supports capturing both text and images quickly with minimal clicks.
  • Works well most of the time, especially when logged into work/school accounts.
Cons
  • The extension frequently encounters bugs such as flickering or blinking windows.
  • Sign-in problems requiring users to reinstall to restore functionality.
  • Issues mainly occur when using personal Microsoft accounts, while work/school accounts are more stable.
  • Users must reinstall the extension after browser updates or when issues arise.
  • Cannot always change default notebook location for clipping, limiting customization.

2025-06-20 zh***** 非常好用的插件
2025-06-19 Ro***** Eigentlich ein perfektes Werkzeug, das ist seit Jahren genutzt habe. Nun aber funktioniert es schon seit Anfang 2025 nicht mehr in Edge auf Windows 11: Es muss jeden Tag gelöscht und wieder hinzugefügt werden. Scheint ein Anmeldungsproblem zu sein. Damit wird diese Erweiterung beinahe unbrauchbar. Ich muss darum auf Edge auf Android ausweichen; dort funktioniert die Weiterleitung an OneNote aus Edge weiterhin.
2025-06-13 Fa***** super !

2025-06-12 Ch***** Extension doesn't work. It seems to be a sign in problem. I have to remove the extension and add it again to trigger the sign-in process. After sign-in the extension works for some time. The problem exists in Edge, Chrome and Firefox.
2025-06-09 Tr***** Great when it works, but EXTREMELY buggy.
2025-06-09 Mo***** お出かけの時はweb 検索してOneNoteにメモ的に貼り付けができて便利です。またテキストを追加しておくと数年後の検索でもヒット率が良くさらに使用時間に比例して(ラベルテキストが累積するので)便利になります。

2025-06-08 Gr***** For years, I have used this all the time, but for the last few months, the OneNote Web Clipper has stopped working. I have to remove it as an extension and reinstall it; then it works for a day or two, but eventually it stops working again. I then have to remove and reinstall again. Please help and correct this problem.
2025-06-06 Je***** This extension is one that I actually rely on & consistently have used for notetaking over many years. Extremely easy to use & fast while also providing different options to customize how you want to transfer the data (text/images) from the webpage. That being said, I agree whole-heartedly with the annoying bug/errors encountered by many other reviewers below (May 2025). I only experience the issue when using it while logged into my personal Microsoft acct. It remains functional & working (almost) all the time when logged into my Work/School acct. I use it both in Edge for Windows 11 & 10 on different computers every day. The latest update here seems to coincide with this flickering issue... It would be nice to not have to switch accts just to use it! It's quite annoying having to switch accts & re-open page when I want to clip something... PLS FIX & you may get 5 stars! I cannot seem to change Default notebook clipping location either, but that's not major issue.
