Predictive text in OneNote: how Lightkey works in your notebooks
Yes, Lightkey works in OneNote. As you take notes in a meeting, a class or a project notebook, Lightkey predicts your next words in grey right where you're typing. Press Tab to accept, or keep typing. It also suggests spelling corrections as you go.
How it works
Install the Lightkey desktop app and open OneNote. Predictions appear on any page you type on, with nothing to set up in OneNote.
Lightkey works in the OneNote app on Windows. In OneNote on the web, use the Lightkey extension for Chrome or Edge, which works together with the Lightkey desktop app.
What it helps you write in OneNote
Notes repeat more than you'd think: the same headings, the same follow-ups, the same names. Lightkey learns yours, for example:
“Action items from today's meeting:”
“Follow up with the client by Friday.”
“Decision: go ahead with option B.”
“Open questions for next week's review”
When you're taking notes live, every word you don't have to type is attention you can keep on the conversation.
Private by design
Lightkey's prediction engine runs on your own computer. What you type isn't sent to a cloud service to get a prediction, and Lightkey keeps working offline. Your notes stay on your device.
