Footnotes is supposed to allow the use of [fn]square brackets[/fn] and <fn>angle brackets</fn> shortcodes.
On my testing site, I can use square brackets without any issue. When I use angle brackets, the shortcode isn't be displayed, instead of a footnote I see the shortcode on the page. When I edit the page and switch the editor to Source code, I see that the angle bracket short code is converted to something like <fn>My footnote text.</fn>.
First I thought it was an issue with the ordering of filters in the text format configuration. From Drupal I know, that Footnotes was designed so that it should run before HTML filter, and that's the case on my testing site. I've no idea at the moment why the angle brackets don't work.
Update: The angle brackets syntax works generally, but it does not work when CKEditor is enabled in the text format configuration. Using CKEditor is a very common use case though, so we should try to fix the issue anyway.
