You can simply use them interchangeably when you want to say &quot;xxx not at all&quot;.</p>
<p>e.g.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>我一点都不记得。<br />
我一点也不记得。<br />
I don't remember at all.</p>
</blockquote>

The only difference might be colloquial vs. literary. In Cantonese, 都 is more colloquial than 也. It may be different in Mandarin. For example,  我一啲印象都冇(colloquial Cantonese); 我一點印象也沒有(Standard Written Chinese/ Mandarin)
