Microsoft was a bit late in providing official support for Office files via its Office apps for mobile devices. Even before Microsoft began providing official PowerPoint, Word and Excel apps for Office on mobile devices, there were a plethora of apps available for both Android and iOS which provided support for Office files on Android, iPhone and iPad devices. However, Microsoft is now making amends and has launched a single app for Android and iOS which combines PowerPoint, Word and Excel.
Microsoft Office: Word, Excel, PowerPoint & More
While Microsoft has launched a splendid app, they certainly could have named it something more creative than merely โMicrosoft Officeโ. Perhaps they were looking to capitalize on the keyword or just lacked imagination. Either way, Microsoft Office is the name of the unified app launched by Microsoft in February 2020.
Supported Features
The app provides support for PowerPoint, Word, Excel, PDF documents and even enables scanning QR codes, taking notes and provides support for easy transfer of your documents between your computer and smartphone.
Real-Time Collaboration, Notes & Support for Signing PDFs
With his app you can create, edit, and collaborate in real-time on Office documents. Needless to say, the app comes with OneDrive support for fetching and saving documents, as well as support for SharePoint. You can also digitally sign PDF documents via your finger.
