Microsoft Office Mobile App for Android Now Available

 

Wazzup Pilipinas!

According to LA Times Microsoft it is bringing a pared-down version of its Office software to Android phones. The software giant has announced  that subscribers to Office 365 will be able to use a new Office Mobile app on their Android phones.

Just a heads-up: Only for Office 365 subscribers, and well, it's region-locked so you can't get it from the Play Store for now.

I've used it though and it's pretty good. Just on par with the Windows Phone version as one would expect from a phone version.


The new app is available immediately in the Google Play store (not in the Philippines yet though). And it comes just a few weeks after Microsoft released a similar app for iPhone users who subscribe to Office 365.


The Android app is free to download. But an Office 365 subscription costs $100 a year. For that fee, users can install Office apps on up to five devices such as PCs, Macs, and smartphones.
So far, Microsoft hasn't created an Office app for tablets.

  2. If I'm not mistaken, the best option is to choose the right knowledge. For example, coding is known as a high-level general-purpose programming language that uses an object-oriented approach. So I made a decision to hire software developers ukraine that help to develop a business, programm or application. For me, the choice of this knowledge was decisive in the development of my business and I am very grateful for it. I think it'll come in handy.
