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.
