Microsoft Office

Just over a month after Microsoft updated the preview version of Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint to support Android handsets, it has released the final version of the apps on the Google Play Store for all.

Microsoft’s offering is easily the best among the office suites available on the Google Play Store. All the apps are well built and feature integration with cloud services like Dropbox and OneDrive for storing, as well as editing files stored on them. The apps have been optimised for the small screens and allow you to make basic edits to files for free.

The apps, however, are not as feature filled as the tablet version. Nonetheless, it is great to see Microsoft finally releasing its new office suite for all Android devices running KitKat or higher.

Will you be switching over to Microsoft’s Office suite on your Android smartphone or continue to stick to your existing office suite app?
