At its Ignite 2019 conference in Orlando, Florida, Microsoft unveiled a new ‘Office’ mobile app that combines its Word, Excel and PowerPoint software into a single, all-in-one productivity suite. The company has offered separate Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps on Android and iOS for years, but the new software combines all three into one single piece of software, just like on Windows and Mac.
In an official blog post announcing the new app, Microsoft said: “The new Office mobile app represents our vision for what a productivity solution would look like if first built for mobile devices … (It) provides a simple, integrated experience that puts the tools you need for working on a mobile device at the forefront of the experience… Whether using it for personal or professional reasons, Office is designed to be your go-to app for getting work done on a mobile device”.
