Microsoft Finally Rolls-Out A Full-Fledged Office App For iPad Users

A newly fully-functional Microsoft Office app is now available for iPad users. This app isn’t free – it’s part of Microsoft’s Office subscription program(s).
 
The least expensive option for acquiring functionality from this newly updated Microsoft Office app is approximately $6.99 per month (approximately INR 509). If you’re looking for an app that’s different from the iPhone version of the app, don’t – It’s listed under the same title.
 
Microsoft will likely transition the various individual apps for iPad and iPhone out of circulation entirely. If you’re currently using Excel or PowerPoint in an app separate from that of Office, now might be a good time to make your own transition to the unified, singular Office app.
 
The new iPad app also does have a couple of additional tools for mobile work, including a way to quickly create and sign PDFs (with an Apple Pencil, if you choose). Another highlighted feature is the ability to turn pictures into editable Word or Excel files.
 
The newly updated iPad-compatible listing in the Apple App Store suggests that the iPadOS-optimized app is ready to roll with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint functionality. This app has the ability to create new “Notes” for Office documents, and has its own built-in camera system (Lens).
 
This app should allow users to easily work on the same documents between devices, as well. Cloud connectivity allows sharing and collaboration between different sorts of devices – iPhone, iPad, Mac, PC, and so forth – with aplomb.
 
The Microsoft Office App in the App Store. If you’re having trouble signing in, heed the following bit of the app listing: “To create or edit documents, sign in with a free Microsoft account on devices with a screen size smaller than 10.1 inches.” You’ll apparently need to have a tiny screen if you want to… start your experience.
