Today in San Francisco, we made some exciting announcements about our company\u2019s mobile first, cloud first approach. Office played a big part in today\u2019s news. Over a billion people on the planet use Microsoft Office to get more done at work and at home. Every day we hear from you how important it is to have a great productivity experience on all the devices you use. We take that very seriously \u2013 we know that means you want the authentic experience of Office, made right for the device you\u2019re using. Whether you\u2019re creating an Excel spreadsheet<\/a> on your tablet, authoring a Word document<\/a> in the browser or making edits to a PowerPoint<\/a> on your phone, you want the great Office experience you love, everywhere you are. Today, we unveiled Office for iPad\u00ae \u2013 specifically Word, PowerPoint and Excel. But this isn\u2019t simply Office on another device. We thought a lot about what people want to do when they\u2019re on their tablet, iPad functionality, and touch-first when we were building Office for iPad. We reimagined Office on the iPad, while retaining what people love about Office. We hope you\u2019ll be as pleased with the results as we are. In the future, we will bring Office apps to the Windows Store and other popular platforms. In addition to Office for iPad, we\u2019ve gone a step further in our mobile first and cloud first approach, and like Windows Phone, we\u2019ve now made Office Mobile for iPhone and Android phones available for free. You can read more about how we\u2019re expanding Office across devices below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We know you\u2019ve been wanting it, and starting today, you can download Word, Excel and PowerPoint for iPad from the App Store<\/a>. The apps have the robust capabilities and familiar look and feel that is unmistakably Office, while offering a fantastic touch experience built from the ground up for iPad. With the free versions of the apps, you can read your Word documents, view your Excel data and present with PowerPoint. Your documents will look as good as they do on your PC and Mac\u00ae, and better than ever on your iPad. With an Office 365 subscription, you can edit and create new documents with the iPad. When you edit a document, you can be sure that content and formatting will be maintained across Office on PC, Mac, tablet and phone. And, you always have access to your up-to-date documents in OneDrive and OneDrive for Business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your Office 365 subscription not only gets you the Office for iPad apps installed on up to 5 tablets, but also 5 copies across Office for your PCs and Macs. With one subscription all of your devices are covered, so you can work the way you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just like Office Mobile for Windows Phone, we are making Office Mobile for iPhone and Android phones free for everyone.With Office Mobile, you have the ability to view and edit your Office content on the go. Office Mobile is available in the App Store<\/a> and Google Play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Office documents look better than ever on iPad.<\/strong> They look just as they do on your PC or Mac. In Word, images, tables, SmartArt, footnotes, equations are all there, perfectly formatted. Formulas, charts, sparklines, conditional formatting, and filters in Excel help you make better decisions. PowerPoint presentations pack a punch with transitions, animations, speaker notes and much more. When presenting, you can even use a built-in laser pointer, pens and highlighters to get your point across.<\/p>\n\n\n\nOffice for iPad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
