Microsoft rather suddenly and unexpectedly launched its office suite Office in the iPhone version in the App Store. The mobile version of Office can be downloaded for free, but so far only in the US section of the App Store and, moreover, only for subscribers to the "Office 365" program.

Official App Description:

Microsoft Office Mobile is Microsoft's official office suite, optimized for the iPhone. It enables access, viewing and editing of Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft PowerPoint documents anywhere and from anywhere.

Thanks to the support of advanced features including graphs, animations, SmartArt graphics, and geometric shapes, documents created on the iPhone look practically identical to the desktop version of this office software.

Key Features:

  • Cloud - you can use your phone to access Office documents stored using SkyDrive, SkyDrive Pro or SharePoint web storage.
  • Recent documents - Office Mobile works with cloud storage - documents that were last viewed on the computer are also displayed on the phone in the appropriate panel.
  • E-mail attachments – it is possible to view and edit documents that are attached to e-mails.
  • Great looking documents - documents such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint look really great thanks to support for graphs, animations, SmartArt graphics and geometric shapes.
  • Optimized for the phone - all documents are adapted to the small screen of the phone.
  • Resume function – when opening a Word document from SkyDrive or SkyDrive Pro, the position at which the user finished reading or editing on another device (PC/tablet) is automatically loaded.
  • Preview option for presentations.
  • Editing – the ability to quickly edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents.
  • Formatting preservation – When editing a document on iOS, the format of the content remains unchanged.
  • Offline editing - no constant internet connection required. Changes made to documents stored in the cloud will be reflected immediately after the next connection to the network.
  • Creation - it is possible to create Word and Excel documents directly on the phone.
  • Comments - you can view comments on the document created on the PC and create new ones directly on the phone.
  • Sharing – the ability to send documents by email or save them to SkyDrive and SharePoint.
