At last year's Ignite conference, Microsoft unveiled a new Office app for mobile devices featuring Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, alongside other functionalities such as document scanning, file sharing, and more. The app was introduced to the public at that time and now, it's available on both Android and iOS platforms.
Microsoft releases unified Office for Android, iPhone integrating Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

This announcement is likely particularly good news for iOS users, as the app's preview version quickly reached the 10,000 download limit due to Apple's TestFlight program deployment. The app will also include some features not available when the initial preview version was launched, such as dark mode on iOS and templates for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files.
In addition, Microsoft has announced three exciting new features set to debut later this spring. Firstly, there's the spell check feature in Word, allowing you to use your voice to input documents. Secondly, the Cards view mode for Excel, designed to facilitate easier data viewing on spreadsheets without the need for horizontal scrolling through columns. Lastly, there's the Outline feature in PowerPoint, enabling users to create presentations by providing PowerPoint with content in a general outline format, which the application then converts into a presentation tailored to style, format, and icons.
Microsoft still plans to keep Word, Excel, and PowerPoint as standalone apps available for those who only use individual versions, but this integrated app clearly where most features focused on new mobile devices will appear in the future.
