You can now download the new Office application for Android in the Google Play Store

It was November 2019 when we saw how Microsoft began to test its new Office application for Android and iOS. An app that serves as a link for all the applications that make up Office and that until now was only accessible in beta form on the Google Play Store for Android or making use of TestFlight if we opted for iOS.

And it's now, in February 2020, when Office on the Google Play Store for Android users leaves the pre-invite phase. The container app to access all Microsoft office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook...) in one it can now be downloaded by anyone who is interested in trying it

Available on Google Play Store

The advantage of this app is that all the Office tools are combined in a single one We don't have to download Word, Excel and PowerPoint, to name the three most popular. Now they are available in a single download that saves us time and storage space.

The application that can be downloaded from this link allows you to carry out all the functions we already know Create and edit documents, upload them to the cloud or save them locally, share work, create PDF files from photos or Office documents, take notes thanks to the integration of Sticky Notes... in short, an app that seeks to facilitate productivity.

What is striking is that in this sense, Office for Android is not yet optimized for tablets, although Microsoft is working on making it available this improvement, perhaps at the same time that the iOS version arrives in the App Store.

Remember that, in this sense, you can try Office for iOS through the Beta program and the TestFlihgt app at this link, if well the test quota is full at the time of writing this article.

Right now, Office applications can be downloaded in a single utility or separately, as we have done so far. What is not clear, and this is confirmed by Android Police after contacting Microsoft, is whether the individual applications of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook... will end up disappearing from the application stores.
