Android and iOS Won't See Microsoft Office until October 2014 Says Microsoft. Other office productivity apps are here and will have time to improve and gather customers until that time or will consumers purchase a Windows 8 tablet so they can use Office 2013? Only time will tell. Let's take a look at what is out there now. Unless otherwise noted an app will include a replacement word processor, spreadsheet and presentation app.
I've found quite a list of Office type apps but I have not tried them all. The purpose of this article was to put together a list to save all of you some time. Closing the one for you can be very personal. Many will only look at Free while others will be willing to pay since they might spend more time with the app. S far I am using Quick Office HD even though it will connect with Microsoft's SkyDrive cloud service.
Microsoft OneNote, a note taking tool that synchronizes via the web like Evernote, is part of Microsoft Office and there is an iOS and Android version right now. Not so for Word, Excel or PowerPoint and Microsoft now says Office for iOS and Android to be available October 2014. What does one do in the mean time? Wait or try something else until then.
