Microsoft has just announced the immediate availability of the new Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps for Android phones. These join their previously released Office apps for Android tablets. All three applications are made for work-on-the-go users and can be used on devices with a screen size of 10.1 inches or smaller.

Android users will find that the free Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps provide the familiar look, feel and quality of Office with an intuitive touch experience designed especially for Android phones and tablets.

Users will enjoy the familiar Office navigation and menu options in the ribbon and all the familiar features such as Images and charts, PowerPoint animations and transitions, Word footnotes, formulas and tables and Excel formulas, tables, charts and Sparklines.  While the apps are free to download, like all other devices,  you’ll need an Office 365 subscription to experience and use all the full Office features.

The apps are currently available for free download at the following links:

  • Word for Android
  • Excel for Android
  • PowerPoint for Android
