The reason for this is not apparent, although it seemed to be linked to the device location I tried to upload them from. Firstly, not all pictures can be uploaded. The fact that there aren't as many options and menus will please many users who struggle to find the feature they want in the increasingly feature-heavy desktop version and prefer to stay with the drop-down menus in pre-Office 2007 versions.

If you're already familiar with Word (Office 2007 and onwards) then the ribbon interface will be very recognizable and you'll be able to easily flick between menus in the slick interface without problems. This is the biggest omission in this beta version, but there is also no option to export as PDF, no find and replace feature, and spell check wasn't supported on my device (Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0). One really important feature that is missing at the moment is the ability to collaborate with others on the same document - something that is included in Google Docs. Documents can then also be saved in the cloud again in any of these locations. You can also add Dropbox or your SharePoint site, as well as opening documents stored locally on your device. If you have the OneDrive app on your tablet it automatically syncs the data (you can add both personal and business accounts). The read option borrows from the Kindle by allowing you to change the background of your documents from the traditional white to sepia or black (for night view). With the last option, the ability to switch between read and edit view is a highlight, as Word is not just about creating and editing documents, but also about consuming them. You can format your text, insert objects (such as pictures, text boxes and links), change the layout, track changes and alter viewing options. But Microsoft has brought the most commonly-used features in the desktop version of the program over to the Android tablet touch-optimized offering. Unsurprisingly, Word for Android tablets is not as fully featured as its desktop sister version.

In the beta version, there is no need to have an Office 365 account to download these apps a Microsoft email address is enough to sign up to this 'Freemium' version. But Microsoft is working on expanding it further, specifically to Intel-powered tablets. Given that Google's office suite has been out for some time, Microsoft is lagging behind in the touch-optimized productivity suite market, but it the company is hoping to find success from the many people who have already bought into its ecosystem.Ĭurrently Word for Android tablets (along with Excel and PowerPoint) is only available for ARM-based Android tablets with a 7' to 10.1' screen, 1GB RAM and running KitKat (4.4.x) or Lollipop (5.0).
