14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has just released a huge pack of improvements for its Windows 10 apps as part of its Windows as a Service approach that brings us updates really, really often.
Today, the whole Office Mobile suite got updated, so if you’re running Word, PowerPoint, or Excel to work with documents, make sure you have a look in the store to get the new versions. OneNote also received its very own updates, and so did Mail and Calendar, which actually got another update only a few days ago.
The Office Mobile suite is offered free of charge on devices with a display of 10 inches or smaller, while everyone can use it with an Office 365 subscription. All apps are updated through the store.
Microsoft Photos, Groove Music, Phone Companion, Solitaire Collection, and Movies & TV are the other apps that have been updated by Microsoft today.
Unfortunately, Microsoft hasn’t released any change log for these new versions, so we can’t tell exactly what’s new and what’s been fixed. Most likely, these are all performance improvements and bug fixes, so you should notice increased speed, better stability and performance boosts after installing them.
If you can’t see the new versions just yet, launch the store and look in the Downloads and updates section to force the scanning process. The download could take a while because some apps, such as PowerPoint Mobile, received more than 100 MB worth of updates.
