14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has recently released a new update for its Office productivity suite on the iPhone, delivering a set of welcome improvements supposed to improve document sharing on Apple’s devices.
First and foremost, all included apps now come with support for Egnyte and Learnium, which are both file sharing services, but with different purposes. For instance, Egnyte is mostly aimed at enterprises, whereas Learnium is specifically targeting students who simply want to share documents online.
In addition to these sharing improvements, PowerPoint has also received a new feature to better handle multimedia content on the iPhone. Starting with this update, iPhone users can play videos with closed captions in a slide, but also multiple audio tracks in a slideshow.
Microsoft is continuously improving its productivity suite, not only on the iPhone, but also on Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile, with new features, improvements, and bug fixes released every once in a while. This isn’t at all surprising though, given the fact that Office is one of the company’s main cash cows, so expect the same strategy to continue in the coming months with more Office updates.
In the meantime, users on iPhone can proceed with downloading these new updates on their devices from the App Store and everyone is recommended to do so because in addition to those mentioned above, bug fixes and other improvements are also likely to be part of the package.
