For those that have an Office 365 subscription, you will continue to gain the benefits of a full Office experience across your devices with advanced editing, including images and charts, and collaboration, Dropbox integration, and OneDrive storage. On the iPhone, the Office Mobile app is being replaced by individual apps for Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
