Microsoft has announced that soon the office suite for iOS and Android is completely free. Happiness!

Microsoft made a knight's move. More precisely, office. The company announced that it is now mobile applications Word, Excel and PowerPoint will be free for iOS, as well as for Android.

We shall look for the catch?

It turns out that there is no trick. Microsoft is concerned that third-party solutions eat up a very large share of the market and pay for a subscription to Office 365, many do not want. Therefore, the company does all the office suite free, but premium functionality reserves for those who have a subscription. They will be able to use the cloud OneDrive for Business and Dropbox for Business. Ie still have to pay more to corporations than to individual users.

The company introduced the office applications for Android-plates, as well as a revised version of the application for the iPhone.
