If you think I'm going to pay 40% more for the same thing then good luck! I'd like to show you where you can shove your subscription. Also, more generally, this app is absolutely horrendous! It's so full of bizarre quirks and inconsistent functionality between web and installed versions such as the cursor constantly jerking around with the absolute worst programmatic touch control I've ever seen. I want to pull my hair out every time I try to use this app.

I was in the middle of editing a document that was already saved. I have autosave on and I had been working on it for a couple of days. I opened the file and was editing, when I got a text from a friend. With the app and the document still open, I switched to my messenger app to text them back and then switched back to MS Word. It closed my file and brought me back to my list of files. My file was no longer there. In fact, any files from the whole week...gone. I can't trust this app now.

Cursor control sucks - especially text selection- but that's Android's seemingly unsolveable problem on the order of generating practical wormholes. The editing / screen / keyboard / "context menu" pop-up, and spellcheck modes, states, and transitions between them are a delightful smorgasbord of "Zork" / Myst-level puzzles. As usual, OneDrive syncing can be problematic. Haven't tried any advanced features or printing so I'll leave it there for now. FWIW, I'm using it.

This app is brutal. I pay for it on my Google account. But I can't access any of the features on my computer.. How stupid is that? Even worse. I can't even upgrade to make it work on my computer. I'm trying to give you more money and it still won't work. The whole subscription model sucks in general but his one especially sucks. { use it Like two or three times a year and they expect me to pay $100+ for that along with some storage space.

perfect on the go if you can't grab your computer tablets write a real quick paper essay if you're a college student I definitely recommend having word on your phone because just in case you need to get into an essay or don't want to have to carry too much this is so convenient and still allows you to type and edit just like you would on a computer just on your phone.

It used to be good, just meh, now. It doesn't do well on mobile if you cross platforms to another app. The worst thing that forces me to find workarounds for is that it doesn’t allow me to use my multiple-entry paste function. Instead, it has its own that - in 2025!- has one entry and it only allows one entry from your clipboard. ONE!! Cleary, they aren’t interested in mobile users at all. All good features require Windows. Other vendors do as well or better and don't abuse personal data.
