It's great to be here, I've, been here last time also and last time we were doing a Microsoft 365 app the extension of the themes app on Microsoft 365 app for an Android app in the preview. So that was the last time I came here today. I would be focusing on not just on the Android app we I would be also focusing on the IOS app. So it's already there now in test flight and before I even get started.

A

I've know that a lot of you guys do not know much about Microsoft 365 app, so quickly. I would love to tell you more about it. So this is the app we've rebranded it earlier. It was called as the office app. It is basically the mobile version of microsoft365.com, which was also earlier called office.com. What all can you do in Microsoft 365 app, so everything in your Microsoft 365 account from word excel PowerPoint, PDF scans, everything that you can think of would be there or is already there in Microsoft 365 app today and going forward.

A

We would be also integrating a lot of AI power tools- productivity, it's it's an all-in-one productivity app. So we aim to include everything: that's there in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem in this app and if I look at how we've designed the app it's completely secure user data, everything is managed, as per the policies in Microsoft, so coming to the next version, where the where this app is I would love for you to just download this app and start using it.

A

So we already have 100 million, plus monthly, active users across Android and iOS, and we've been getting very good feedback on the play stores as well. So would love for you to try out now coming to this feature. What uh so, you all use the themes apps that are there now with this feature, you would be able to start using these apps on Microsoft 365 mobile app as well. The these apps already work on microsoft365.com, but now they've been enabled for the mobile version as well.

A

So it's been released worldwide on the Android app, however, for the IOS app we are in the beta platform and in fact, in the chat I'm quickly, sharing all the relevant links, how you can print the apps, how you can. um Basically, we've also done some blogs around it, and you can read more how to join the test flight ring for the IOS app, and it will also help you pick up a sample app, which is Northwind order. You can pick that app and you can deploy it.

A

You can start working with your developer portal and side load this app and you can start experiencing before you start building your own app. So as I move to the next, there is one important thing that I missed, which is the Android app, also allows you to remotely debug from the Chrome browser.

A

So when you go through this content and even the price, the earlier video that we did, you would get all the insights into how to start building and how to start extending so I would love for you to just try out and in fact, I've also shared a link in the bottom. You know if you could share your feedback with us and if anybody wants to get on a one-on-one, 30 minutes call so that we can also help you build these apps.

A

So you can explore the Microsoft 365 platform and we can tell you you know how to best use this platform to get more users, and then there is a very quick demo of how this works. So here I have the teams desktop app, so you go to the apps tab and here I'm, adding an app which is Adobe Acrobat sign.

A

This is this app already works on our IOS and Android app? It's already been upgraded.

A

And so you can see now I'm launching the Microsoft 365 IOS app and here I'm launching the Adobe Acrobat sign for Microsoft. I put, you know you can move across and you can just sign in to this app and you can start using it on mobile.

A

Another I have the sample app that we talked about, which is Northwind order. We've specially built it for our developers to try and test out this experience. So you can see you can move across tabs. There are a lot of features that are supported. So, if anything at any point you get any roadblock, do let us know I've shared our feedback form.

A

We would love to catch up with you and would love to know more about your app yeah I think it was a quick demo and yeah I am towards the end of it would love for you to share the feedback there.

B

Yeah I think there's some things in the chat we'll have you take a look at just because there's so many on the call. We can't really have the audio open for everybody, um but definitely exciting, and thank you for engaging and asking for feedback. We know that everyone in the community appreciates being able to be heard. So uh that is awesome.
