Microsoft has optimized Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote apps for the iPad Pro. Here are some highlights of the new Office capabilities that really stand out with multitasking features on the iPad Pro.
Split View
Need to use two apps at once? No problem with Split View. You can now have two active Office apps on the screen at the same time. For example, you can analyze your business results in Excel and update the corresponding chart in PowerPoint, so you can see your data and presentation side by side. Alternatively, you can review an email attachment and make the required changes to a related Word document right away. The changes are automatically updated in the attachment, so you’re ready to send in a single tap.
Slide Over
Need to open a second app? Easy. Keep the first app open and use Slide Over to open a second one. You can easily review your email and add an important list to a OneNote notebook or create a sales presentation and quickly send an email to your team reminding them of the upcoming client pitch meeting.
These updated apps are already available and you can start using it when the iPad Pro hits store shelves.
