With Microsoft Word, it’s never been easier to create, edit, and share documents on iPhone and iPad.

What we love: How the app syncs coauthored documents across platforms in real time. So if you’re working on an iPad, your changes will appear instantly for your teammate on a PC.

Quick tip: Not in the mood to read a document? Try the app’s Read Aloud feature. Tap the gear icon to tweak reading speed; the arrow buttons let you quickly skip forward or back a paragraph.
