At the same time, the Office 2016 apps run beautifully on the best Windows ever, including the new Sway for Windows 10 to create shareable, interactive stories which look great on any screen. Office Mobile apps on Windows 10 empower on-the-go productivity, and work with Continuum2 so users can use their phone like a PC.
