Microsoft Office is now available for Google Chromebook users through the Google Play Store – a notable addition, given the two companies offer competing products in terms of office productivity software. Neither Google nor Microsoft are making a formal announcement about the Office applications’ arrival on Chromebooks. But we understand the Office Android apps will only be free to users with specific devices, while others will need to subscribe to Office 365 to take advantage of the apps. Chrome Unboxed was the first to spot the arrival of Office via Google Play on Chromebooks.

Microsoft Office Android Apps Officially Available for Chrome OS

When Google first announced that they would be adding Android app support via the Google Play Store to Chrome OS, one of the first sets of apps people were excited to receive via this update were the Microsoft Office apps for Android. Although these apps do not have all the bells and whistles of their desktop versions, they're more-or-less 'good enough', and would have been the first true Office apps available for Chromebooks (although there is a web version of Office 365).

Then, suddenly, Microsoft blocked the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps from being installed by Chrome OS users. They claimed it was because the apps were, in some unspecified way, not quite ready, though many people suspected the reasons were less noble. That the apps could be side-loaded and seemed to work well enough only fueled this speculation.

Whatever their reasons, they have finally come through, and users are beginning to see these apps, or some of them at least, available in the Play Store for Chrome users.

Are you a Chrome user with access to the Play Store, and if so, are these apps available for you yet?
