Even although cloud-based productiveness suites like Google Docs are extremely fashionable, many individuals (and huge companies) nonetheless function on good ol’ Microsoft Office. The Word textual content processor was Microsoft’s first Android app to cross 500 million installs on the Play Store, and a bit of over a yr later, it has now handed the 1 billion mark.
As with most apps that attain this many installations, the rely is not made up totally of downloads from the Play Store. Microsoft has agreements with Samsung and different producers to pre-install Word (and several other different apps) on telephones and tablets, so there is a good likelihood lots of these billion installations come from units the place the app has by no means been opened.
Still, this is a vital milestone for Microsoft, as Word has change into the corporate’s first Android app to succeed in that many installs. Personally, I nonetheless favor Word XP.
