Here's Excel to iPad


And now the end of this mini-especially now that I have brought from Appleismo, the full Office suite for the iPad. I have spoken of Word, PowerPoint and now Excel one of the most powerful spreadsheets that exists in the market. 

Will the same happen in the iPad? We will see.

Excel for the iPad has many virtues and of course, some other defect. First of all I would like to note that the Office suite for iPad is perhaps not directed to the general public. Obviously, anyone who wants to can pay a subscription, but the real target is anyone who needs the office suite programs for labor or ecosystem studies. For everyone else there are free options that we have already discussed.


The application is completely designed from scratch to run on the iPad, and it shows. Just pull it asks us that we connect to our Office 365 account Where do we: 

  • Access to both our account OneDrive to see all documents stored on it, or the ability to view documents that we charged through iTunes. 
  • We may also choose to store our documents, whether in the cloud or physically in our iPad.
  • We can set up more accounts OneDrive besides personal. If we had a different to our Office 365 account, business space we can also access documents stored on it. 

  • Default templates you can access different styles, create a new or use an already made​​.

Here's PowerPoint to iPad

It was time for the real work. The iPad, of course. On March 27, Microsoft announced the official launch of its famous Office suite, now the most powerful office tool on the Apple tablet. 

Before going to discuss the virtues (many) and weaknesses (few) PowerPoint to iPad, is necessary to differentiate between different types of users: casual and professional. User homespun PowerPoint is too big, and not so much in features but rather in handling price. PowerPoint to iPad is designed for someone who lives to make presentations, someone who is immersed in the Microsoft ecosystem has several devices and values ​​the synchronization between them.

PowerPoint to iPad: quick, easy and intuitive

To test this app, I created a presentation from scratch using almost all the features it offers, namely: 

  • A default template of the wide selection. 
  • Different slider distributions. 
  • Geometric shapes, arrows and text to create a simple flow diagram. 
  • Created a table of 5 × 6 with a custom distribution. 
  • Place a couple of photos and use frames, shadows and effects. 
  • Transitions of different types. 
  • Copy, duplicate and move slides from one place to another. 
  • So a total of 6 slides in half an hour, since the launch of the app to have it complete (removing several breaks in between). The result you can see for yourself in the gallery at the end of the post, but as you advance that is very satisfying for a job done from a tablet without a mouse and keyboard.
