These universal apps work on all iPhone and iPod Touch devices running iOS 7.1 or a later version. Microsoft intends to develop universal versions for both Android and Windows phones as well.
In March this year, Microsoft debuted Office apps on the iPad with some restrictions. In order to create new documents or edit old ones, or to save documents to OneDrive or SharePoint, you needed to pay for an Office 365 subscription.
The newest versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint do not have these restrictions and you can freely create and edit your documents, though you will still need a Microsoft account.
