Microsoft Office App Is Getting a New Name and Logo
Microsoft revealed in a support article that Office.com, the Office mobile app on Android and iPhone/iPad, and the Office app for Windows will have a new name: Microsoft 365. There will also be a new icon which is a hexagon with blue and purple colours. Microsoft has further revealed that you do not need to do anything to maintain access to your apps and features. Also, the standalone apps on desktops aren’t affected at all. See Also; Microsoft Defender Finds it Tough to Deal with Next-Gen Hackers
The Office app on Windows and Office.com have mostly served as a simple portal to your recent documents, while the mobile version is the main way to use Word, Excel, and PowerPoint — those apps are still available separately, but the Office app packs them into one single download.
