Google announced Docs and Sheets would be getting native Office file support<\/a> last week and now the update is here. Now you can work with your Office documents and spreadsheets without converting<\/strong> them first.<\/p>\n

This release arrives after Google announced it would remove Quickoffice<\/a> from app stores. Google consolidated Quickoffice’s features into Google Docs and Sheets.<\/p>\n

Both Docs and Sheets get a makeover. The interface simplified and there are now floating buttons<\/strong> for creating a new document and sheet. The design gives us a preview of Android’s Material Design<\/a> that’s coming in Android L<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The update to Google Docs and Sheets is rolling out today<\/strong> so check your Google Play app or download them directly below. iOS users will have to wait a bit longer as Google hasn’t announced when this update will arrive for Apple devices.<\/p>\n
