AppleInsider:

While most media attention was spent on Microsoft’s Office for iPad debut, the company also updated its Office Mobile app for iPhone, making the software free for home use. The price drop also applies to the app’s Android version.

The update’s release notes for the update lists only free pricing for home use, and bug fixes as the update changes. This suggests Microsoft will continue to require an Office 365 subscription for business use of the iPhone app.

Microsoft Office Mobile for the iPhone is a free download in the iOS App Store. [DIRECT LINK]
