Apparently productivity starts at 10.1” in Microsoft’s world - not that we’re complaining. If you have a 9.7” iPad, iPad Mini, or even an iPhone, then you can use the full version of PowerPoint (and all other Office apps) without an Office 365 subscription. Of note, Microsoft only requires iPads over 10.1” to pay up to get editing functionality. Whether this is a fair price is a matter we can only leave to you, but the software package on offer, and especially the 1TB of cloud storage that works across iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Linux, makes this a pretty compelling subscription in our eyes. An Office 365 subscription comes with the full Microsoft Office suite of apps as well was 1TB of OneDrive storage, so there is quite a bit of value there. If you want to edit or create presentations from the iPad though, you’re going to need to subscribe to Office 365, which runs $6.99/month or $70/year for individuals on up to 5 devices. PowerPoint for iOS is free from the App Store and allows you to view PowerPoint files from anywhere. We put together a short list of our must-have, most-used apps for increasing productivity. We spend an inordinate amount of time sorting through hundreds of apps to find the very best. Our Must-Have, Most Used Productivity Apps
