Use of MS Office on iPad mini

Is MS office free on iPad mini? Or a subscription is needed for iPad mini also?

As far as I know, iPads with screen sizes above 10.2 inches need annual subscription of MS Office. What about iPad mini?

Thanks and cheers in advance.

You are partially correct.


For devices with a screen size below 10.1”, such as the iPad mini, the core Microsoft Apps provide restricted “free” functionality - that includes the ability to create and edit documents. For devices with screens that exceed 10.1”, without an Office 365 subscription, you can only open/view an existing document.


In both cases, an O365 subscription unlocks full App functionality.
