If you have Sign Out, that would suggest you’re signed in already with a 
Microsoft account using your personal email address.

Try logging in with that address to office.com/myaccount and see if anything is 
listed under subscriptions/products for your account.

Hi Sam, accounts>settings, connected services, OneDrive - Personal with my

There is an option to Add a Service, and then Sign Out. Word is the same. 
Go to OneCloud >files and their all accessible, not very much only 34.6 mb due 
to recent clear out.

Sorry about the size pasted it into iPhone excel but this is the same on the 
iPad except when I open one in iPad I’m advised that I need a 365 subscription. 
Daughter has just taken my old iPad Air which worked like my iPhone.

As far as I know, Office for iOS doesn’t differentiate between devices and will 
only work with an office365 subscription.

If you open Excel on your iPhone, go to Settings > Account > does it say you’re 
signed in? If you click ‘Office Apps’ does it say “Subscription includes” then 
lists the available apps?
