Were you in edit mode or just reading the document?

I guess I will need to keep playing.

Richard,

 

I was just playing with a document in the Word app and I had lines available 
for navigation in my rotor. I selected it and it seemed to work as expected. I 
also tried the Reflow option which was the next to last button on the right of 
the top line menu and liked the way reading worked in this view. It's opposite 
is Print layout view I believe.

I’ve played a little more with Word on the iPhone.

It seems to be pretty accessible with Word and syncs with Dropbox and OneDrive.

My one big complaint is that you cannot navigate by lines.  In the rotor, you 
have characters, words, headings…

This is whether you are in edit mode or not.  And with or without a Bluetooth 
keyboard.

You can just use the up and down arrow keys if you are on a Bluetooth keyboard, 
but I have not spent enough time with it to know if there is a point when you 
arrow yourself out of the edit field.

 

This seems like a good start to having better Word access on the go.

 

My other complaint is that when creating a new document, if you pick the take 
notes template, there is a lot of non-English words that you cannot delete, 
which makes it pretty much useless.

 

The blank document is fine.  I have not tried the other templates they offer.

 

Since the basic features are free, I encourage folks to give it a try.

You do have to have or create a free Microsoft account to use the app.  You can 
create one from within the app if you don’t have one.

 

Also, if you simply search for “Word” in the app store, it is the first result.

 

Richard
