HI Marcus, yes you’re right, Apple does do equivalent applications but both my wife and I are back and forth sharing documents (Word) and spreadsheets (Excel) in both directions for various work related things (which are Windows based environments) for convenience to ourselves. Maybe they do transition in both directions seamlessly but I haven’t verified that - my wife would struggle to go back and forth between Office and Mac applications of the same file.
Line of least resistance is my objective here.
