Back in 2020, Microsoft announced that it would be changing the name of its Office 365 subscription to Microsoft 365, acknowledging that it had become more than just a work app. Now, it’s removing most of the remaining Office branding, according to new updates spotted by The Verge<\/em>. “In the coming months, Office.com, the Office mobile app, and the Office app for Windows will become the Microsoft 365 app, with a new icon, a new look, and even more features,” a FAQ states.<\/p>\n Currently, you can access Microsoft’s Word, Excel and other apps online at Office.com, but that will soon be switched to Microsoft365.com \u2014 with a new six-sided logo replacing the current square one. The changes will happen next month, and the Office app for Windows, MacOS, iOS and Android will be rebranded in January. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The app names themselves won’t change, as you’ll still be using Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, Outlook, Clipchamp, Stream and Designer. There will also be a Microsoft 365 app on mobile and desktop that will act as a centralized hub for information, showing meetings, files, documents and more. <\/p>\n The Office name will remain for one-time purchases through Office 2021 and Office LTSC that offers apps through volume licensing. However, it’s now considered a legacy brand, so any new features will be for Microsoft 365 and not Office, according to The Verge<\/em>. Microsoft added that “there are no changes to Office 365 subscription plans.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
