Create and edit Google Docs on the flyGoogle Docs offers a handy way to view and edit your documents on the fly. It's now a separate free app from Google Drive, though it is heavily integrated with Google's cloud storage service, giving you easy access to documents stored there. Google DocsGoogle DriveWhat's the point of Google Docs?Google Docs lets you create and edit text documents on your phone or tablet. It synchronizes with your Google Drive so you can open documents that you've already been working on either on your device, on the web, or on another device. The application allows you to create, view and edit Microsoft Word documents, which is a big plus if you don't get on with the Microsoft Office Android app.create and edit text documentscreate, view and edit Microsoft Word documentsMicrosoft Office Android appOne of the key plus points of the Google Docs app is that it lets you collaborate on documents, giving you the ability to edit in real time with others. It's a very seamless process and is great for remote working.collaborate on documentsAnother great thing about the app is that it supports offline viewing and editing, meaning you can work without an internet connection. The app supports auto-saving too, so you never need to worry about remembering to press a Save button.offline viewing and editingauto-savingIn terms of editing features Google Docs handles all the basics: changing fonts and point size, formatting paragraphs, inserting tables, and annotating documents with comments. editing featuresThere are plenty of features missing from Google Docs which you'll miss if you're looking for a more comprehensive formatting tool. For instance, you can't insert images or hyperlinks, you can't tweak column widths, and there's no support for document encryption. There's no word count in Google Docs, either.plenty of features missingYou should note that Google Docs only supports text documents. If you want to manage spreadsheets you should download the separate Google Sheets application. Google SheetsWhat's it like to use?Google Docs has a fairly basic user interface, though it's generally very easy to get around. The main pull-out menu gives you quick access to your documents from Google Drive, including starred items, plus docs that are stored locally. You can view folders and documents as a list or in grid view, with thumbnail previews shown to help you quickly identify what's what.pull-out menuOnce you've opened or created a document, editing features appear in a ribbon above the document panel. On a phone the editing options can be a bit fiddly since you need to slide the ribbon across to see all the tools. The tablet support is great though, and the larger interface provides a very comfortable way to format documents.ribbonOne improvement that would benefit Google Docs would be the inclusion of tabbed documents, which WPS Office does so well.
