Hi,

As part of making the Word Mobile app available as a Word Viewer in college, I wanted to know if end of support was set for use on desktop?

Also, can you confirm that the use of word mobile as a viewer on Windows 10 is well recommended by Microsoft?

Thanks in advance !

    Hi @Remix Rox

    According to the page: Word Mobile, the end-of-support date (January 12, 2021) is for phones using Windows 10 Mobile, not for desktops or laptops.

    Regarding whether it ends support on PCs, I do not find any official information from Microsoft at current time. Thank you for your understanding.
