    A Microsoft 365 Family license is for six different users. Installing on multiple devices is allowed. The person who purchased the product can share it with family members; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/share-your-microsoft-365-family-subscription-b389b9ce-3ae3-4a82-9017-39d79972fcba.

    Short answer: YUP!

    The MS sales page says this:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/buy/compare-all-microsoft-365-products

    <snip>

    Works on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android^4^

    Use on your favorite devices at home or on the go.

    1. App availability varies by device/language. iOS and Android require separate app download.

    </snip>

    Basically, your subscription give you the right to use it to "activate" office on any devices that Office has been translated to: PC, Mac, Tablets, iPhones, Android phones, Tablets etc. ...

    .

    Each person in the 365 subscription can have Office open and "active" on up to 5 separate computers at the same time (yes, in other words, 365 Family using all 5 shares could be up and running on up to 30 computers of various makes and OS's at the same time.)

    .
