Features of Microsoft 365 for macOS

Apps for Mac

Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and OneDrive are available through the Mac App Store. Editing in Word, Excel and PowerPoint from that store requires an eligible subscription; OneNote and OneDrive are available without one.

Cloud documents

AutoSave and version history for OneDrive and SharePoint files. Work with the current shared copy of a document and, when necessary, return to a previous version saved in its history.

New features

The subscription provides access to current application features for Mac. Updates add tools while the subscription is active; specific features may arrive on Mac and Windows at different times.

Collaborating on a file

Edit a OneDrive or SharePoint document with colleagues in supported apps. Comments and visible changes help you review material in a single copy.

Documents without internet access

Work with locally saved files in the installed Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. A connection is needed for subscription verification, updates, and synchronization of cloud changes.

Prepare data with Power Query

Import and transform data in Excel using saved steps. Available connections and editor features differ between Windows and macOS.

Copilot assistance in apps

Use licensed AI features when preparing documents and presentations. Support depends on the plan, app version, language and organization settings.

Excel macros on Mac

Record repeated actions and edit VBA in desktop Excel. Macros that depend on Windows components may need adapting before they can run on Mac.

Install or Update

A new Mac needs an installation package. A standalone update assumes that the application is already installed.

Up-to-date macOS

Check package compatibility against the current support policy for Office for Mac and your system version.
