Introduction

Franklin County employees with a Microsoft 365 license are permitted to install the Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, OneDrive, etc.) on home computers, tablets, and smartphones, and use those devices to access County data.

These instructions will help you install Office apps on your mobile devices, whether you’re using current-generation Android, iPhone, or iPad devices.
