Another option for editing Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files is Documents to Go. This app ships with some devices, so check to see if you already have it installed. You can use the free version of the app to view documents or the US $14.99 paid app to edit them. The paid version also includes PDF support. I recommend trying the free version first, to make sure it is compatible with your tablet and displays your documents correctly.
You can also use Documents to Go to edit items you’ve uploaded to Google Docs. Connect the app to your Google account by tapping the appropriate button (see Figure 18–8), and you can browse through items on Google Docs whenever your tablet is connected to the Internet.
Whether you’re browsing items stored locally or on your Google Docs account, you can tap an item to open it. If you have the Pro version, you can also tap the Menu button on the bottom-left corner to start editing, as shown in Figure 18–9.
Documents to Go was designed primarily for people who are not using wireless keyboards to edit documents. You can still use it either way, but you’ll find there’s a lot more tapping involved than there is with text items in the Google Docs app.
If you use a Windows PC, you can download the Documents To Go desktop app for syncing between your tablet and your computer. Changes you make to an item in either location will be reflected on the other device.
