Google has updated its productivity suite today and in case you’ve never considered Google Docs, Sheets and Slides, you should do so for the very simple fact that they are free to use on any Android device. Of course, they do not offer the powerful features found in Microsoft Office, but what makes Google products interesting are their simplicity of use and collaborative features.
In this update, Google added the following features:
Google Docs: Easily format tables, images and drawings with new toolbar items.
Google Sheets: Easily format images and shapes with new toolbar items.
Google Slides: Easily format images and shapes with new toolbar items.
These features are already available in the Android version of Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, but if you’re a Google user, you will find these new formatting features useful.
Google just made life easier for Google Sheets users with a new feature that allows them to copy and separate comma delimited text neatly into columns. This is only possible if the data is separated by commas, then a contextual menu will appear after the data is pasted into the sheet and the user can choose to split text into columns. This new feature will be a real time savior for heavy Sheets users. The update may not be available just yet, so make sure you check Google Play Store over the next two weeks.
