Apple’s M1 chipset gets native support for Windows productivity suite

The wait is finally over, and we now have Microsoft office’s native support for M1 chip architecture to Windows productivity suite. Many users have been using the office for M1 Mac, but they were missing out on most of the features and overall true system integrity.

The announcement came from Microsoft, where the company stated that its new office update brings native support for Apple’s new custom chip architecture to the Windows productivity suite. The apps getting the updates are Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Unfortunately, Teams are not getting the update.

Apple M1 chip: The fastest chip made by Apple, ever!

According to sources, the update will make the apps universal. It means that the same versions will run on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs, so any upcoming updates or features will be coming simultaneously for both platforms.

For businesses and professionals that heavily depend on Microsoft’s Teams will be disappointed since the update doesn’t include the Teams app’s new features. But the software giant has promised that it is working on it.

For users of Office on M1 Macs and have automatic updates turned on should have the new versions sometime today. The rest can easily update it through the Mac App Store or Microsoft’s AutoUpdate software. Outlook users will have an added advantage as they not only get native Apple Silicon support, but they will also receive support for iCloud accounts. It will allow them to sync their email, contacts, and calendars to the app if they use Apple’s service to store them.
