Full Google Docs Editing comes to iOS, Android

Over on the Google blog they’ve announced that you can now enjoy a full featured version of their popular Google documents with your holiday Gingerbread…or Froyo…or iPad.  This improvement will be fully shipped out and available to all by today.

So what did Google get you for Christmas?

  • You can work on that important memo…while on the bus or train to work.
  • If you’re behind on a group proposal, but really want to make it to the ball game tonight, your whole team can work on it from the bleacher seats.
  • You can take minute-by-minute notes at a concert so you’ll always remember the setlist. And your friends can jealously follow in real-time at home.
  • …and the list goes on!

To try this out,  head on over to docs.google.com and select a document to edit. Then, when you’re viewing it, press the Edit button to switch to the mobile editor- it’s just that simple.  Previously, the live editing feature wasn’t widely available on mobile devices, and so this improvement should be good news to anyone who needs collaboration while away from their main computer.

Google will also support multiple languages as well as editing features for it’s spreadsheets.  These features will be available on Adroid Froyo and Gingerbread, and iOS versions 3.0+.  Happy Holidays!
