Microsoft launches Android App that allows you to remotely control your office documents

Microsoft has launched a new app called Office Remote, that allows you to start your PowerPoint presentation, advance the slides, see your speaker notes, and control an on-screen laser pointer with a touch of your finger — all from your phone.

You can also navigate between Excel worksheets and graphs, and control data slicers from the palm of your hand. And you can scroll through a Word document or quickly jump to specific sections or comments.

The app requires Microsoft Office 2013 on your laptop or PC and does not work with Office 2013 RT or earlier versions of Office. You will also require bluetooth on your PC or laptop. The desktop add-in for Office Remote must be installed on your PC; this is available at http://aka.ms/officeremotepc
