QuickOffice became free. To it, Google adds 10 GB to Drive for two years.

It was officially announced yesterday that the mobile office package QuickOffice (the search giant bought it at one time and closed the Kharkov and St. Petersburg development offices a year later, having dismissed over a hundred engineers) becomes free for both of its versions - for Android and iOS . Previously, there were paid versions of Quickoffice Pro and Quickoffice Pro HD.

QuickOffice can work with Microsoft Office files — you can open and edit Word, Excel files, PowerPoint presentations, and a number of other related features.

In addition, an additional 10 GB on Google Drive will act as a gingerbread factor, which will be provided to QuickOffice users for storing files for 2 years "... within a few weeks ." True, this is a hurry - the place is distributed until September 26.

Interestingly, Google has gone for such a specific share of good right after Microsoft announced that Surface-tablets with Windows RT will receive a free version of Office, and Apple on September 10 also promised iWork buyers to new Apple devices for free.
