Official SharePoint App Spotted In The Windows Store

Back in June, we reported that Microsoft will be releasing SharePoint mobile for Windows devices before end of this year. Today, SharePoint app preview was spotted in Windows Store. This upcoming app will have features similar to those of its iOS counterpart. It provides quick access to your team sites, organization portals and resources, and the people you work with. You can see site activities, get quick access to recent and popular files, and view and arrange lists on your team sites.

Features:

• Sign in to your SharePoint Online sites. You can add multiple accounts, and easily switch between them.
• Quickly find your sites. Check out the Sites tab, to see the sites you frequently visit and the sites you follow. Tap on a team site to dive into it. See site activity, navigate using the familiar quick launch navigation, easily follow or share the site, and work with your lists.
• Check out recent and popular files. In a team site, get to your recent or popular files quickly to view or share them, and have full access to your document libraries using the new integration with the OneDrive app. Edit your files easily using Office Mobile apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote.
• Use the Links tab to find promoted links for your organization. Curated by your SharePoint admin for all employees, these links get you to the organizational resources and sites that you care about.
• Search. Enterprise Search is available throughout the app and results are organized into sites, files and people.
• Find and browse for people you work with. Tap on a user to get to their contact card and to see who they work with and what they are working on.

Find the listing here from Windows Store. You can’t download the app from Store yet since it is in preview, but I expect Microsoft to release beta version of it soon.
