Microsoft OneDrive
A cloud drive that stores files as you wish
In real life, we are surrounded by a lot of information, materials, pictures or documents. Many of these things are important, many are precious and many are needed at any time. But sometimes we store it in our computers and it is easy to lose the files, or many times we don't have our computers or removable drives with us when we want to use it, which brings a lot of trouble to our file security and usage, so how can we avoid these troubles? Microsoft OneDrive is a cloud drive software from Microsoft Corporation. With it we can use Microsoft OneDrive to get more done wherever we are. It can access and share our documents, photos and other files from our Android device, computer (PC or Mac) or any other device we use. You can stay productive and collaborate wherever you are with Office mobile apps. When we're on the go, the OneDrive app for Android makes it easy to work with our personal and work files.
What's special about Microsoft OneDrive
A perfect fit for our Office applications, we can easily open and save OneDrive files in Office applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote. Putting files in OneDrive allows us to save and share our files better and also ensures that our files are not lost. We can easily find our stored photos using the automatic tagging feature. With it we can share our files better and receive immediate notifications when a shared document is edited. With it we can access the most important files offline, which greatly increases our freedom of movement and efficiency. To sum up, using OneDrive to store our files has made our work and study more efficient and free. It may not have any really amazing or unusual features, but it provides users with a service that we all use for work and study, and it takes this service to the extreme. That's what makes it so special.
Does Microsoft OneDrive cost anything?
It's a free download to use, and for our OneDrive account, which is only 5GB for free users, this is obviously not enough. 1TB of space can be obtained by purchasing Office 365. Free 3-5TB of space can be obtained through Education Mail, which is very affordable for students. For business users, 5TB of space is available through Enterprise.

As of now, Microsoft OneDrive has reached 1,000,000,000+ downloads on the Google Play shop, with over 2.5 million people giving it a superb score of 4.5. This shows how much users recognise and trust it.
