Now, I could used the app on the big iPad but that would require me to use a different account. In December of 2019 I ceased my involvement with a PC user group as the co-convenor of a combined PC & Mac User Group info session held each month. But on their Microsoft system, I’m still associated with the now-defunct interest group and can log into its Microsoft account.
I could do that but won’t as it’s unethical.
Blurb from app store on my iPad:
“Microsoft Office is now available on iPad: We're combining the Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint apps you know into a single, iPadOS-optimised app. Plus, you'll
see additional tools to keep you more productive than ever. For example,
you'll be able to quickly create and sign PDFs, and transform pictures into
documents.
Get to Image-based Workflows Readily: Tap 'Share' in the phone gallery
outside the Office app, to get to several actions like Create PPT, Create PDF
and more. In addition, if there are any recent screenshots when you open
the Office app, these are surfaced as a suggestion to covert to PDF or PPT.
Insert date, shape, image and notes in PDF: Now you can easily insert date,
shape, image and notes in PDFs using new capabilities.”
On devices with a screen less than 10.1 inches, all that’s required in order to perform edits is a free Microsoft account. But on larger screens, you’ll need a 365 subscription or account.
I tried the app on my 10.2 in iPad 8 and my 7.9 in iPad Mini & can attest to these requirements. Ergo, the app is on my iPad Mini but not on the big one.
Got a neat way to download YouTube videos & other downloadable stuff on iOS/iPadOS: set the Insight web browser as the default. Whenver something downloadable is encountered, a Download tab will appear near the top left corner of the window .This is a very interesting browser because of the extensive range of extensions, many of which are built-in.
Cappuccino is too clever. I tried entering a particular thing here that requires each item to be numbered as 1. Cappuccino got all clever and numbered each one sequentially with a break where the structure changed. So instead of a series of 16 items all numbered 1, Cappuccino rendered it as 1-4, then 1-12.
Go here to see the intended item in plain text format:

@streakmachine What does that consist of? I have the original Oxygene 1 to 6 on CD & via Apple Music a 20-part collection known as The Oxygene Trilogy.
@sumudu There’s another option, fit big wheels to your office chair. Like these: https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B085NQ8L9R/ref=ppxyodtbasintitleo04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@streakmachine I have four HomePods in my place: a stereo pair of big ones associated with the Apple TV and a stereo pair of Minis in the main bedroom.

@joeo10 You could avail yourself of @matigo’s NextCloud via https://cloud.10centuries.org to be a repository for BitWarden data.
Dateline: March 16th, 2021. LastPass free tier will be available on a single device only. And from May 17th, email support for the free tier will cease. Users will have three chances to decide which device they wish to use as their repository for LastPass info. However, apple users with relatively modern devices can use Continuity Clipboard to copy text from an iPhone to a Mac & vice versa, this may be a way to keep using the free level of LastPass.
If users want more devices covered, it’s US$36 p.a. for individuals or US$48 p.a. for families, this is a similar cost with 1Password.
Apple users can also use iCloud Keychain to manage their passwords across multiple devices for no extra cost.
Here’s a link to an article about free alternatives to LastPass: https://www.theverge.com/22285499/password-manager-lastpass-free-bitwarden-zoho
@jussipekonen Watching it now, on the Apple TV, audio blasting from a stereo pair of HomePods. Great scenery in the video clip, too.
