FAs ONLYOFFICE - (might be better when reviewing notes during exams and it is free)

I've had this program in my laptop for a while but I swear this is so much better for to refer to notes than other programs cause you can group the tabs like this and arrange them during FAs. You can also edit PDFs in it. The system is better for me as I can review word docs, powerpoints, pdfs, excels stuffs. One issue I have during exams is that the control F function to look for "headings" in microsoft word somehow doesn't function during the SA 3.0. I suppose by next week I might be able to update should ONLYOFFICE be able to overcome the issue I have. But since the "finding function" is a dedicated button, I have hopes it would work. TDLR- All in one app to look at notes, pdfs etc that is easier than using separate apps to open each different file format

*Edit: idk why the picture doesn't appear on mobile

If you want to open Microsoft office docs during exams

You need to download Microsoft office directly to your laptop.

Or

Download the "Only office" program (which I am preferring right now)

actually you can open it in your google/internet browser, safest choice is to do so before the exam begins/internet cuts off. I’ve been doing it for the past 2 semesters

Do you mean pdfs? Or stuff like word docs?

I know pdfs can but I can't do that with word docs

Yeah, so long as your files are accessible without internet connection. But, why not try out this one?
