Note: Once this process is completed, you will automatically be signed into the other applications you downloaded on the same device, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. However, if you download these applications on a new device, you will have to repeat the Sign In procedure. You can do this on up to five (5) devices simultaneously.
