iOS - Microsoft Office Visual Installation Guide
This document details the installation of Office apps on iOS for all students, faculty, and staff.
Retired and Emeritus faculty are not eligible for this license. They are still able to purchase Microsoft 365 University provided they do not have an existing Microsoft 365 University account.
Note: This guide uses the Microsoft Word app, but the installation is the same for other apps such as Outlook, OneNote, Excel, Powerpoint, Teams, and OneDrive.
- In the App Store, search for and locate the desired application. In this example, we will be using Microsoft Word. To download the app, click Get and sign in with your Apple ID if prompted.
- Then download the app by clicking the GET button to the right of the app name. You may be prompted to confirm this download.

- Once the download is complete, open the app.
- Upon opening the app, you will be met with a Get Started message (as shown at the bottom of the example image below). Tap on the message banner to continue with the sign-in process.
- On the next screen, enter your @wisc.edu email address into the textbox.
- Then tap Next.
- A NetID login screen should appear. Type in your NetID (not your full email address) and the associated password.
- Click the red Log In button.
- You may be prompted to confirm your login via an additional authentication service, such as Duo.
- Once logged in, you should see the homepage (as shown in the example image below). The app installation is now complete.
