Apple calls these ‘two in one’ releases ‘Universal’ software. Now Microsoft has updated Office for Mac so it runs faster on M1 Macs as well as the large base on Intel Mac’s. As we’ve explained, Microsoft 365/2019 for Mac can run on M1 chips however the existing Office for Mac software ran more slowly.

Microsoft Office 3 for Mac (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook) now work directly on the new M1 chip.
