Images can be saved to OneDrive, OneNote or into new Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents.

Until now, Lens was only available for iPhone and iPod Touch.  Now iPad users can join in using the same app in the iTunes store.

Android users have enjoyed Office Lens since mid-2015.  It’s also available for Windows 10 computers and devices.
