HellopvpOffice ! 

This sounds a bit strange. You are correct that your Office365 credentials is the only requirement to activate Office ProPlus via Office365 

Could your perhaps provide me with some screenshots of the message that pops up ,and also tell me how you went about installing the apps. 

Kind Regards

    Thank you for your help.

    Here is the screenshot - sorry it is a bit blurred but it is recognisable .

    I went to the ms office 365 website using the Silk browser on my Android tablet. I think I remember going to download Office 365 from there and this came up. I am a registered user of Office 365 on my PC and it did accept my login as such.

     Any ideas?

      No problem! pvpOffice 

      Are you using a Office365 Home Subscription? Or an enterprise/business version? 

       

      Looking at your screenshot it seems like you are trying to download the retail version ( office 2019 ) 

      Kind Regards

        I have a home version. Pretty sure it is not enterprise/business. Please tell me how to install my Android office 365 in my situation.

         

        Many thanks,
