Add-ons Support on Google Docs and Sheets for Android

Google is giving you one less reason to think of the Docs and Sheets mobile apps as simple document viewers.

You can now install powerful add-ons for Google’s mobile office utilities. What are add-ons for Docs and Sheets and why do you need them.

These Android add-ons allow third-party applications to better integrate with Google’s productivity apps.

The functionality builds on existing partner integrations available for Google's productivity software on the web.

Those existing integrations have been available for users accessing the services from their computers.

Users can find the add-ons in the add-ons sections of the Google Docs and Sheets apps, as well as in special collections inside the Google Play Store.

It's not yet clear what the future holds for add-ons beyond Android. Google said that it is considering bringing the functionality to iOS, as well as to its Slides presentation software, but didn't offer any detail beyond that.
