Google Docs has proven to be a faulty app on both the iPad Pro and the Surface Pro 4, but the Surface Pro 4 has a few things at its advantage. The iPad Pro Google Docs app doesn’t match case during a search, cannot insert links or pictures and can’t find and replace. There’s limited formatting options, but at least it allows for typing and offline access.
Google Docs On the Surface Pro 4
Google Docs on Surface Pro 4 doesn’t have autocorrect, nor does it capitalize the first letter of a sentence. All in all, owners are better off getting an additional keyboard for both tablets, as this will probably give them the best experience on any writing platform. However, it’s much more viable for use than the iPad Pro. The entire platform is better suited, and doesn’t have the pesky formatting limitations that the iPad Pro has. Most reviewers, both Microsoft and Apple fanatics, are leaning more towards the Surface Pro 4 when it comes to using Google for Work Apps.
Apple Will Have to Introduce Specific Office Apps to Win Favor
Reviewers also suggest Apple releases their own line of office apps, hopefully, an upgrade from Keynote, Pages and Sheets in order to appeal for a business environment. Despite the fact that Tim Cook himself said he travels only with the Apple Watch, iPad Pro and iPhone, these devices are not yet well suited for work.
