SharePoint
app for Android and iOS has been around for quite some time already.
This app is often dubbed as ‘intranet in your pocket’ and those who are
running on SharePoint / Office365 probably might agree with this fact.
Microsoft keeps on consistently improving the capabilities and user
experience based on the feedback from its user base.
The
recent update of the App gives you access to the new releases that
Microsoft has released like Hub Sites, Team Sites etc. The latest
version allows you to keep you informed with the comments from news
articles that are published. You can always stay updated on every
happening in your organization.

even before end of April SharePoint mobile app has been updated with
full access to Hub Sites and all its associated sites through your

SharePoint features. You will now get full cross-site navigation, have a
view of the aggregated activities, news, files and lists etc. Hub Sites
