  1. What version of Office is available from the Mac App Store?

    The Office apps available from the Mac App Store provide the very latest version of Office on the Mac. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook require an Office 365 subscription to activate. OneNote and OneDrive do not require an Office 365 subscription, but some premium features may require an Office 365 subscription.

  2. Is this the same as Office 2019?

    No. Office 2019 is the one-time purchase, non-subscription product (also known as perpetual).

The apps available in the Mac App Store are not compatible with Office 2019 licenses.

In-app purchase offers include Office 365 Home, and Office 365 Personal. Your license from the perpetual release of Office will not work with the app versions from the App Store.
