Windows 10: Free Mobile APP Of MS WORD and OFFICE ?

Hello,

Just came across the free (called "mobile") downloads of MS WORD, etc. for W10.
From what I can see, they really are free.

Sure I am missing something:

If free, why would anyone buy Office ?

What am I, as usual, missing ?
Thought I would ask here first before downloading. Pros and cons of, etc. ?

Not sure what it is called, but apparently there id also a basic WORD word processor included with
Windows 10. Better than the previous ?

Any comments on (either) would be appreciated.

(or just download the free Libre Suite ?)

Can't Find the Office Mobile apps!

I recently purchased a LG Lancet Windows-based phone and have searched both the Windows Store & my all apps list, but I still cannot find the Office Mobile apps (Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, PowerPoint Mobile, etc.). The only Office-related app on the phone
is simply called Office and I just don't know if that app is the right one to use!!! Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

My MS Office 2013 apps have disappeared

I still cannot find my MS Office 2013 apps to pin them to my start menu. I found a folder labeled MS Excel.exe, but it was empty. These were listed in my list of apps and I pinned Word and Excel to my start screen, but after the last Windows update they
disappeared from the list of apps and from the start screen. The excel icon I had pinned to my task bar also was removed. I paid good money for this office suite and I should be able to use the apps without this hassle

 

Free MS Office Alternative

Nice!

I posted here not because I was interested in an alternative, since I have a subscription to Office 365, but it's nice to see all the other freebies.

Suggestion, please . . . For those who don't know how to get them, when you suggest a freebie, could you post a link?

Thanks for the other suggestions so far.
