SharePoint mobile App for iOS iPhone, iPad

Thy Nhat — Mon, 27 Jun 2016 06:30:48 +0000

After releasing of a series of Office apps for iOS such as Office365 Administration, PowerBI, Delve, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, OneDrive,…, As announced at the “Future of SharePoint” event on May 4th from Microsoft about they are working on the new SharePoint mobile app. On 21-Jun-2016, Office365 administrators got a official inform message about SharePoint mobile App for iOS release. With this app, Now you can untether and take your intranet with you in your pocket. Stay connected to important content, sites, portals and people from across your intranet while on the go. In the mean time, Microsoft is also working on Android and Windows Universal versions, which we expect to release before the end of this year. Below is some quick review about this product.

Avaialble for download
From 21-Jun-2016, the new SharePoint mobile app is available in the Apple App Store. It’s free download with your iCloud account.

Cloud and Onpremise support
After download, You can install the SharePoint mobile app on your iPhone, iPad or iPod. You can then sign in with SharePoint Online or SharePoint on-premises (2103 & 2016 version support) from the welcome screen.

Both SharePoint online and SharePoint Onpremise supported.

The Sites tab
From this tab, SharePoint app list all sites that you visit frequently and sites you’re following. This sites come from different site collections. If you click on a site to see recent activity, recent files and the site’s assets (documents, lists, subsites, pages and more). If your webpage is not support to transfer to mobile view, you may got the unsupport message or you can change to desktop view by click on tool box menu at bottom.

Access project site and check for all project document with mobile reable PDF and Office files. Vietnamese language was fully supported and display correctly.

You can also access left menu navigation and click on List menu to see all deployed applications as well as site content.

Check for all deployed applications and site content

All SharePoint data were displayed as list view event if that application is standard list, Calendar, customized list, Links, or Tasks,… look like below

Calendar with events were displayed as list view.

The Links tab

This tab list all sites which based on your permission or allowed for everyone in your company. If you are using Office365, this site come from available SharePoint site collection that created by SharePoint admin. For Office 365, I as expected for applications associated with subscription as such Microsoft Delve, Office 365 Video,… but I can not find them from list tab.

Not much data for links and resources link SharePoint app – Links tab

The People tab

As a staff directory phonebook, but list tab only listed for people that you are working with such as your members, your supervisor or colleagues. By tap on a contact, you can see their personal info like Fullname, Jobtitle, Phone, Email,…

People contact list and personal detail info

From the first look, this release of SharePoint mobile iOS app works well with Office 365 SharePoint Online. For SharePoint onpremise, administrator should improve functionality to make it compatible with SharePoint mobile app like resources as well as People directory. I didn’t test this app with SharePoint 2016. But from my point of view, this app bring to SharePoint users a good concept. While Microsoft improve this app and develop for Android and WinMobile, you can try to use it and give Microsoft your idea and feedbacks via:

User Voice: https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/
Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/SharePoint
Or you can email to me for helping on bring your idea to MVP community and Microsoft Product team.

New UX for SharePoint Online Document Library

Thy Nhat — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 04:31:41 +0000

Office 365 users can now get started on the OneDrive experience on SharePoint Document Libraries.. This functionality was launched into Office 365 libraries last week. The new menus for document are really what users have been seeing for years in their OneDrive and drives uniformity on SharePoint 2016. This new UI has been tested on OneDrive for Business and allows us to get a glimpse of the future plan for SharePoint.

Right now this function is optional to all business subscription, the new document library is actually turned offon almost every sites automatically. Users can chose to utilize it in their respective groups then decide to revert it back or not after testing it it out. The new Office 365 menu sneak peek is available by clicking the “Check it out” button. Users can press the x to close it or check it out.

What is new Document Library UI

The modern Library menu is similar to OneDrive activities menu. If you appliedfor customized Master Pages in SharePoint, your master page will not apply to this new UI.

First look on new UI/UX Document library, there are some noted:

Microsoft removed the Ribbon and replaced it by a simpler and doable top menu such as Move or Copy data within the selection, Alert me, Versioning activities, Get link, Sharing and even more…
You are now able to “Pin” a document to always show on top of the library

New Quick Start menu on the still left
Library Search that shows on top left and results almost instantly
Context menu is clearer and easier for business users since it’s focused to important functionality. Users can right click to bring the contextual menu up.
Column headers has now a new menu with more advantage features to allow user to show/hide more columns, this way allow them to manage properties of documents without navigating to a different page. As well as create columns directly from context menu
A new Thumbnail grid viewers to quick preview documents from the inside your library

How to access Document Libraries settings

Most Content managers/administrators can be surprised on how to access Document library settings (which was easy on the classic Ribbon button). At the moment, you will have to navigate to Site Content page by click on Top Right setting menu -> Site Content or you can quick access a viurl https://yoursharepointsite/_layouts/15/viewlsts.aspx, then click on Settings menu as below

How to change back to Classic UI

It’s really exciting to see the new menus with fewer clicks to the most frequent functions and features, and a much more contextual and made easier experience. If you are not interesting to model UI, There are 2 ways that you can change back to classic SharePoint

Simply slide down in the left navigation and choose “Return to classic SharePoint”
From List Settings page -> click on Advanced settings -> from the Document Library advanced settings page, noted a new section in the bottom of the page “List experience” that allow you to decide where is the UX applied for current Document Library

To conlude, Office 365 and SharePoint Online is changing every days. Of course the traditional document library is still in SharePoint 2016 andOneDrive for business is still have pending issues (Restrictions and limitations when you sync SharePoint libraries to your computer through OneDrive for Business), but I hope Microsoft keep update and maintain it.
For more information about this new UX for SharePoint Online Document Library, Microsoft will update us on their launch of May 4th. What are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments below.
