Here are your Apple Rumors for today:
Office: Apple (AAPL) iPhone owners are now able to download new Microsoft (MSFT) Office apps, reports 9to5Mac. The new apps mark the first time that standalone versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint have been made available to iPhone users. Users of the apps can create and edit documents for free. These apps will replace the Office Mobile app, which required a subscription to edit documents.
Movie: In a recent interview, Aaron Sorkin, who is the screenwriter for the upcoming Steve Jobs biopic, said that there is enough content in Jobs’ life to make 10 movies, MacRumors notes. Sorkin said that there was a lot of pressure working on a movie about jobs. He said that the pressure is the same as what he normally faces when writing, but that there is something extra to it when it comes to Jobs. The screenwriter has spoken with several of the real-life versions of characters that will be in his Jobs biopic. He also said that he spoke with Jobs three times over the Apple founder’s life.
iOS: iPhone owners looking to upgrade to iOS 8 are running into a major problem, reports BGR. Many users that are running iOS 7 want to update to iOS 8, but they simply can’t. The reason behind this is that they don’t have enough free space on their devices for an over-the-air upgrade. The iOS 8 update takes up several GB of space and that problem is keeping users away from the new operating system. Despite this issue, Apple is still sending out email to users highlighting why they should be upgrading to iOS 8.
