Microsoft has released a 'Hub Keyboard' for the iPhone. A Microsoft Garage project, Hub Keyboard lets you easily copy and paste recent items, search and share documents, and share contact information.

“Personally I don’t like switching between apps to do different things on my smartphone,” says Steve Won, a senior designer on the Office team who came up with the idea for Hub Keyboard about a year ago. “But all these different apps on a smartphone, they have to conform to rules of a keyboard and that got me thinking about the project as an interesting idea I wanted to explore more. We’re giving users a wider gamut of tools.”



Use Hub Keyboard when you need:
• Copied Text: Easily insert the last text you copied
• Documents: Grab and share URLs of Office 365 documents in OneDrive and SharePoint
• Contacts: Share information of a contact from your phone or your Office 365 account

You can download Hub Keyboard from the App Store for free.
