Best free office app for iPad pro

I'm very new to this as I've never owned an Apple device before and I'm wondering what's the best office app for use on an iPad Pro ?

Or is there something already on there that would be good.

What I'm thinking about is wordprocessing and spreadsheets mostly . If they would easily print and I could easily transfer the files to a laptop user then that will be a real bonus .

Many thanks.

    You can try Apple's Pages and Numbers apps which are free in their App Store.

    Can also be accessed on iCloud.com and even shared by email too straight from those apps.

    Google also have Docs and Sheets which follow a similar process.

    If you have an AirPrint wireless printer set up then it's relatively easy to print straight from your iPad Pro.

    Thanks, I'm installing the Pages and Numbers apps right now.

    As I've only got the 32 GB model I need to keep a eye on the amount of space that this available. Therefore could anyone recommend a free file explorer app.

    Thanks again.

    Check the app store if you can install MS Office.

    Apples latest Numbers update breaks the app. I'm posting a new thread on it.
