Bookmarks for PDF viewing on Android


Roadmap ID :  70547


 


Getting back to your important PDFs in your mobile devices just got easier. Use the new bookmark option in OneDrive for Android to add bookmarks to your important content so you can pick up where you left off. 


Now when you open a PDF on your Android device you would be able to add or remove bookmarks by  tapping the bookmark icon (on the top of your screen)  or by long-pressing anywhere on the page you want to tag.

Page rotation for PDF viewing on iOS and Android


Roadmap ID :  68855, 70548


 


You can now leverage the page rotation tool to rotate one page or multiple pages so you don’t have to switch your device’s screen orientation when reading a document in OneDrive.   


Simply, scroll to the page which you want to rotate. Press anywhere there isn’t text. Once a menu pops up, tap Rotate to rotate the page 90 degrees clockwise.

64-bit OneDrive (Public Preview)


Roadmap ID :  70694


 


We’re excited to announce that the 64-bit OneDrive sync client for Windows is now available as a public preview! Read more here.


 


We know this has been a long awaited and highly requested feature, and we’re thrilled to make it available for early access. You can now download the 64-bit version for use with OneDrive work, school, and home accounts.  


 


Dialog on First-Time deletion of File(s)


Roadmap ID :  70702


 


When a user deletes a file(s) for the first time, they will be shown a dialog to educate them that their file is in the OneDrive recycle bin where it can be restored. This will show up on subsequent deletes until the user checks the box stating they do not wish to see it again. Admins can turn off this notification all together with a group policy setting.
