Here’s a catch! You might not be able to use these apps if the update is not rolled out in your country. To make sure if you can use these apps as add-ons, here are two important points:
- Your Google Docs and Sheets apps are updated.
- You have already installed the supported apps on your Android devices. Otherwise, you will have to first install these add-ons and then you can use them as Google Docs & Sheets add-ons.
If the above conditions are met, then open Google Docs or Sheets on your Android device and then open a document for editing.
Now you have to access Add-ons menu which can be accessed using those “three vertical dots” icon. Then after, you can install any of these supported add-ons and use them. If not this, then use Google Play Collection and there you can find all the Android apps which have been integrated with Google Docs & Sheets.
