Navigating the Microsoft 365 Homepage
As of April 2025, office.com will redirect you to m365.cloud.microsoft
When you sign in at office.com , microsoft365.com , or m365.cloud.microsoft, you'll land in the Copilot-first Microsoft 365 Homepage. It's all about chat — but incorporates your core productivity tools too.
Main View: Chat with Copilot
You're greeted with Copilot Chat by default — a natural-language AI assistant to draft content, find files, summarize emails, and more.
Suggested prompts help you get started quickly.
Sidebar Navigation
The left sidebar gives you direct access to your daily apps and features:
Chat – keeps your Copilot conversations organized
Agents, Conversations, Pages – advanced AI tools and threads
Create – start a new Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, or Loop document
Apps – browse the full list of Microsoft 365 apps
Quick app buttons (varies by user): Outlook, Calendar, Teams, SharePoint, Visio, Power BI, OneDrive, etc.
Admins can pin additional apps via policy, so you'll see what your role gives you.
How to Use It
To start a task
Use Chat: ask Copilot to summarize a document, draft text, or find recent files in your account.
To create something new
Click Create to open a lightweight Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Loop doc in the browser—no install needed.
To switch apps
Use the Apps menu or sidebar icons to jump into Outlook (email), Teams (chat/meetings), or SharePoint/OneDrive (files).
