Please update the APA stuff to 7th edition.

The app needs a revamp

Since I upgraded Mac OS to the latest Big Sur (on both my iMac and Macbook), I started having issues with services such as “Speak Chinese” ("There was a problem with the input to the Service” message pops up ) and “Convert text to simplified/traditional Chinese” (no response).
These shortcuts work fine in other apps but not in Word.

Currently the biggest issue editors have with Word: you can't comment on footnotes! The only way to do this is to insert text (in parentheses/different color/etc) which can potentially introduce errors, or to add a comment on to the footnote number in the text, which makes for some difficult navigating for the author. Please give us the ability to comment on footnotes!

a way to customize the format so that the area that you're typing stays in a certain range of the document. in other words, i hate that as i'm typing a document whatever i'm writing will ALWAYS be at the bottom of the document, even though it would be way easier for me if it was in the middle or top part of the screen. i would like to be able to choose to write exclusively in the top half of my screen -- it's way better for my neck

I would love to see more writing templates that focus on the genres that a college or university class would give like Narrative, Expository, Persuasive, Descriptive, etc....that would have written prompts all along the way to help me know what to write for that particular genre of writing.

Microsoft Word v16.48 (21041102) for Mac: Spelling Grammar/Advanced Language Settings - Portuguese Mode "Pre-reform" is NOT working.

Eg:
Pre-reform: Director ; Post-reform: Diretor
Pre-reform: Acção ; Post-reform: Ação

Is it possible to fix this? It's very important to many Portuguese users...

Thank you.

He was very domineering and abusive with irrational anger when I asked questions. I would need to insist and ask the question many times. He was not well trained and does not speak English fluently. He hung up on me when I was needing help, he refused. Why?

APA 7 would allow professionals to fully utilize Word for our professional presentations, and papers. I had a professor take off seven points because the software had incorrectly referenced multiple authors according to the version six platform. Also when using (Author et al., 2021) it incorrectly publishes as (Author, et a., 2021). I use Windows for work, and MAC for personal use, and both operating systems have the same limitations. Thank you very much for giving me an opportunity to share.

The "Generate a description for me" button for image alt-text is only available when the auto-generate option is active. We currently encourage our users to turn the auto-generate feature off because it is not yet accurate enough for accessibility compliance and it causes false returns from automated accessibility checkers that simply look for the presence of text. Having the "Generate a description for me" button available when users are prompted to add alt-text to an image would be a nice option if they are looking for help getting started.

This feature available in Word for Windows is incredibly valuable, especially for long documents. When in Print View, the ability to collapse sections to focus on the desired one is missing on Word for Mac.

Enable Side by Side as it is in the Windows version. I can't fathom why some of the features are not available on a Mac?!?!?!?!

I want to print or save a PDF copy of my document showing markups WITHOUT the space for comments. Please bring this back to Office 365!

When I copy and paste into Word, with my document in Web Layout, it will occasionally jump to the top of the document and force me to scroll all the way back down to the bottom where i was working. My support case number was, 1017875682, and we discovered that this was happening because i was pasting too close to the page break, which can't be seen on the web layout. it would be really cool if your team could find a way to make that not happen in web layout.

thanks so much!
