With the latest version of Office for iPad, I've noticed that I have to log into each app each and everytime to my Office 365 account to access my documents. In previous versions I was always able to automatically connect to Office 365. I don't see anything that suggests a preference to stay logged in. It is annoying that this has to be done. The One Drive app is always logged in. I've tried deleting the Office Apps, and re-installing.

In the past all I had to do is start an app (ex: Excel) and the page that shows my documents would come up, it would show that I was logged in and my documents would show up such as the pinned, past week and older under the recent menu. Right now overtime I start an office app I get a blank screen with the option to log in.

Even after logging in if i go to the open document setting the iPad just flashes different shades of grey and with a sponge wheel saying "connecting". The only way out it seems is to either reset the iPad or force quit the app.
