| 2024-11-04 |  | | Very frustrating to use due to its complexity. Selecting text is almost impossible, maddening. The 2-finger method of enlarging the view doesn't work. Viewing PDFs is inconsistent. You can't easily move the cursor or even create a plain, unnumbered list. The imbedded help file is nearly worthless. Try doing an index search on the words bullet or cursor and nothing is found! It's the opposite of KISS. User friendly, this is not! |
| 2024-09-28 |  | | I loved this app before the ability to fine tune text size to fit into my chosen area was no longer allowed. I have need of fitting various amounts of text into a certain number of columns and could make font size smaller or larger than predetermined whole or half sizes to reach that goal (i.e. 7.3 size) Now it's equal to Google Sheets which now offers columns (only 3 so far) and limited font size selection. How about AOO Lite to ape Sheets and regular AOO desktop-style for flexibility? 5⭐prior |
| 2024-08-30 |  | | Completely worthless and unusable on Android. Has so much clutter on the screen the actual document consumes less than a quarter of the display. Seems to have no zoom options. Will not allow editing of documents. This is what happens when you try to use a desktop user interface on anything that is not a desktop. |
| 2024-07-30 |  | | This is excellent and exactly what I needed: a full version LibreOffice on my phone. Every other option compromised features or workflow sync options. It is a little crowded on a phone, but even someone clumsy like me can get up to speed quickly to update my existing docs. I was a bit thrown on the ODT version compatibility (I don't even know how to natively switch ODT versions on desktop) so I hope that support is added soon. Otherwise, it was an immediate upgrade for me. |
| 2024-06-05 |  | | Nice to have a fully functional OpenOffice app completely local on an Android device, not run remotely like a different developer did years ago. The only issues I've run into are related to default settings, and are really part of OpenOffice in general, not specific to Android or any other platform; and I've established workarounds by simply saving my own templates and always opening new documents from them instead of the using the standard "new" menu selection. |
| 2024-05-28 |  | | AndrOpen Office is an impressive achievement to port this software to Android. Very well done for the complexity. I'm still hacking through the complexity, macros and so on, there are some roadblocks, but I suspect it's my own learning curve as much as the software. One year later it has never updated. Can't get that to work. Good luck y'all. |
| 2024-02-20 |  | | A fair office suite with issues. While a bit querky at times. For instance.. You cannot edit and save a file if opened by tapping the file/icon. Support informed me you can edit and save if the file is opened within the app. While help references using open office's site, they consider AndrOpen a 3rd party app not associated with them. Some controls, like the scrolls in pop-ups, tabs on a spreadsheet, etc., are so small that they are unusable. You can resize a document, but not controls. |
| 2024-01-13 |  | | I now have to rate this as a 1 because I cannot get an answer as to a major bug that is making using this program extremely difficult. I have done a video screen capture of the problem and emailed it to tech support and cannot get them to address it. Many times when I hit space, the previous word is getting jumbled by some bizarre autocorrect bug. It makes typing long documents extremely painful. I don't understand why the author will not address this bug. I have the pay version. |
| 2023-10-22 |  | | Installed on my 10" Acer tablet (+USB keyboard and mouse). Surprised to find that after I'd paid the one-off £12.99 (-note how cheap, Microsoft!) the program truly allowed access to OneDrive and Google Drive as promised; I loaded and saved files successfully. Only had a few hours play so far, but it is truly a pleasure to use, especially as I can customise the toolbars to my heart's content. |
| 2023-10-21 |  | | As far as WinWord alternatives go, it's fairly alright (hence why I'm giving it 2 stars instead of 1). My problem is that it can't just open my files properly, instead having to open a copy because of "missing permissions" or some such BS. If that weren't bad enough, it insists on saving files in .odt format even when I expressly choose a different format. To top it all off, when I try to open the file on my computer, half the time I get an error message, saying the file is corrupted. Awful! |
