About this app

Developer Description

LibreDocs - Run LibreOffice on Android

This is really LibreOffice running on your device. It is full featured and professionally supported. This runs the Linux desktop edition of LibreOffice.

About LibreOffice:
Open source productivity software. Includes the following capabilities:
Writer:
A word processor with similar functionality and file support to Microsoft Word or WordPerfect. It has extensive WYSIWYG word processing capabilities, but can also be used as a basic text editor. It can also create fillable forms via PDF or the Forms tab.

Calc:
A spreadsheet program, similar to Microsoft Excel or Lotus 1-2-3. It has several unique features, including a system which automatically defines series of graphs, based on information available to the user.

Impress:
A presentation program resembling Microsoft PowerPoint. Impress has support for multiple file formats including PPTX, ODP, and SXI.

Draw:
A vector graphics editor, raster graphics editor, and diagramming tool similar to Microsoft Visio, CorelDRAW, and Adobe Photoshop. It provides connectors between shapes, which are available in a range of line styles and facilitate building drawings such as flowcharts. It also includes features similar to desktop publishing software such as Scribus and Microsoft Publisher, but the features are not on par with desktop publishing software. It can also act as a PDF file editor.

Math:
An application designed for creating and editing mathematical formulae. The application uses a variant of XML for creating formulas, as defined in the OpenDocument specification. These formulas can be incorporated into other documents in the LibreOffice suite, such as those created by Writer or Calc, by embedding the formulas into the document.

Base:
A database management program, similar to Microsoft Access. LibreOffice Base allows databases to be created and managed, and the generation of forms and reports of database content. Like Access, it can be used to create small embedded databases that are stored with the document files (using Java-based HSQLDB and C++ based Firebird as its storage engine), and for more demanding tasks it can also be used as a front-end for various database management systems, including Access Database Engine (ACE/JET), ODBC/JDBC data sources, and MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and Microsoft Access.

How to use this LibreDocs Android app:
When using the graphical interface, use LibreOffice just like normal. But here are some specifics to the Android interface.
* Tap with one figure to left click.
* Move mouse by sliding around one finger.
* Pinch to zoom.
* Press and hold and then slide one finger to pan (useful when zoomed in).
* Slide two fingers up and down to scroll.
* If you want to bring up a keyboard, tap on the screen to get a set of icons to appear and then click the keyboard icon.
* If you want to do the equivalent to a right click, tap with two fingers.
* If you want to change the desktop scaling, find the service android notification and click the settings. You have to stop and restart the app after changing this settings for it to take effect.
This is all easier to do on a tablet and with a stylus, but it can be done on a phone or using your finger as well.

To access files from the rest of Android, there are many useful links in your home directory (/home/userland) to places like your Documents, Pictures, etc. No need to import or export files.

If you don't want to, or cannot pay the cost of this app, you can run LibreOffice via the UserLAnd app.

Do the job well from my tablet. The panning, zooming and scrolling is awkward. Can you add some way to install fonts from this app?

Seemed good and all, but the native resolution was far to high to be useful. 2x scaling made the interface navigable, but the resultant loss of quality in the app's appearance made it unpleasant to work in. So I uninstalled it. Too late to get a refund, though, unfortunately.

The good: app runs LibreOffice on Android. The bad: it runs it as a desktop application; the menus, buttons, fonts,etc, are tiny. You can zoom in to see them but cannot move the zoomed in view around so that you can see anything. Overall: a nice try perhaps, but a flawed execution. I use a Zfold3, so have plenty of screen room--this app does not make effective use of it.

Why did I have to pay for a piece of free and open source software? Does TDF know youre selling a copy of their software? It is highly frowned upon to sell software under MPL 2.0
