About the app:

Collabora Office for Android uses the same engine as LibreOffice for Windows, Mac, and Linux. This, combined with a new front-end based on Collabora Online, reads and saves documents similarly to LibreOffice desktop.

Collabora Engineers Skyler Grey, Tor Lillqvist, Tomaž Vajngerl, Michael Meeks, Miklos Vajna, Jan Holešovský, Mert Tümer and Rashesh Padia have been developing Android support since 2012, with the help of Google Summer of Code students Andrzej Hunt, Iain Billet and Kaishu Sahu.

Ratings and reviews

Perfect application for viewing and editing OpenDocument formats. A good companion app with Nextcloud for editing remote documents. I took stars off because I couldn't find a fit-to-screen view like in Word or Google Docs (I'll keep looking). Also, selecting blocks of text hides the keyboard rather than opening a "right-click" menu, making it difficult to edit. Finally, I'd like to easily move documents written on my phone to my Nextcloud.

Horrible app. Installed on a Lenovo tablet. At first it seemed pretty good. I used it to keep a diary of a recent vacation. Open it, edit it, save it and all is well. Then I tried to insert pictures and it would do it, somewhere. Not where I wanted them but ok. I only got 1 picture inserted. The next day the entire document was blank! Started all over and it only saved half of it. As soon as you add a picture, it basically becomes unusable.

It's nice to have a perfectly viable office suite on the most common and frequently used digital interface on the planet, Android, that doesn't force you to keep your documents in their cloud while reserving the right to use any data input into it to "improve their services"/legally spy on you, sell/provide that data to third parties, train AI, etc, unlike the most common alternative, Google Docs. It's not perfect, there is some minor ghosting from time to time; I blame Android.

What’s new

Welcome to Collabora Office 26.04!

We've been hard at work upgrading Collabora Office Mobile to 26.04, which brings improvements in interoperability and look-and-feel. We've also fixed some mobile-specific bugs, such as black borders which would display around some documents.

As always, the source code for our office suite is freely available online, however the location has moved. You can find our source code at https://gerrit.collaboraoffice.com/

Thank you so much for using Collabora!
