I like this app, but it glitches and will combine and remove words randomly when editing documents. Frustrating. It has done this on three separate android phones and continues to be an issue over several years. Also, so help me, God, put the smart lookup / dictionary feature back on the mobile version if we are not getting access to whatever AI "tool" that is being embedded. It sucks having to switch between apps when the feature was so useful.

Being able to use the same documents I have on my phone is really helpful. That way I don't need to turn my laptop on each time I need to write! the app itself is great but the only problem I have with it is not being able to change word sizes to specific numbers, there's a list of incomplete numbers instead of being able to just type in what I want

The word app on android works well but is obviously limited in comparison to the functionality you get with the desktop app. However, it is perfect for creating and editing documents on your phone. and in a pinch, you can share your documents over the teams app if you are away from your desk.
