LibreOffice Viewer for Android out of Beta, available as a separate app on Google Play


LibreOffice Viewer Beta for Android

LibreOffice, a community-driven software for desktop launched LibreOffice Viewer for Android as Beta earlier this year. Now the app is out of beta and is available as a separate app on Google Play. This Open Source app for smartphones and tablets lets you view documents, spreadsheets, and basic presentations in Open Document and Microsoft Office formats.

It has basic editing capabilities, like modifying words in existing paragraphs and changing font styles such as bold and italics. Editing is still an experimental feature which has to be enabled separately in the settings, and is not stable enough for mission critical tasks. “It will be enhanced to a fully fledged editing solution in the future, with the help of our steadily growing developer community”, says the company.
