I searched this community and couldn’t find anything about odt, I found a few odt viewers on F-Droid and Aurora when I searched ‘odt’, but the only editors for odt, were ironically the proprietary Google Documents and Microsoft Word.
Have you found anything else?
I haven’t used it but looks like Collabora does it. You can add their report to f-droid: https://www.collaboraoffice.com/releases-en/collabora-office-on-mobiles-supporting-password-protected-documents-and-available-on-f-droid/
Yeah, Collabora works great, thanks!
Unfortunately, it’s not available in the official F-Droid repository, but only by Collabora’s own F-Droid repository. I don’t want to trust other package managers except those of the official F-Droid repo.
May I ask why? Using alternative sources from the vendors themselves usually isn’t any less secure than using the official F-Droid repos. It’s a common thing on Linux.
Well it seems they don’t publish a signing key, so that’s a good reason against it.
Has Collabora made its packages reproducible, so independent people can check if their package is built from the source code without modification?
But it’s the official Collabora repo?
Yes, but I don’t want to trust a vendor when I have Open Source.
That’s a nice find. Odt, ods, and odp, seems to work fine both on phone and tablet.
Collabora Office is the label on my Icon. Same as the name in Play. The Play publisher is Collabora Productivity limited. Rating 4.2 and user count 500K or more.
I do not actually use it much but a family member uses it all the time on their tablet. For me I use mostly Joplin for notes on Android.
I’ve been using Collabora Office recently, you can get it through F-Droid but you have to add their repo
Another user also recommended that and it’s been working great!
That’s great!
Open Document Reader https://www.f-droid.org/packages/at.tomtasche.reader/
LibreOffice Viewer https://www.f-droid.org/packages/org.documentfoundation.libreoffice/
Havent used either. Just came up as I searched ODT, which I didnt know was a file type until a moment ago. Idk why it wont show for you?
Ps. Idk if these are editors or just readers
One of them says Reader, the other says Viewer. I have seen both of them, and neither are editors, which is what I’m looking for.
ONLYOFFICE is quite good, although it prefers DOCX.
AndrOpen Office is an Android port of LibreOffice. It’s not on Fdroid, but Aurora has it. It works perfectly fine for me, although the UI is not android specific.
