In my experience (I can't remember the version I tried but it was almost 1 year ago), the Android port of OpenOffice is anything but usable. It's an interesting technical demonstration of how a desktop application can be correctly ported to a mobile platform "as is" , but it lacks all the mobile interaction users want (and probably need) on devices with a 10" touch screen, virtual keyboard and no mouse. In my organization we're using OpenOffice on (Windows) desktops and we're still trying hard to find a mobile app we can suggest our users to download to edit ODF documents. IMHO, ultimately, the apps that that seemed to work best when editing ODF documents are the Google apps (Docs, Sheets and Slides). On iOs they have the limit (well, it's a limit for me!) that they can only open documents stored on your Google Drive. At least we didnt' find a way to open, e.g., an ODF attachment to a mail message.
