Maybe that port of Apache's AOO package should state very clearly that it is not an official port from Apache, but a third party port.

Also using the "standard" abbreviation of "AOO" can be an issue. Maybe "AnOO" would work.

Still, the issues I had with the package has stopped me from using it. As I stated originally, after 5 minutes, or so, I still was not able to do any typing, or anything else on the tablet. How long does a person need to wait after the "loading splash screen" to get to use the app?

I have a NOOK HD+
1.5 GHz OMAP4470 dual core processor
16 GB internal storage [1/5 used]
32 GB microSD card.
[I do not know what the actual RAM number is.]

So this tablet is not a low end one, according to the device specs. Taking 5 minutes, or more, to load is a real big issue for me.

There is no indication that AndrOpenOffice is even open source, although there 
is apparently significant (non-GPL) open source content.  You'll also notice 
that it does not appear to use any of the Apache OpenOffice trademarks or 
logos, at least not on the Google Play site.

Nothing wrong with it being a port. It just isn't being conducted by the Apache 
OpenOffice project.

There are disclaimers about "full features of ... " deeper in the material.

I guess we don't get to use AOO as a handy abbreviation for Apache OpenOffice any 
longer [;<).

I can't find either.


LibreOffice's port for Android is still in ALPHA, early alpha so I have
been told.

To find the AOO port. . . .
go to Google Play
search for OpenOffice
