I've been looking for a good document viewer for my phone, particularly for viewing excel and word. I understand that DataViz probably won't even be supporting a Premium version with their lack of support, and that this would only be a viewer.

But to all those that have bought it, would you say that the 20$ price tag is justifiable?

My opinion would be no. For opening and editing, FreOffice is already good enough. I think, anyway. It can even create new word files, just can't create new presentations or spreadsheets (but it can open and - but don't quote me on this - edit them). The amount of fonts available on it by default is limited, so that may cause some annoyance with fonts being changed on you when some particularly fancy document is open, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's easy to put more fonts in if you just know what folder it goes in.

I think I've tried using FreOffice several times... but for some reason, whenever opening .xslx or .docx files, it closes on me. Other times, it doesn't even display the file...

Do you know when the latest version/update of FreOffice was released? I had it installed on my phone up until about last week.

Very recently. I use my phone for business and have been longing for a free usable app to manipulate office files. FreOffice seems to be that software...in the making. It needs more tweaking but the latest versiom will open 2007 files.

Premium is also out (somewhat). I suggest doing a search for the thread already out on this to find out how to get it.
I downloaded it and gave it a try but found it not very helpful because it doesn't support the languages I use..
