## Review summary

AO Office is praised for OpenOffice/LibreOffice compatibility on iPad, a simple UI, multi-cloud support, and a one-time license that unlocks features like PDF export. It attracts users seeking privacy-friendly saving options and keyboard-friendly editing. However, recurring complaints focus on stability issues, licensing/purchasing friction, and document compatibility/editing limitations with Word and LibreOffice formats, plus password-protected files. Accessibility and autosave concerns are also noted in some reviews.

### Pros

- OpenOffice/LibreOffice compatibility on iPad with ability to edit LibreOffice docs and support for extensions/dictionaries
- Multi-cloud storage support across many services (not locked to a single provider)
- One-time lifetime license for full features (PDF export) and generally good value compared with subscriptions
- Keyboard-friendly workflow and straightforward, easy-to-use UI

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and stability issues across devices and updates
- Licensing and purchasing friction (reinstalling or upgrading may require paying again; confusing free trial)
- Document compatibility and editing limitations (problems with Word/LibreOffice rendering, password-protected documents, and missing advanced editing features)
