## Review summary

This Android text editor offers desktop-style performance and a Word-like experience with good usefulness and encoding/conversion features, making it appealing for students and professionals. However, recurring issues include saving/format compatibility problems, editing UX gaps (no multi-doc tabs and occasional focus glitches), and privacy concerns over broad file access permissions. Improvements in saving reliability, editing UX, and permission handling would broaden its appeal.

### Pros

- Very usable with high price/performance.
- Desktop-like, professional Word-like office suite feel on mobile.
- Easy to use and intuitive interface.
- Strong support for students and MS Word-like workflows.
- Encoding/format capabilities, including KOI-8 to DOCX conversions.

### Cons

- Saving reliability and DOCX compatibility issues (unable or unreliable save, formats can be ruined).
- Editing UX gaps: no multi-document tabs, focus instability, and missing navigation keys.
- Privacy concerns due to broad All Files Access permission requirements.
